I finally went to the dealer and they said it was a bad timing belt and that my warranty was now up. They would not help, i called gm and they denied a problem with the engines. But…

    This camaro has been in our family since august 2011, as a daily driver for my wife, purchased from a gm certified used dealer. Leaving the parking lot from a trip to walmart today, not even going 10mph, the vehicle begins to slow down stating "engine power is reduced", with both the check engine light on and the stability trac light on. We were able to limp home under 40mph. Nothing is noticeably wrong, but now the…

Its sad that my 1995…
