And The List Grows

OK, so lets count the reasons I have returned to the dealer. Or will be Returning in the future.

1. NPP Rattle (Replaced entire system after waiting a month for the exhaust to show up)

2. Leather on Driver Side Seat Replaced (came undone at the recline handle)

3. Returning for Warped Rotors

4. Returning for Pain issue on Hood (smudge thats under clear)

5. Oh ya....NPP Rattle on Second Exhaust System.

Heads are gunna roll

I could be wrong but I don't believe the 2011 had NPP as an option so I assume they have a 6th gen and haven't updated their garage.

Let seee....

So far I have;

Slow to start when doing a quick warm start after turning off (like a short fill up or ran in the house to grab something etc)

Tach gauge bounces during decel (techs did a "scan" didn't find crap) Starting bouncing right when I left the dealer, sent video to Tech and tech never responded so I decided to just live with it. If they don't care to return my texts after asking to be texted with more evidence, then I don't want to know what they'll do to my ride while it's being worked on regarding an issue that requires the entire dash to be torn apart. I'll hold off until I either trade in or want to sell it.

NPP rattle (epoxy on ceramic fix) I have a huge issue with this, but whatever; I wasn't going to put epoxy on my 900$ option. I let them do it, and if it comes back, the car is going straight back to the dealer.

MyLink touchscreen complete failure. Touch screen went completely unresponsive to touch for a day, came back after a cold start a few hours later. The MyLink went completely dark once, was the last straw, but low and behold Monday morning it booted up just fine.

Wheel ticking sound issue thing. This one is a funny one. My wheels are powder coated so I don't feel like going in for this and having the powder get destroyed... But I think I may have solved this myself by retorquing the wheels (bulletin says to clean hubs, i'll do this when I change the tires)


If it's any consolation; I had just as many problems with my ford.

Mechanically the car has been sound ! I went on a cruise with a few mustang buddies and completely decimated the 5.0's, so we do have that going for us.

for some unfortunate reasons... i get having these 2016 camaro issues.. FIRST my 2LT: GPS issues that i had to go back in the dealership for 3-4 times.. i ended up trading it for a 2SS... now, the 2SS: rear diff sound issues and this door/dash squeaking.. worst is, my first dealership that worked on my car had me waiting 4-5 hrs onky to tell me that the sound was NORMAL and that they cant change my rear diff fluids since the one they have is the same fluids as the one that comes with the car when you purchase them.. damn!!! makes me dont want to purchase another camaro AGAIN!!!... theyve gotta be kidding me!!! a car worth around 45 gran should ALWAYS pass QC and be released without any issues... frustrating!!!!!

i meant they wont change the diff fluids since the one they have is the same as the one that came with the stock fluid (of my car) when i purchased it.. sounds dumb!?! --after hearing this reasons, i gathered myself and turned my back and went off. that was the most stupid explanation i got from them.

So they refused to change it at all?

They didn't even want to put the OE-spec stuff they had back in?

Wow. My dealer is pretty bad - refused to put DOT-4 brake fluid in, even though the manual states they should...because "It's not the fluid that came with the car". But at least they swapped out the old brake fluid for new....

If I understand you correctly, that's crazy.

Speak with the service manager. The fluid is contaminated:
