Car is falling apart

[Phillip McCaffrey]

I dont know wtf is going on with my car but it and the dealership are really starting to piss me off. I have so many problems with it and i have been to the dealership at least 10 times with ABSOLUTELY nothing done to correct it.

Problems:
1) MAJOR miss in the engine (or something close) causing my car to vibrate like in Jurassic Park or some **** when they are getting chased by dinosaurs

2) Tensioner Pulley (sp?) or something on the that loop is making this god-awful wining noise everytime i cold start the car (its now starting to do it on every start) and goes away after car is on for a bit

3) Half my interior is the horrid faded color while the rest of it looks like brand new

4) I dont even think i have any weather seals on my car (or at least thats what it sounds like) because when i am going down the freeway or highway way it sounds like the window is wide open...

5) My clutch is making this FUBAR noise that they THINK is the throw-out berring (sp?). Sounds like a damn blender when the clutch is depressed.


so as you can see my new car (25,000 miles on it) is sounding and in some places lookin like $hit. What makes it all so so so bad is that everytime i take it into the dealership they either give me some bull**** excuse or fix something that has nothing to do with the problem in the first place...

I love the Camaro but i am seriously starting to get worried because my warranty runs out it october and so far nothing is being done to fix these problems... :(

All very normal problems you should be able to fix yourself. GM is not known for their customer service.

The miss is either plug(s)/wire(s)/coil(s).

The whining can usually be fixed with some belt spray and/or grease.

The interior sounds like it needs some TLC. Try some Armor All to keep it from fading more.

There is a lot or road/wind noise with our cars. Replace the seal if it bothers you that much, or just turn the stereo up.

The TO bearing is always going to make an annoying noise. I wouldn't worry about it till the clutch goes out. Checking out the TO bearing requires removing the tranny, and nobody wants to do that if they don't have to.

falling apart you say? lol...

whining noise - check for belt wear.
getting any codes? if it's vibrating most likely there are some codes

get the clutch checked by professional.

I beleive (sp believe) forgiving them is gods funtion (sp function), our jobs (job) is to arrange the meeting

Because it is in your sig like that, I wanted to help you in case you hadn't re-read it. Please don't take this the wrong way, as we all make typo's.
