CAMARO6 - View Single Post - Should I not buy a 2016 because of the problems?

Sorry. I cannot recommend getting a 2016. This car has been a nightmare to own. Everything from the constant exhaust rattle that has no real fix to the terrible transmission problems and everything in between. It's a real shame cause this car is quite the performer but living with it on a daily basis is getting tiresome. I have more hope for the 2019 model year.

If you were to buy a 2016, bring a checklist and check for:
Exhaust rattle while in stealth/tour mode
Transmission shudder while switching between v8/v4 mode
Harsh and clunky shifts
Rear differential groan
Warped rotors when stopping from highway speeds
Windshield fogging
Front-end clunk when turning at parking lot speeds

There may be more but thats what I have experienced in my car. Best of luck!
