My 2006 SS is a lemon
 
So after getting the transmission completely rebuilt just a couple of months ago, My serpentine belt broke 2 days ago, this is a belt that is only a year old. Today I get the belt fixed and was told that I have a bad pulley. 2-hours after after driving the car....the radio completely stops working. I thought it might be a fuse, but when I turn the dash lights on, it lights up as usual except for the screen...so this couldn't be a fuse.

did you do a car fax?

bwill314 08-01-2011 08:06 PM

Yes, I got the car at 9,000 miles and now it is at 87,000. When I purchased the car I got a car-fax that was clean, no issues at all.

how long have you owned it?

bwill314 08-01-2011 08:07 PM

I've owned it since July 13th 2007.

i wouldn't necessarily call it a lemon then, sounds like an electrical issue, im not sure what there are for recalls for the 7th gen SS's but there may be

Bwill sorry about your misfortune but you where able to put 78,000 miles on it I assume trouble free. I hope your luck turns around for you after these fixes.

i would say if you have owned it since 07 it isnt as bad. just acting up a little bit and hopefully once you get these issues fixed it will stay problem free.

the only recall was on the power steering hose i think

That was the only one I was made aware of by GM
