& I bought an 06 SS and I have had nothing but problems with it. I have replaced the dash twice and it is now coming apart again. The power steering pump is going out. There are creaking and cracking noises coming from up under my car. The back end had to be repainted, the tire sensors are constantly going off. I have never had this many problems with a vehical and Chevy will not do anything about it but give me the run around. I did not pay $32,000 for a car to end up in a rental all the time. So I know what you are going through.

I have test drove other 06 SS and the dashes in them were also lifting up. BE CAREFUL ABOUT BUYING AN 06 SS

2007 Monto Carlo Airbag/Horn Emblem

I recently purchased a 2007 Monte Carlo and was dissappointed to find the Chevy emblem on the airbag/horn cover was dented. Apparently the entire airbag has to be replaced to correct this visual defect. I researched and found other Chevy's have this same problem. The dealer claims because it is not recalled that it can't be fixed under the warranty. Has anyone else had this problem? Does anyone have any creative ideas on a way to cover that center emblem? I think Chevy could make a simple stick on replacement cover. I hope to hear some feedback.

I own a 06 SS Monte Carlo and have already tamed a few Mustang GT's. The horsepower is great and the fuel economy isn't bad either, I average 20 mpg city and 30 mpg highway, no I' m not joking, if you drive conservatively this kind of gas milage is acheivable.

06 Super Sport

Completely frustrated with my 06 Super Sport. It has 40k on it and at 15k the power steering went out, front bumper had to be repainted and now at 40k my power steering is on the # *% list once again. 4 thousand miles out of warranty and I can not believe from what I have read on here that GM has not issued a recall on these vehicles. I went to their website to research recalls and the corvettes and silverados all have recalls on the steering issues. Has anyone else had a repeat of the steering going out? PLEASE REPLY!!!!!! Common sense tells me that a ma jority of these vehicles have all the same componenets as far as PAINT, POWER STEERING HOSES, PUMPS, STEREOS................. With the history I am really hoping that GM fixes my car at no expense to me because my husband wants a Vette!!!

Curious to know how you like your car, I have had a few problems with mine. Steering issues and paint replacement and the tire monitor system sucks.
