Camaro flaws, true or not?
This video points out 6 major flaws with the 2019 Camaro, not sure which engine though. Is this true? Considering a new ZL1, should I be concerned? 1. Defective power steering 2. Excessive oil consumption 3. Passenger air bag defect 4. Premature timing chain wear 5. Spun cam bearings 6. Head gasket leak/failure |

clickbait. You could make a video like this for pretty much any car, just look up recalls, etc.

Just buy the ZL1 and don't stress. That video is horse shit. (This is coming from a Mustang owner)

Yes. All true. Also Camaros are behind the following:
1) Male pattern baldness 2) The decline of civility in local politics 3) Flat beer 4) The death of rock music 5) Random infestation of the dung beetle

So far my 2017 ZL1 has been good and my old 2016 2SS was good too!

I have had my 2018 ZL1 for a little over 14 months now, I have not experienced any of the fake shit the OP is asking about.
I have, however, experienced poor fuel mileage. Especially when REALLY enjoying my car. Guess I am one of the luck ones...

They forgot #7, known to wear out rear tires faster.
