2016 Camaro lemon
I recently purchased a 2016 camaro 2SS in March and have had alot of issues with the car. In short, it has a very bad grinding noise in the rear of the car. The dealership has attempted to fix the issue 5 times now, including replacing the entire rear end on a brand new car. This did not fix the issue. They also replaced the exhaust due to a broken valve. Has anyone else been experiencing issues like this? The car has now been in the shop 25 days within the 4 months. We have threatened to hire an attorney and pursue a lemon law but the dealership is not cooperating.

The dealer does not matter, GM takes over in a lemon law, your beef is with them. Good luck, sounds like you qualify. Stay off the forums from now on with moves you make.

Great first post. I'm sure your attorney can give better advice than the forum.

Agreed. The quickest way to ensure that all communication between you and the dealer stops cold is to threaten to hire an attorney. If you've 'threatened' to do so, might as well go ahead and hire one. Good luck to ya.

I owned a new '12 diesel dually that displayed a CEL before I was home from the dealership. It ended up going in multiple times, and over 30 consecutive days the last time with various fixes tried before they finally found the problem. A vendor's banjo fitting was incorrectly machined not allowing fuel to return to the tank. Their compensation was one truck payment and a nice door ding, and nowhere near enough. It was fine thereafter and I didn't bother lemoning it but it left a bad taste in my mouth for years. I didn't even think GM until this car came out.

Certainly sounds like a lemon qualifier to me. Lawyer up and go after GM for it. |

I took my car in on 5-31-16 with 1598 miles for the NPP rattle, rear end groan, and paint issues. The car is still there. The time out of service is ridiculous for new car; however, this is the first repair attempt for mine.

Why should he stay off the forum? He has every right to vent online. It's done everyday. I don't understand why you would tell him that.

If the rear end was grinding and the "entire" rear end was replaced, the noise would be gone. I don't believe the OP.
