If the stereo breaks, fine, you can drive it around until you get it fixed. If a failure that causes the car to be inoperable occurs, it's a major ordeal. Especially if you're stranded on the highway at 3 in the morning.
That's why something like this is inexcusable and GM needs to issue a full scale recall on them, mail letters to the owners advising people to stop driving their cars, GM then needs for their dealers to arrange for towing the cars to the dealer for replacement of the valve springs, and in the mean time provide the customer with a free loaner.
The continued incompetence of that company is mind blowing, baffling, and quite sad. I love my Camaro like everyone here, but I do not mince words when I say I am not a fan of GM as a company. Since their bankruptcy you'd think they'd have learned their lesson. Obviously not.
There are other car companies who would have quickly done all of that and the Camaros with the bad run of valve springs would have all been fixed with the good valve springs by now and everyone would be happy.

Also, and this is the most important part IMO, when you do have a major breakdown/issue, you're still required to make your payments on a car that you're not getting to drive. So, you're not getting what you paid for. There is no other instance in life where I'd put-up with that. But, when it comes to a new vehicle, they expect you to. I understand that crap happens. But, the way GM is handling this leaves A LOT to be desired.
