Others have mentioned this already, but I just went over my car to prep it for Camaro Fest. My upper stabilizer link nuts were way loose! I was thinking most people were having trouble with the lowers. My lowers were fine, but the uppers were scary loose.

Mine does the same thing. I already took it in for the service bulletin re-torqueing but guess I'll check the alignment too.

I wouldn't describe it as really squirrelly, but I did notice the car not feeling quite as stable as it originally did while doing some spirited driving around traffic circles.
I haven't driven it since I tightened the nuts, but I can't imagine it won't be at least a little better. Sorry, I don't have pics. It would have been tough to see, but both sides were about 3-4 full turns from being torqued properly. |

You sure you didn't accidentally push the "Mustang Mode" button? Could happen to anyone...

First post, first Camaro, similar issue. My '09 CTS-V with more power, less tire and older technology was much more planted. Must be all the Texas cars... I think my swaybar links are loose and I will be taking it to the dealer to have it looked at. Hope it is minor and a quick easy fix. Otherwise I have little confidence in a tech locating and fixing. Maybe I need to be more optimistic.

^^^This^^^
If you mess with any configurations of the car the balance will be affected..... tire pressures are very important.... lowering springs and other modifications can dramatically change the feel of this car..... the way it was designed and intended....... Mine is completely stock and I have no ill effects of any kind......
