COMPLETE LOSS OF POWER STEERING , RECALL WAS ISSUED FEBRUARY 7TH. I AM EXPERIENCING THIS ISSUE ALMOST DAILY WHILE MY VEHICLE IS IN MOTION ANYWHERE AND THERE IS STILL NO REMEDY FOR THIS ISSUE.

THE WINDOW IN THE CONVERTIBLE TOP IS COMING OUT. I WAS TOLD THAT THIS IS NOT COVERED ON WARRANTY BECAUSE I WAS 2000 MILES OVER. WITH THE AGE OF THIS VEHICLE THIS NOT HAVE HAPPENED. I BOUGHT THE CAR LAST YEAR.

THE FRONT AND BACK WINDOWS GET A FILM ON THEM. WE WERE TOLD IT WAS BECAUSE OF THE LEATHER SEATS. WHEN THE CAR HAS BEEN SITTING WHEN YOU START THE CAR THERE IS A SHIFT FLARE FROM 1ST TO 2ND SPEED. IT DOES IT ONE TIME AFTER IT'S BEEN SITTING FOR AN HOUR OR SO.

MY CAMARO SHAKES VIOLENTLY WHEN THE CAR CRUISES AT AROUND 1,200 TO 1,400 RPM. I HAVE TAKEN IT BACK TO THE DEALER SEVERAL TIMES AND HAVE HAD THE TRANSMISSION TRIPLED FLUSHED. THE PROBLEM GOES AWAY FOR A FEW DAYS AND THEN RETURNS. THE DEALER SAYS THAT THEY CANNOT DO ANY MORE TO RECTIFY THE PROBLEM, BUT THE VIBRATION IS GETTING WORSE. I AM CONCERNED FOR BOTH THE SAFETY AND DECREASED VALUE OF MY CASE AS A RESULT OF GM IGNORING THIS PROBLEM. THE PROBLEM HAS BEEN PRESENT SINCE I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE IN 2018.

DEALERSHIP IS AWAITING GENERAL MOTORS ANSWER ON WHAT TO DO BUT IT'S STILL LISTED FOR SALE ON WEBSITES
