Im just curious if there are any known problems going around with the Monte Carlo's?? Whether its a recall or just stuff thtsa been known to go wrong. Right now My cars getting a whole new right rear taillight assembly cause theres all condensation.

 

Chris,

The only recalls I have heard about are weld issues with the airbag, child restraint clips and a steering linkage lubrication issue. If your just purchased yours, these recalls should have been taken care of.

As far as rumors, I hear there are longevity issues with the trans, but I have also heard the related problems may have been due to dirty trans fluid. Just make sure you have your trans on a maintenance schedule list. Mine just turned over 20K and I will more than likely have the trans filter fluid changed the next oil change.

I've had to replace my brake rotors. Have 75k miles on it. Bought my 2000ss new. Wonder if anyone out there has had luck with the 'green stuff' brake pads, or ceramic on oem style rotors?

 

I was driving home in a rain storm last night and my info center (right in front of the rearview mirroe) started leaking water! I called the dealer today and they told me that my sunroof has drain lines that are plugged. They will fix it at no cost-but i will find out where these lines are.

 

Man, that sucks. What year Monte do you have??

You I have a 2003 Comp. Yellow SS and Im sure all the other Owners Of this color can vouch I think birds think it the sun and they fly towards my car and when they get near it they find out it's not the sun and they crap on it. and This winter on sunny day I'll go out for lunch and find my car covered with flys and other bugs they love this yellow. expecally during the fall. I love my Car but I Like the Black also.
