Re: Quality of GM products
You know, I have always stood up for my car, a 1997 Camaro coupe V6 5 speed. But, I have had so much go wrong with it. Admitedly, I drive it pretty hard, but I also keep it well maintained. I bought the car used with 73,000 miles back in 2001, and it now has just under 90,000 miles.
Here is a list of everything that has gone wrong. My sun visor fell into my lap when I flipped it down, My power steering pump has blown twice and my rack and pinion was blown once. My front door speakers are blown, I had a rear main seal leak, my drivers side power window quit working, I have an exhaust rattle, one of the heads on the engine cracked and the water pump gave out, my gas peddle broke on the freeway, the throttle linkage to be exact. The car runs a bit rough although I'm not sure it's just the nature of the V6. I may be forgetting something else.
As far as the interior being shit. It does the job, and I have the first year of the refined interior (1997) Overall, I love drving my car and I love how it looks, but in all honesty, I now know why these cars were discontinued. GM must have gotten so many complaints with these cars they just said fuck it and canned em'
