1998 Chevrolet Camaro review from North America

T-Tops started to leak under 10K miles. Dealer covered (however they claimed it would always be a problem on T-Tops eventually).

"Check Engine" Light came on about 24K miles. Car would barely run as soon as this light came on. I took it to Pep Boys, as they were around the corner. They stated that it needed a tuneup. I advised the car was under warranty and to let me know if any problem they found should be taken to the dealer (my mistake!). One thing leads to another, and over 1000 dollars later I have my car back from Pep Boys. Next day the check engine light comes back on again, although no drive problems this time. I took it to the Dealer who said they could not cover it under warranty because someone else had touched it (Pep Boys). Took it back to PB, they could reset the computer to make the light go out, but couldn't make it stop randomly coming on. So, I have been living with random check engine light since 24K miles.

36K miles - while driving, the shifting became more and more difficult. Could barely force it into First to get out of the street to a parking lot. Got it towed to a shop. Clutch, Transmission parts, seals, etc. and $1300 later my car is running again.

GM has lost a customer for life because they would not cover or even partially cover my warranty, even though I mistakenly took it elsewhere first to get fixed.

The car rides nicely, although after the first year it is rather bumpy. Passenger floor/seating is very uncomfortable due to the bulky floor on the passenger side.
