GM has a service bulletin about issue. it involves all 2016 to current Camaro Convertible models. Back window that is sealed to the top just suddenly pops out. Rolling down window at highway speed while top up just pops out back window. the service bulletin states that and insufficient amount of primer is used during the assembly process. This allows the material to separate from glass. Window just pops out. purchased car new november of 2018 with 50 miles on it. car is garage kept and has less then 17000 miles. i am on my 3rd top. Gm will not cover the serious and potentially dangerous problem. TOP right of passenger side window failed. driving with top up and window open will further seperate glass from top and blow out. car is not safe to drive with top up.

What 2017 Chevrolet Camaro owners say
Most recent owner complaints, unedited.
Vehicle was purchased new. Within the first 3 months windshield has always fogged up. Issue seemed minor at first but is annoying and is a safety hazard. When running the AC, I always have to turn on wipers to clear-and condensation is always right above defrost vent.
The front and back windows get a film on them. We were told it was because of the leather seats. When the car has been sitting when you start the car there is a shift flare from 1st to 2nd speed. It does it one time after it's been sitting for an hour or so.
Windshield fogs up when driving to the point that visibility is so obscured you can't drive. When you turn defog on, the outside glass fogs up and you must use wipers but the fogging reoccurs so quickly that it still obstructs view
Windshield constantly fogs regardless of the AC temperature. This affect visibility on a car that's already famous for having terrible visibility.
In humid conditions the car windshield will fog up (condensation). This is caused by air leaking from the front defroster vent. Covering the vent resolves the issue. Gm issued tsb;#17-na-201: excessive windshield condensation, HVAC defrost door flutter type noise heard - (jun 16, 2017). Had the repair performed in 2017. The issue is not resolved and appears worse now. This appears to be a common issue w/ this generation of camaro. I feel this is a safety concern as it impedes immediate visibility.
The windshield is constantly fogging to the point that it is dangerous to drive. Half of the windshield fogs over because gm states that its designed that way....which is great if driving with my head out the driver side window. I have sent multiple pictures to gm and they say its normal. It's so ridiculous that the owner of the dealership offered to buy the vehicle back because gm is no help. Gm can not be allowed to dismiss this seroius plroblem. If you cant see out of a windshield, how is anyone suppose to drive a vehicle safely??? I can submit multiple pictures of myself attempting to drive while this is happening.
The windshield fogs up with and without activating the defrost. The fog occurs in the middle of the drive and obstruct the driver's view. The fog also occurs when the vehicle is powered on and in park. However, the risk is the view obstruction when this occurs while driving. This has been ongoing for several months and seems to be getting progressively worse.
Front windshield keeps fogging up to the point when driving it becomes a safety hazard. Took in to get it fixed by dealer according to the fix chevy provided and the fix made it worse, I can't drive with air on or windows will fog up and interfere with visibility. It is a very serious safety hazard when driving.
Mainly at night the windshield has lots of condensation on the outside . There is a service bulletin but it doesn't help, actually it made mine worse. You can feel the air coming from the defroster on the inside of the car. We have to ride with the wipers on. I had a case with gm but it was closed because the engineers said that there is nothing to be done. We bought the car in february it has some condensation but has only gotten worse
