Why didn't my ss/tc come with the SS logo over the glovebox? My ss/sc had it, and I see it in pictures of ss/tc's... Did some of you not get one?

I noticed it when I bought it but didn't think anything of it, figured they quit doing it. I kinda liked it but can't find it anywhere, just the big one from ced. I shoulda yanked it off my sc.

 

I dont have it either, I dont think any sedan came with one. You have a coupe, I think coupes came with it. But to be honest, it looks less tacky without one.

 

08s came with it, however the 2009 and 2010 SS/TC's dont have it for some reason?? weird

 

GM would rather charge you the same amount for the car and pocket the $3 they saved by not giving you a badge.

 

Ok yeah, that is what I figured.. I just wanted to make sure the dealer or some customer didn't decide to pocket it.

 

I have a 09 and Mine came with the SS emblem above the glovebox.

 

mine didnt come with it

 

^ he is right but i know some of the dealers got them in and saw they were missing it and ordered them and put them on. thinking that they were mmissing. I know two dealers around here that did that

 

Mine was missing and a old friend's wasnt. This is what warrenty is for and they ordered a new trim peice with it and put it on

 

You can buy the entire trim piece for $35 or somethin or try for warranty but I'm not convinced it wasn't supposed to be there. Some of my friends with 09s have it, some don't.

 

The second half of the 09's and up didn't get the SS badge. Stupid, I know. Oh well.

 

mine was warrentied without question.

My car was built in jan..? isnt that the first half?

 

Early 09' cars were being built as early as September. I took delivery of my 2009 in October 2008. Mine has the badge.

 

i have it on my 09 ss/tc

 

one of my Soldiers has an 08 and his had one. My 09 didn't have one

 

2nd to the last 09 off the line... i dont have one...

 

Yours would of came with one because they were using up the 2008 stock.
They wouldnt throw it away.

 

my 09 came with it.

 

my 09's got it... lol

 

I was curious about this as well. I did not get one. anywhere to buy them?

 

My car was built in april of 09 and didnt have it. There was a break off of middle febuary where the SS/TC had some revisions at the factory .... the fuel pump sound deadening ..... the oil leak fix ..... and standard USB radio . It seems at that point they stopped with the SS emblem on the dash.

Something was revised in feb.09 that changed the way GM looks at the tranny case issue too.... cars after that date don't have the same issue in GM's thinking. I wish i knew all the changes but they were never listed anywhere.


#09-07-29-003: Transmission Fluid Leak, Slipping Clutch or Broken Axle Shaft (Replace Trans Assembly/Front/Rear Mounts and Both Axle Shafts-Contact District Svc Mgr (Warranty Mgr in Canada) for Repair Approval) - (Jun 12, 2009)

Subject: Transmission Fluid Leak Due to Clutch Housing Fatigue, Slipping Clutch or Broken Axle Shaft (Contact District Service Manager/Warranty Manager (in Canada) for Repair Approval)

Models: 2005-2009 Chevrolet Cobalt SS
2008-2009 Chevrolet HHR SS
2004-2007 Saturn ION Redline
Equipped with 5-Speed Manual Transmission (RPO MU3)
Built Prior to February 12, 2009 (Lordstown) or February 26, 2009 (Ramos)

Attention: Be advised that failures of this nature are generally caused by customer abuse. They are NOT defects in materials or workmanship for which General Motors would be responsible for and should not be covered under the terms of the new vehicle warranty. Vehicles with this complaint should be inspected by your service manager and District Service Manager (Warranty Manager in Canada). A field product report should be submitted on each case. Also, if aftermarket kits are added that may effect the driveline loads, the transmission would not be warranted.
Condition

Some customers may comment about a slipping clutch. Upon further investigation, the technician will find transmission oil in the clutch housing.
Cause

This condition may be caused by excessive front wheel hop during wide open throttle (WOT) acceleration events. Excessive wheel hop transmits a torsional shock load into the transmission case. This may cause the transmission case to fracture (as shown in graphic below) and transmission fluid to leak into the clutch housing.

My 2010 was built in October 2009 and it doesn't have one. I just figured they did away with it for 2010 cuz I've seen them on 2008s and 2009s before.

 

when i bought the blue lightning dash kit for my 2007 SS, you couldn't just order the small "SS" emblem from the dash... you had to order the entire piece, which wasn't what I needed, so I popped the "SS" off my factory piece and cut some 3M 2 sided tape to fit.
You want "SS", you gotta buy the whole damn trim piece.

 

anyone got pics of the dash with the emblem?

 

Just do a google image search for 'cobalt ss interior'
