ROTORS WARPED AT 6K MILES; DEALER REFINISHED SAME. REPAIR LASTED ROUGHLY 6K MILES BEFORE PROBLEM RETURNED. AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS (60MPH +) IF BRAKES ARE APPLIED FRONT WHEELS SHAKE SEVERELY, CAUSING LOSS OF CONTROL. IN A PANIC SITUATION, I DON'T THINK THE CAR WOULD BE CONTROLLABLE. DEALER SOLUTION IS TO RESURFACE ROTORS A SECOND TIME AND REPLACE IF PROBLEM RETURNS. THIS APPEARS TO BE A WIDESPREAD PROBLEM WITH CAMAROS, AND I FAIL TO SEE HOW REPLACING ROTORS WITH THE SAME PART WILL SOLVE THE PROBLEM. THIS IS A HIGH PERFORMANCE VEHICLE CAPABLE OF 150MPH + SPEEDS, AND SHOULD HAVE A BRAKING SYSTEM TO MATCH. *AK

MY CAR HAS DONE A 'TINK-TINK' SOUND SINCE I TOOK IT OUT OF THE DEALER WITH ONLY 8 MILES ON THE ODOMETER. EVERY TIME I PUT IT IN DRIVE OR REVERSE, IT MAKES A DOUBLE TINK-POP FROM UNDER. WHEN YOU ACCELERATE, IT SOUNDS AGAIN, AND SOMETIMES SOUNDS AS THE TRASMISSION CHANGES GEARS (AUTOMATIC) OR YOU BRAKE. I'M CONCERNED THAT IT COULD…

WHEN YOU ACCELERATE, IT SOUNDS AGAIN, AND SOMETIMES SOUNDS AS THE TRASMISSION CHANGES GEARS (AUTOMATIC) OR YOU BRAKE. I'M CONCERNED THAT IT COULD BREAK WHILE DRIVING, AND CAUSING A POTENTIAL HAZARD WITH A CRASH AS IT BECOMES UNDRIVEABLE. *AK
