Many minor issues with my Camaro. Compensation??

So I've had what I think are minor issues since taking delivery of my Camaro at the end of January. First, my rear driver side speaker went out, followed by my driver dash speaker, then my passenger recliner went non-op, and now my front driver and passenger seat covers have to replaced as they seem to have been cut too short and are showing the foam from the inside of the seats.

My question is for all the members who have had or are currently dealing with any issues... Has there been any kind of compensation and or credits for anyone??

I ask as I have been in contact with a GM Senior Advisor regarding my issues and she is telling me that that conversation won't happen until all work has been completed with my vehicle. Any ideas as to what to expect?

Thanks ahead for any info..

The best they would do is give you a loaner and fix the issues you have.

The most an area zone service rep will award you is your a single monthly payment on the car, but that is doubtful, if the parts are avail and repairs are being done in a timely manner.

Hope not. Wondering why the Senior Advisor wouldn't just shut me down instead of leading me on regarding the subject.

It'll be one month I've been dealing with these issues on March 16th. Only problems they've fixed so far are the two speakers that went out. So far its been "the parts aren't in yet" and just recently "we're all booked till next week". I wonder what GM considers a "timely manner" lol.

All that you might be offered is a free service, but don't hold your breath.

You have a warranty on the car ,and they are performing the warranty work. Why would you think you are owed any more? It sucks that you are having multiple issues, but if they are correcting each one, then they are holding up to their end of the deal. They you get back at companies that you feel wronged you and to not purchase anymore of their products.

Because some of his and others issues is not just something that broke, its Quality Assurance issues that should have never left the factory. Yeh there should be compensation.

Not only did I have a 8 hour road trip each way without being able to listen to my music loud, but because of the seat recliner being non-op I also had to indure my wife's complaining about it which was only made worse when I tried turning up the volume to drown her voice out. I think any man would want compensation after that. Lol

Im surprised with all the small things people are dealing with. Many of these issues could have easily been avoided. Still, with all that being said, I truly am in love with my car. As are most owners. I just wonder how much more in love all of us would be if not for these annoyances. Lol

Well , you didn't say your wife was involved. Of course you should be compensated.
