WHEN DRIVING OVER ANY BUMP IN THE ROAD, FRONT END CLUNKS VERY LOUD. IT CAN BE DESCRIBED AS SOMETHING LOOSE ON THE FRONT END. SAFETY CONCERN AS I MAY LOOSE ABILITY TO CONTROL VEHICLE. SOUNDS LIKE SUSPENSION RELATED. IT IS A 2010 CAMARO I PURCHASED IN 2010 AND THE ISSUE HAS ALWAYS BEEN THERE. DEALER SEEMS NOT TO BE ABLE FIND ANYTHING WRONG. TEST DROVE ANOTHER AND SAME ISSUE. *TR

I PURCHASED MY 2010 CAMARO, IN AUGUST,2010, I NOTICED THIS FRONT END POPPING NOISE SHORTLY AFTER I PURCHASED IT 300 KMS, I TOOK IT TO MY DEALER,AND THEY CHECKED IT OUT,THEY AGREED THEIR WAS OBVIOUS A NOISE. THEY WEREN'T AWARE OF ANY PROBLEMS WITH THE CAMARO UNTIL I MENTIONED THE TBS # PIO197 GM HAD IN PLACE. I WENT WITH THE SERVICE TECH. ON A ROAD TRIP AND HE AGREED THERE WAS A NOISE, HE FOLLOWED THE INSTRUCTIONS ACCORDING TO THE TBS,AND TOLD THERE IS NOTHING THEY CAN DO UNTIL GM ACKNOWLEDGES THAT THERE IS A PROBLEM,AND WOULD HAVE TO ABIDE BY THE TSB, I HAVE BEEN IN TOUCH WITH OTHER CAMARO OWNERS WHO IS EXPERIENCING THE SAME PROBLEM, WHO HAVE GONE TO THEIR DEALER AND HAVE THEM SAY IT IS NORMAL. OTHER PEOPLE THAT OWN THE CAMARO IS NOT EXPERIENCING THE SAME PROBLEM ,THEREFORE HOW CAN IT BE NORMAL WHEN ALL CARS DON'T HAVE THIS PROBLEM. YOU PAY THIS KIND OF MONEY FOR A VEHICLE AND THIS IS THE SERVICE WE GET FROM GM IN RETURN,I FELT THAT WHEN YOU PURCHASE A VEHICLE FROM GM THEY ARE IS SUPPOSE TO BE FAITHFUL AND LIVE UP TO IT'S BINDING CONTRACT WRITTEN IN IT'S WARRANTY. MY FIRST CHOICE WAS TO PURCHASED A DODGE CHALLENGER, BUT CHANGED MY MIND BECAUSE I LIKE THE STYLE A LITTLE BETTER, BUT IF I COULD CHANGES THINGS I WOULD HAVE STUCK WITH MY FIRST CHOICE. I WILL BE DETERMINED TO MAKE PEOPLE AWARE OF THIS PROBLEM AND LET PEOPLE/ MEDIA KNOW THAT GM PRODUCTS/SERVICE AND THE QUALITY OF THERE PRODUCT IS JUST ONE BIG HEADACHE. AND DON'T STAND BEHIND THEIR PRODUCT. WHY DON'T GM ACKNOWLEDGE THIS PROBLEM AND FIX IT AND MAKE ALL US HAPPY CAMARO OWNERS,THIS PUBLICITY WILL NOT HELP THE SALE OF GM PRODUCTS. CHECK OUT THE FORUMS IN 5THGEN. CAMARO UNDER( POPPING IN THE FRONT END) IF YOU WANT TO SEE HOW MANY CAMARO OWNERS ARE EXPERIENCING THIS PROBLEM. MY CAR IS IN WINTER STORAGE AT THE MOMENT WITH 1200 KMS ON IT, AND IS HOPING THERE WILL BE FIX IN PLACE BEFORE I TAKE IT ON THE ROAD IN THE SPRING. *TR
