2016 Chevrolet Corvette Complaint Log

AS HAS BEEN CITED BY MANY OWNERS OF THE 7TH GENERATION CORVETTE, I EXPERIENCED 2 BENT WHEELS IN FEBRUARY OF 2018 WHEN CAR WAS NOTICED TO HAVE HARSH VIBRATION WHILE DRIVING. IN OCTOBER 2019 TIRE PRESSURE WOULD NOT HOLD AND WHEEL WAS FOUND TO BE CRACKED. THIS CAR IS DRIVEN OCCASIONALLY AND IS NOT AUTOCROSSED OR DRIVEN ON A TRACK. CAR HAS ONLY 15,600 MILES.

AT 26000 MILES, LEFT REAR TIRE WAS LOSING AIR. NO DAMAGE OR ANY IMPACTS AT ALL. FOUND INNER LIP OF WHEEL HAD A HAIRLINE FRACTURE. VERY CONCERNED ABOUT THE MATERIALS OR PROCESS USED TO MANUFACTURE THE WHEELS.

OVER ABOUT 3000 MILES THIS IM ON MY SECOND CRACKED RIM. DEALER KEEPS TELLING ME I HIT A POTHOLE. DEFINITELY DID NOT HIT ANY THING. I BABY THE CAR. GM NEEDS TO BE RESPONSIBLE FOR THIS AT $1000/RIM NOT TO MENTION THE SAFETY IMPLICATIONS.

2 RIGHT SIDE BENT RIMS PER GM DEALER. UNKNOWN WHAT CAUSE

BENT OR CRACKED WHEEL RIMS DESPITE LOW MILEAGE AND CAREFUL DRIVING. SOME HAVE COMPLAINED TO THE NATIONAL HIGHWAY TRAFFIC SAFETY ADMINISTRATION, OTHERS TO THE BETTER BUSINESS BUREAU.

CORVETTE CRACKED WHEEL: ONE OF MY WHEELS ON MY 2016 CORVETTE Z06 CRACKED FOR NO APPARENT REASON.

INSIDE RIGHT REAR WHEEL CRACKED, CAUSING AIR LEAKAGE FROM TIRE. CAUSE UNKNOWN, NOT AWARE OF ANY ROAD HAZARD OR POT HOLE INCIDENT. NOTICED CRACK AFTER WHEEL DUMP IN WATER BATH TO LOCATE SLOW LEAK. HAVE GM EXTENDED WARRANTY, DEALER WOULD NOT HONOR.

VEH PURCHASED 9/2015 AND SO FAR I HAVE REPLACE FOUR REAR RIMS AND ONE FRONT. ALL HAVE HAIR LINE CRACKS ON THE INSIDE OF RIM CAUSING RADICAL AIR LOSS, VIBRATION AND TIRE WEAR. NAVIGATION SCREEN FLICKERS AND GOES ON AND OFF AT LEAST TWO TIMES A WEEK AND I HAVE TO OPEN AND CLOSE TO RESTART SCREEN. BLOWER MOTOR WENT OUT AT 37K MILES AND THE TRANSMISSION IS BUCKING, VIBRATING, SHUDDERING AND GOING INTO 5TH GEAR AT 31MPH AND FEELS LIKE IT IS HANGING UP IN 5TH GEAR THE CLUNKS DOWN TO FIRST AT 10MPH. WENT TO DEALER, THEY CLAIMED THEY DID A SOFTWARE UP DATE AND THINGS ARE FINE. LEFT THE DEALERSHIP AND CAME BACK 5 MIN LATER WITH SAME ISSUE. TOOK SERVICE MANAGER FOR A RIDE AND HE CONFIRMED THE HORRIBLE RIDE. HAVE TO TAKE BACK ON TUESDAY 5/28 AND IT FEELS LIKE THE DRIVE SHAFT OR REAR END WILL FALL OUT. THEY SAID IT WAS FINE. I HOPE NOTHING HAPPENS TO ME OR THE CAR.

BOTH REAR WHEELS ON MY Z06 CRACKED ON THE INSIDE NO WARPING NO DINGS OR HITS HAPPENED TOOK TO DEALER TO REPLACE TIRES AND WAS SHOWED THAT BOTH WHEELS CRACKED AND NEED TO BE REPLACED TOO DANGEROUS TO USE HAVE PICTURES IN PHONE AND DEALERS REPORT AND I WILL HOLD ON TO THE WHEELS

RIGHT REAR WHEEL CRACKED. LESS THAN 17K MILES. GM SAYS NOT COVERED UNDER B2B WARRANTY. DISCOVERED WHEN TIRE LOSS AIR WHILE DRIVING. DID NOT HIT ANY POT HOLES WHEN EVENT OCCURRED/DISCOVERED. MODEL IS CORVETTE Z06, WHICH IS NOT A CHOICE ABOVE.

I OWN A 2016 CHEVROLET CORVETTE Z06. I NOTICED A WOBBLING SENSATION ON THE HIGHWAY ONLY TO FIND THAT MY REAR WHEELS ARE BENT AND CRACKED! THE CAR HAS LESS THAN 13K MILES ON IT AND IS NOW UNSAFE TO DRIVE UNLESS I SPEND THOUSANDS ON NEW WHEELS.

BENT WHEELS OR RIMS WITH CRACKS THAT HAVE TO BE REPLACED FOR SAFETY.

CORVETTE REAR WHEEL WAS LOSING AIR SO INSPECTED TIRES AND FOUND NO HOLES. WENT TO CORVETTE FORUM TO LEARN THIS IS A KNOWN PROBLEM ON Z06 AND GRAND SPORTS. SEEMS GM HAS A PROBLEM WITH CRACKING. MY CRACK IS EXACTLY WHAT THE FORUM MEMBERS HAVE. HAIRLINE CRACK IN THE RIM ON THE NON-HUB SIDE. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE AS THE RIM COULD COME APART AT SPEED AND CAUSE A SERIOUS ACCIDENT. I HAVE NO OTHER DAMAGE TO THE WHEEL AND HAVE NOT HAD ANY CURB DAMAGE. I BABY THIS CAR AND THE SAME CRACK THAT MANY OTHERS HAVE EXPERIENCED APPEAR.

FACTORY WHEELS CRACKED FROM NORMAL DRIVING ON THE INNER LIP, TIRE MECHANIC ADVISED HE'S SEEN MANY OF THESE ON THE Z06 WHEELS AND IT'S A KNOWN PROBLEM HOWEVER GM WON'T COVER THE DEFECTIVE WHEELS UNDER WARRANTY. THE CRACKED WHEEL CAUSES A SLOW LEAK END EVENTUALLY CAN BREAK IF GONE UNDETECTED RESULTING IN A LOSS OF CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE.

ON OR ABOUT SEPTEMBER 11, 2018 I NOTICED MY RIGHT FRONT TIRE WAS LOW ON AIR. I TOOK IT TO LES SCHWAB TIRE AND THEY REPAIRED A LEAK FROM A SCREW. A COUPLE OF DAYS LATER I NOTICED THE TIRE WAS STILL GOING LOW I TOOK IT BACK AND THEY INFORMED ME THAT IT HAD A CRACKED WHEEL. I PURCHASED A NEW WHEEL FROM CHEVROLET AND HAD LESS SCHWAB INSTALL IT FOR ME . I JUST RECENTLY 2/22/2019 PUT NEW TIRES ON THE CAR AND THE DEALERSHIP NOTED THE BRAND NEW WHEEL I PUT ON THE RIGHT REAR HAS CRACKS IN IT NOW AS WELL AS THE LEFT REAR WHEEL WHICH IS LOSING AIR. THESE WHEELS ARE EXPENSIVE I BELIEVE THEY RETAIL FOR $800 EACH AT THE DEALER AND ARE DEFECTIVE AND DANGEROUS. MOST OF OUR MILES ARE HIGHWAY MILES DRIVING BETWEEN SAN JOSE CALIFORNIA AND ELK GROVE CALIFORNIA BETWEEN MY OFFICES.

RIGHT REAR TIRE BEGAN LOOSING AIR. UPON INSPECTION, FOUND THAT THE INSIDE OF THE WHEEL HAD A CRACK. REPLACED ALL FOUR WHEELS AT MY OWN EXPENSE. THE VEHICLE COULD NOT HOLD AIR FOR MORE THAN A FEW HOURS.

WE HAVE HAD TO REPAIR THEN REPLACE 2 REAR CRACKED RIMS IN THE 1.5 YEARS WE HAVE OWNED THIS VEHICLE. THE FIRST ONE WAS 3 MONTHS AFTER PURCHASING IT AND THE SECOND ONE WAS IN JANUARY 2019. AFTER NOTICING BOTH TIMES THAT FIRST THE LEFT TIRE WAS LOSING AIR A HAIRLINE CRACK WAS NOTICED ON THE INSIDE OF THE RIM. WE HAD IT REPAIRED AND IT DID NOT LAST SO FOR SAFETY REASONS WE NEEDED TO REPLACE IT. THE SAME THING HAPPENED WITH THE RIGHT SIDE IN LATE 2018. IT WAS AGAIN SUGGESTED WE REPAIR IT, THEN AGAIN THE REPAIR DID NOT HOLD AND WE NEEDED TO REPLACE.

I HAD A SLOW LEAK IN A REAR TIRE ON A Z06 WHEEL. THE TIRE SHOP FIXED THE LEAK AND INFORMED ME THE WHEEL WAS BENT. THE CAR WAS BOUGHT NEW AND HAS ONLY 2000 MILES ON THE ODO. I CANNOT RECALL HITTING A LARGE POTHOLE OR RUNNING OVER ANYTHING

HAD LOW TIRE ON 11/22/2018. WENT TO TIRE SHOP. FIXED THE FLAT ON RIGHT REAR WHEEL. THEY INFORMED ME THE WHEEL WAS BENT BUT WOULD HOLD AIR. TOOK TO THE DEALER. GM WOULD NOT REPAIR UNDER WARRANTY. I HAD TO PAY FOR REPAIR. THE CAR NEVER HIT A POTHOLE, CURB, OR ANY ROAD DEBRIS. IT APPARENTLY OCCURRED WHILE CAR WAS IN MOTION ON CITY STREETS.

AUTOMATIC LOCKING FUEL DOOR MADE HEAVY WHIRRING NOISES. FUEL DOOR/CAP IS LOCKED AND NO REFUELING IS POSSIBLE. VEHICLE IS PARKED. NO DRIVING PROBLEM UNTIL FUEL IS EXHAUSTED THEN A USELESS VEHICLE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2016 CHEVROLET CORVETTE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THERE WAS A FAILURE CONCERNING THE REAR OEM FACTORY RIMS. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE METAL WAS NOT STRUCTURALLY SOUND AND THERE WERE CRACKS IN THE REAR PASSENGER SIDE WHEEL. THE FAILURE LED TO LOW TIRE PRESSURE. THE DEALER (GEORGE MATICK CHEVROLET, 14001 TELEGRAPH RD, REDFORD CHARTER TWP, MI 48239, (313) 531-7100) REPLACED THE OEM FACTORY RIM. THE DEALER ALSO MENTIONED THAT THEY RECEIVED SEVERAL COMPLAINTS FOR THE SAME MODEL, BUT VARIOUS YEARS, CONCERNING THE OEM REAR RIMS CRACKING AND THE LOW TIRE PRESSURE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS NOT AVAILABLE. *TT *TR

CRACKED WHEEL AFTER DRIVING OVER SMALL POTHOLE ON THE INTERSTATE CAUSING CRACK IN RIM AND SLOW LOSS OF TIRE AIR PRESSURE. CRACK IN REAR WHEEL INBOARD FLANGE, WHEEL WAS NOT BENT OR WARPED.

FRONT LEFT AND REAR LEFT WHEELS CAUSING VIBRATION IN VEHICLE AT SPEEDS OVER 40 MPH. VEHICLE HAD LESS THAN 3000 MILES ON ODOMETER AND WHEELS WERE NOT DAMAGED BY STRIKING ANYTHING. VIBRATION BECOMES MORE PRONOUNCED AS SPEED INCREASES. DEALER CONFIRMED BOTH WHEELS OUT OF MANUFACTURERS SPEC.

FOUR REAR WHEELS HAVE CRACKED LEAKING AIR AND HAVE NO EXTERNAL DAMAGE FROM ROAD HAZARDS. TWO WERE REPLACED UNDER THE NEW CAR WARRANTY AND TWO WERE REPLACED UNDER GM'S PURCHASED EXTENDED WARRANTY. THE FIRST ONE, RIGHT REAR, CRACKED ON 11/19/16 WITH 18,843 MILES ON THE CAR. THE SECOND ONE,LEFT REAR, CRACKED ON 8/23/17 WITH 24,332 MILES ON THE CAR. THE THIRD ONE,LEFT REAR, CRACKED ON 8/14/18 WITH 34,854 MILES ON THE CAR. THE FOURTH ONE, RIGHT REAR, CRACKED ON 10/17/18 WITH 39,501 MILES ON THE CAR. CALLING THE GM HOT LINE I WAS TOLD TO CONTACT MY GM SERVICE DEPARTMENT IN REGARDS TO THIS ISSUE. THEY TOLD ME THE THE WHEEL WAS DESIGNED TO CRACK TO PROTECT THE REAR SUSPENSION !!! THIS IS A HUGE SAFETY ISSUE. WHAT WOULD HAPPEN IF THAT CRACK LEAD TO A WHEEL FAILURE AT SPEED? I HAVE ALL MY GM SERVICE STATEMENTS TO BACK THESE FACTS UP. GM NEEDS TO CORRECT THE PROBLEM!

KNOWN ISSUES WITH A SUB STANDARD TORGUE COVERTER CAUSING A SHUDDER AND JERKY MOTION THE CAR STARTS DEMONSTRATING ACCOMPANIED BY FLUCTUATING ENGINE RPMS. THIS CORVETTE IS EQUIPPED WITH A 8I90 8 SPEED AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION. ITS ESPECIALLY NOTICEABLE WHEN CRUISING AT HIGHWAY SPEED WITH THE CRUISE CONTROL ENGAGED, HOWEVER IT DISPLAYS THIS PROBLEM WHETHER THE CRUISE CONTROL IS ENGAGED OR NOT. THIS ISSUE SEEMS TO HAVE AFFECTED ABOUT 20,000 CORVETTES UNTIL ABOUT THE END OF OCTOBER 2016 PRODUCTION DATES. INTERNET RESEARCH SHOWS THA THIS IS A WIDE SPREAD PROBLEM AND THERE SHOULD BE A RECALL ON THESE VEHICLES THAT REQUIRES GM TO REPLACES THE TRANSMISSION AND TORQUE CONVERTER

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2016 CHEVROLET CORVETTE. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 45 MPH, THE STEERING WHEEL LOST POWER AND THE "POWER STEERING NEEDS SERVICE" MESSAGE ILLUMINATED. THE CONTACT CALLED AND SCHEDULED AN APPOINTMENT FOR DIAGNOSTIC TESTING WITH GRABIAK CHEVROLET (8282 US-22, NEW ALEXANDRIA, PA 15670, 724-668-2231). THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE AND PROVIDED A CASE NUMBER. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 900. *TT

BOTH REAR WHEELS DEVELOPED CRACKS APPROXIMATELY TWO INCHES LONG FROM THE INSIDE EDGE TOWARD THE MIDDLE OF THE WHEEL. THE CRACKS IN BOTH WHEELS WERE SIMILAR IN SIZE AND LOCATION. MILEAGE WHEN NOTICED WAS 24,000. NUMEROUS REPORTS OF THE SAME ISSUE ARE BEING REPORTED ON CORVETTE RELATED WEB SITES.

RECEIVED A LETTER WITH THE FOLLOWING FROM GM. "THIS LETTER IS INTENDED TO MAKE YOU AWARE THAT SOME 2016 MODEL YEAR CHEVROLET CORVETTE VEHICLES MAY HAVE A CONDITION WHERE CRACKS ON THE TOP SURFACE OF THE LEFT FUEL TANK PUMP MODULE FLANGE, MAY CAUSE FUEL ODOR, OR A LOSS OF FUEL ON THE GROUND. A CHECK ENGINE LIGHT MAY ILLUMINATE IF THE FUEL TANK IS LESS THAN HALF FULL." GM RECALL 17469 . TO ME DUE TO POSSIBLE SAFETY ISSUES THIS SHOULD BE A MANDATORY RECALL. PLEASE ASSIST.

Fuel smells after filling up seems like there is a leak, received a letters from manufacturer but miss placed it, when we found it it was over the mileage limit. Now they will not fix the safety issue.

I WANT TO KNOW WHY THIS GAS LEAKING AT THE FUEL PUMP IS NOT A MANDATORY RECALL?HTTPS://WWW.CORVETTEACTIONCENTER.COM/TECH/KNOWLEDGEBASE/FILE.PHP?ID=143

I PURCHASED AN OPTIONAL CHROME WHEEL UPGRADE WHICH WAS DELIVERED WITH NEW VEHICLE. RIGHT REAR WHEEL CRACKED AND LOST AIR PRESSURE AFTER 4,000 MILES, LEFT REAR WHEEL CRACKED AND LOST AIR PRESSURE AFTER 6,800 MILES.

CRACKED REAR WHEEL. I PURCHASED THE CAR USED AND THIS WAS DISCOVERED DURING AN INSPECTION.

GAS LEAK WHEN THE TANK IS FILLED.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2016 CHEVROLET CORVETTE. WHILE DRIVING 50 MPH, THE CLUTCH FAILED WITHOUT WARNING AND TRAVELED TO THE FLOORBOARD. THE PEDAL FAILED TO RISE BACK IN POSITION. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO NORFOLK GM AUTO CENTER (1123 S 20TH ST, NORFOLK, NE 68701) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE MASTER CYLINDER NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE ISSUE AND OPENED CASE NUMBER: 8-3631978340. NO FURTHER ASSISTANCE WAS PROVIDED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 9,000.

CAR OVERHEATING WHEN USED IN HIGH PERFORMANCE DRIVING, ALARM SOUNDS AND GOES INTO LIMP MODE. HAPPENS WITHIN 10 MILES OF 30 RAPID ACCELERATIONS.

BAD SMELL OF GAS IN GARARGE WHEN CAR IS PARKED IN THERE.

WHILE ATTEMPTING TO ACCELERATE OR DECELERATE MY CAR I FEEL A HESITATION, FOLLOWED BY A SIGNIFICANT SHUDDER WHEN THE VEHICLE'S AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION CHANGES GEARS. THE SHUDDER, SHAKE AND HESITATION ALSO OCCURS WHILE MY VEHICLE ACCELERATES IN A SINGLE GEAR, AND NOT ACTIVELY SHIFTING GEARS. THE PROBLEM DOES NOT MERELY RESULT IN AN UNCOMFORTABLE DRIVING CONDITION. THE SHUDDERING AND HESITATION SEEM TO BE RELATED TO INTERNAL ISSUES WITHIN THE TRANSMISSION AND/OR TORQUE CONVERTER CAUSING FRICTION SURFACES, HYDRAULIC SYSTEMS, AND GEARS TO NOT FUNCTION PROPERLY. THERE IS POSSIBLY PERMANENT DAMAGE THAT WILL OCCUR TO THE TRANSMISSION AND/OR TORQUE CONVERTER OVER TIME. I FACE ESCALATING REPAIRS THAT CAN INCLUDE FLUSHING THE TRANSMISSION OF METAL SHAVINGS CAUSED BY THE DEFECTIVE TRANSMISSION OPERATION, AND WHICH EVENTUALLY NECESSITATE THE REPLACEMENT OF COMPONENTS SUCH AS THE TORQUE CONVERTER, VALVE BODY, OR THE ENTIRE TRANSMISSION. AS SUCH, THE TRANSMISSION DEFECT ENDANGERS THE DRIVERS AND PASSENGERS OF THE VEHICLES, AND DIMINISHES THE VALUE OF THE VEHICLES. GM'S DELIBERATE NON-DISCLOSURE OF THESE DEFECTS ARTIFICIALLY INFLATED THE PURCHASE AND LEASE PRICE FOR THESE VEHICLES. GM HAS KNOWN ABOUT THE TRANSMISSION DEFECT FOR YEARS, SINCE RIGHT AFTER INTRODUCTION OF THE TRANSMISSION. SINCE 2015, GM HAS ISSUED THIRTEEN VERSIONS OF A 'TECHNICAL SERVICE BULLETIN,' OR 'TSB,' RELATED TO THIS SHIFTING ISSUE ALONE. THE TSBS RELATED TO THE TRANSMISSION ISSUE HAVE ADVISED DEALERSHIPS TO, AMONG OTHER THINGS: COMPLETE THE 'CLUTCH DRIVE LEARN PROCEDURE,' REPLACE THE VALVE BODY, REPLACE THE ENTIRE TRANSMISSION, FLUSH THE COOLER LINES AND COOLER, REMOVE DEBRIS FROM AND CLEAN THE TRANSMISSION PAN, REPLACE THE TRANSMISSION FILTER, REPLACE THE TRANSMISSION FLUID, AND FLUSH THE TRANSMISSION. TO DATE, NONE OF GM RECOMMENDED SOLUTIONS HAS RESOLVED THE PROBLEM.

2ND GAS LEAK TO 2016 Z51 CORVETTE WITH 1800 MILES. DEALER REPLACE GAS TANK BECAUSE OF A GAS LEAK. THE ODOMETER REGISTERED ABOUT 1300 MILES. ABOUT 500 MILES LATER (1,800 MILES ON THE ODOMETER) THE CAR ONCE AGAIN EXPERIENCED A GAS LEAK AT THE TANK. THIS IS A DANGEROUS SITUATION SINCE THE GAS COULD LEAK UPON THE HOT TAILPIPE OR MUFFLER. REPLACING THE GAS TANK IS A MAJOR ENDEAVOR REQUIRING THE COMPLETE DISASSEMBLE OF THE REAR DRIVETRAIN.

SINCE 2014 C7 MODELS OF CORVETTE HAVE TORQUE TUBE FAILURES. ITS A COUPLING AT THE END OF THE DRIVESHAFT ATTACHING TO THE DIFFERENTIAL. CHEVY TRIED A FIX IN MODEL 2015 THAT FAILED. IT CONTINUES TO FAIL AND THERE ARE NO PARTS AVAILABLE TO DO THE REPAIR. MY 2016 JUST FAILED BUT THERE ARE CARS THAT FAIL MULTIPLE TIMES SINCE THE PART HAVE NOT BEEN REDESIGNED. PART FAILURE RESULTS IN DAMAGE TO THE DIFFERENTIAL, DRIVE SHAFT AND TRANSMISSION. REPAIR EXCEEDS $6000 AND CHEVY WILL NOT REPAIR IF OUT OF WARRANTY. PLEASE SEE GOOGLE AND OTHER CORVETTE FORUM COMPLAINTS. THIS IS ONGOING WITH NO RESOLUTION

MY 2016 CORVETTE STARTED HAVING HIGH FREQUENCY VIBRATIONS IN STEERING WHEEL AND INTERIOR PANELS WITH UNDER 7900 MILES OF SERVICE. I COMPLAINED TO THE DEALERSHIP SERVICE DEPARTMENT ABOUT THE PROBLEM AND FOUND FRONT WHEELS TO BE BENT AND COULD NOT BALANCE THE WHEELS PROPERLY. THE DEALERSHIP ADVISED ME TO TAKE MY CORVETTE TO ANOTHER DEALERSHIP THAT HAD BETTER EQUIPMENT THAN THEM. THE SECOND DEALERSHIP INSPECTED MY CORVETTE AND INFORMED ME THAT ALL FOUR WHEELS ARE BENT AND CANNOT BALANCE THEM PROPERLY. NEITHER DEALERSHIP WILL REPLACE THE WHEELS UNDER WARRANTY. THUS FAR, GM AS WELL, WILL NOT REPLACE WHEELS UNDER WARRANTY. I ATTEST THAT I HAVE NOT DRIVEN MY CORVETTE ABNORMALLY NOR HAVE HIT OBSTRUCTIONS OR POT HOLES. I HAVE NEVER DRIVEN MY CORVETTE ON ROUGH, GRAVEL OR DIRT ROADS. I DO BELIEVE THIS IS A VERY SERIOUS SAFETY PROBLEM THAT CHEVROLET AND GM SHOULD ADDRESS BEFORE SOMEONE HAS A TERRIBLE ACCIDENT BECAUSE OF THESE WHEELS!

MULTIPLE STRESS CRACKS IN BOTH REAR WHEELS, NO DAMAGE OR INSULTS TO WHEEL! GENERAL MOTORS OR NASSANI BROTHERS CHEVROLET DEALERSHIP CULVER CITY, CA, WOULD ACKNOWLEDG THE PROBLEM. THIS WAS REPORTED TO THE DEALERSHIP AND GENERAL MOTORS NUMEROUS TIMES, WITH GM TELLING TO TAKE IT TO DEALERSHIP AND THE DEALERSHIP TELLING ME TO CONTACT GENERAL MOTORS, I CONTINUE TO HAVE PROBLEMS RESULTING IN BUYING 1 TIRE AND NEW WHEELS OUT OF POCKET.

THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE REAR PASSENGER'S SIDE RIM WAS CRACKED IN TWO PLACES. ADDITIONALLY, THE REAR DRIVER'S SIDE RIM WAS BENT SINCE HE PURCHASED THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE LOCAL DEALER AUTONATION CHEVROLET PEMBROKE PINES (8600 PINES BLVD, PEMBROKE PINES, FL 33024, (954) 644-5038) WHERE THE REAR PASSENGER'S SIDE RIM WAS REPLACED.

THE DRIVER'S AIR BAG DEPLOYED. A POLICE REPORT WAS FILED. THE CONTACT WAS KNOCKED UNCONSCIOUS BY THE AIR BAG. THE CONTACT SUSTAINED DAMAGE TO THE LEFT EYE, WHICH REQUIRED MEDICAL ATTENTION. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED AND DESTROYED. A DEALER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE CRASH. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE ISSUE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 6,000. THE VIN WAS NOT AVAILABLE. *TT UPDATED 8/21/18*JB

GAS SMELL AFTER FILLING TANK

SERVICE AIRBAG WARNING LIGHT STAYS ON.

I BOUGHT THE CAR ON 9/8/16. I SMELLED GAS AS IT SAT IDLING AT DEALERSHIP ( RICK HENDRICKS OF BUFORD GA. ) AND THOUGHT IT WAS JUST FUMES. I GOT HOME AND PARKED IT, 1/2 TANK. I DID NOT SMELL GAS THEN. I LEFT FOR WEEK LONG TRIP AND RETURNED ON 9/15/16. I FILLED THE CAR TO DRIVE AND WENT TO A MEETING THAT NIGHT. A FRIEND WAS CHECKING HIS CAR AFTER I PARKED NEXT TO HIM SAYING HE SMELLED GAS. I TOLD HIM I HAD AFTER I FILLED MINE. I HAS A PUDDLE UNDER ME CAR AS LARGE AS A SEMI TRUCK TIRE. THE NEXT DAY I TOOK IT TO GLENN SMITH CHEV IN OPELIKA AL. THEY STILL HAVE CAR AND HAVE ORDERED THE LEFT SIDE TANK TO REPLACE. CAR HAS AROUND 335 MILES ON IT. I AM WAITING TO GET MY CAR BACK.

THE REAR TAIL LIGHT BEZELS ON MY 2016 CHEVROLET CORVETTE STINGRAY ARE NOT BOLTED DOWN, THEY SNAP IN/OUT. THIS IS A PROBLEM BECAUSE SOMEONE STOLE MINE AND I'M SURE THEY WERE ALSO WANTING TO GET THE TAIL LIGHTS. ANYWAY, THE REAR TAIL LIGHT BEZELS ARE NOT BOLTED DOWN, THEY SNAP IN/OUT. SOMEONE CAN EASILY STEAL MY TAIL LIGHTS AFTER THE BEZELS ARE REMOVED MAKING MY CAR UNSAFE FOR TRAVEL. I HAVE A POLICE REPORT OF THE INCIDENT. THE VEHICLE WAS PARKED AT MY HOME UNDER A CAR PORT. THERE ARE LOTS OF ONLINE VIDEOS ON YOUTUBE THAT TEACH ANYONE HOW TO REMOVE THESE BEZELS WITH JUST A SMALL TOOL TO GRAB ONTO THE BEZEL.

FUEL LEAK IN THE AREA OF THE FUEL TANKS

SECOND 2016 CORVETTE, FIRST ONE GM TOOK BACK. NOW SECOND CORVETTE WITH SAME ISSUE. GAS LEAKING FROM UNDER CAR!
