The contact owns a 2015 Chevrolet Corvette. The contact stated that the vehicle experienced severe shuddering and vibration while accelerating from a stationary position and while driving at slower speeds. The cause of the failure has not yet been determined. The manufacturer and local dealer were notified of the failure, but no assistance was offered. The contact was provided with information of a TSB related to the failure. No further information was available. The failure mileage was 13,000.

Torque converter shudder and noise (definitely and issue related transmission). Around 1,500 RPM the vehicle starts to experience the shudder, shaking, and noise. Additionally there is a feeling of a surge in power, like if the vehicle shifts to an upper gear un intentionally, the vehicle launches forward occasionally (lurching forward). There is absolutely no issue while the vehicle idles, not at low or high RPM. The issue only occurs while the vehicle is in motion and at around 1,500 RPM. Using a V4 to V8 delete (Range Technology RA003B AFM/DFM Disabler) helps the issue significantly but it's still an issue. If that disabler is removed the issue is extremely pronounced. I purchased this vehicle as a used vehicle. I wouldn't have purchased the vehicle if I had the slightest idea of such a major issue with the vehicle.

Apr 14, 2025

The transmission flutters when shifting on my 2015 Corvette. A potential catastrophic failure could cause a fire from transmission fluid hitting the hot exhaust. General Motors is aware of the issue and has issued a TSB. I believe a potential fire and or collision exists if transmission fluid spills on the pavement. transmission fluid could cause spinouts of vehicles on road behind a car with failure. My vehicle has been experiencing this for the last couple months. Two different dealerships offer to change the fluid in the transmission but no guarantee the internal components have sustained damage.

WHEN THE VEHICLE IS IN MOTION, AT A CONSTANT HIGHWAY SPEED, 40 TO 70 MPH,ANY ACCELERATION OR DECELERATION, CAUSES THE CAR TO VIBRATE FOR SEVERAL SECONDS. I FEEL THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE BECAUSE, AT TIMES, DURING THE 'SHUDDER' EVENT, THE CAR WILL LUNGE FORWARD.GM HAS DIAGNOSED THE PROBLEM AS 'SHUDDER' AND HAS ISSUED A SERVICE BULLETIN. THE FIX THEY RECOMMEND IS A COMPLETE TRANSMISSION FLUSH AND FILL WITH AN UPGRADED TRANSMISSION FLUID. I AM ASSUMING THE OEM FLUID IS DEFECTIVE. THIS CONDITION IS NOT AN ISOLATED EVENT. IT HAPPENS ALMOST EVER TIME SPEED IS ACCELERATED OR DECELERATED. MY VEHICLE ONLY HAD 5600 MILES.

Jan 23, 2021

SLOW DOWN SHIFT. WHEN YOU HIT THE ACCELERATOR WHILE THE CAR IS DOWN SHIFTING, THERE IS A 2 SECOND DELAY. I CAME OFF EXPRESS WAY AND TURNED ON TO ROAD THEN HIT THE GAS TO MERGE INTO A LANE WHEN THERE WAS A 2 SECOND DELAY. VERY DANGEROUS. HOW DO I FIX PROBLEM? WHY IS CHEVROLET NOT FIXING PROBLEM.

WHEELS

12 complaints

The factory supplied OEM GM wheels on this vehicle are cracking in the rims. This is not due to striking any road hazards whatsoever, there is simply a manufacturing defect within the wheel itself. My vehicle is a 2015, but only has 23000 miles on it. My rear left tire developed an air leak which was the initial hint that something was wrong. The crack was confirmed as the cause by my auto shop. I had this repaired via a weld, but the future structural soundness of the wheel is suspect. The shop has repaired many Corvette wheels like mine and most have come back again for the same problem. I had the other wheels inspected and found out the left front wheel is cracked as well. I am replacing the wheels with mono block forged wheels from an aftermarket supplier at my own expense due to having no confidence in the GM wheels. A wheel coming apart at high speed is an obvious safety hazard to myself and others on the road. GM is shirking any responsibility for this manufacturing defect. There are thousands of threads about this issue all over the Corvette forums. It is shameful that a vehicle that costs over six figures should have this issue. I have never had this sort of problem with any other vehicle I have ever owned throughout the decades, not even entry level vehicles. This really should be a safety recall.

Nov 05, 2024

I currently have a cracked but now welded rim that is off my 2015 Z06 Corvette. This rim is cracked due to a manufacture defect. This is now a known issue and yet to be resolved but this is definitely a safety issue when driving down the road.

Sep 25, 2023

I own a 2015 Corvette Z06 and I had new tires put on last week and the shop found a crack in the rear passenger side wheel. I had to buy a replacement wheel before i could drive it again, since it could have lost air in the tire at any time, which is not safe. This is a common problem with this vechicle.

Aug 20, 2023

A SMALL CRACK DEVELOPED ON THE INSIDE RIM OF ONE OF MY REAR WHEELS AS I WAS DRIVING ON CITY STREETS AND AN INTERSTATE HIGHWAY. I NOTICED THE PROBLEM WHEN "LOW TIRE PRESSURE" CAME UP ON MY SCREEN. . I WAS 500 MILES FROM HOME WHEN I NOTICED THAT THE TIRE WAS LEAKING. I WENT TO A LOCAL TIRE DEALER. HE DISCOVERED THE CRACK AND SAID THAT IT WOULD TAKE ABOUT 5 DAYS TO GET A REPLACEMENT. I NEEDED TO GET HOME SO HE PUT SOME STICKY TIRE GOO ON THE OUTSIDE OF THE CRACK AND INFLATED THE TIRE TO 50 PSI. AFTER ABOUT 400 MILES ON MY TRIP HOME, THE PRESSURE WAS ABOUT 24 PSI. I INFLATED IT BACK TO 45 PSI AND MADE IT HOME SAFELY.

Apr 25, 2021

2015 Z06 CORVETTE CRACKED 3 REAR WHEELS (20" DIAMETER). ONE AT 24,000 MILES, ONE AT 30,000 MILES AND ONE AT 40,000 MILES. CAR IS ONLY DRIVEN TO WORK ON INTERSTATE QUALITY ROADS. NO IN TOWN DRIVING. ALL WHEEL CRACKED ON THE INSIDE. THE CRACKS STARTED AT THE OUTER EDGE, DOWN THE RIM, THEN TOWARD THE CENTER OF THE WHEEL. WHEN THE CRACK PROPAGATED PAST THE OUTER BEAD OF THE TIRE, THE WHEEL STARTED LEAKING AIR. I HAVE TWO OF THE CRACKED WHEELS PRESENTLY. NONE OF THE WHEELS ARE BENT.

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM

When C7 Stingray Corvette in the garage with the door closed, there is a strong smell of fuel coming from the vehicle, this problem started around July, 2025.... I have owed the vehicle for 3 years never a problem until now.

Aug 22, 2025

There is a strong gas smell when my vehicle is parked in the home garage. The smell is very strong on the rear tire area on the driver's side of the vehicle. I contacted Gunn Chevrolet and will drop the car off 8 September 2023. There are no warning lights for this issue on the vehicle. There are several bulletins on gas leaks on C7 corvettes. Here is one bulletin: [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6

Sep 07, 2023

WHEN REFUELING, TANK FILLER PIPE ACCEPTS FUEL ONLY VERY SLOWLY. SEVERAL DIFFERENT GAS STATION PUMPS WERE TRIED, ALL KEPT CLICKING OFF EVERY 3 SECONDS (AS IF TANK WAS FULL). TANK EVENTUALLY TOOK AN ADDITIONAL 7 OR 8 GALLONS, BUT IT TOOK 8 OR 10 MINUTES TO ACCOMPLISH THAT.

Sep 09, 2020

A STRONG FUEL ODOR IS COMING FROM THE FUEL FILLER PIPE. THE FUEL ODOR FILLS THE GARAGE WHEN THE CAR HAS BEEN SITTING IN THERE OVERNIGHT, AND COMPLETELY TURNED OFF. THE AUTHORIZED CHEVROLET DEALER SERVICE DEPARTMENT HAS TRIED TO FIX IT TWICE, BUT HAS NOT BEEN SUCCESSFUL. VEHICLE IS STATIONARY.

Oct 01, 2016

I RAN OUT OF GAS ON THE INTERSTATE DURING RUSH WITH A TRACTOR TRAILER BEHIND ME? HOW I GOT TO THE SHOULDER WAS A MIRACLE!! THEN I NOTICED THE ENGINE WARNING LIGHT CAME ON, THE GAS GAUGE STOPPED WORKING? THE ROAD WARRIOR CAME AND GAVE ME SOME GAS. I TOOK IT MY DEALER RIGHT AWAY. THEY GAVE ME A LOANER. AFTER A FEW DAYS I CALLED FOR AN UPDATE? THE SERVICE DEPTARTMENT TOLD ME IT WAS THE FUEL SENDER UNIT THAT WENT BAD. AND THAT PART IS ON NATIONAL BACK ORDER?? I DON'T KNOW WHAT THAT MEANT? SO I CALL GM'S CUSTOMER RELATIONS AND SPEAK TO A GLORIA. SHE INFORMS ME THE PART IS UNAVAILABLE. AND SHE DOES NOT HAVE AN ETA ON IT?? I TOLD HER I THOUGHT THAT CAR COMPANIES ARE SUPPOSE TO KEEP PARTS FOR NEW MODEL CAR FOR AT LEAST THROUGH THE WARRANTY PERIOD? SHE AGREED!! IMAGINE? SO I ASK THEN WHY IS MY PART? SHE COULDN'T ANSWER? I BOUGHT MY CAR IN MARCH, 2015 AND HAVE 7180 MILES ON HER. AND IS OBVIOUSLY STILL UNDER WARRANTY! I BRING IT BACK TO MY DEALER AND TELL HIM I WANT A NEW CAR BECAUSE BY THIS TIME IT'S BEEN 30 DAYS WAITING FOR PART. I AM DRIVING WITH THE TRIP MONITOR, TO TRY GAUGE GAS USAGE?

ENGINE

6 complaints

Driving down interstate at 74 MPH when engine acted like it wasn't accelerating and I was able to get off on an exit when car died had to have it towed to a chevrolet dealership. Engine wouldn't turn over at all. So Chevrolet did a visual inspection and said a valve spring on #8 cylinder had broke and they needed to tear into it further. So for another $1160.00 they would tear the engine down further to see what damage had been done. Chevrolet never notified me that they had a TSB on valve spring issue. Now my engine is no good. General Motors will give no assistance on repair. My engine shut down at 74 mph no longer running on an interstate.

There has been a lawsuit in reference to the lifters in alot of GM cars. Now my 2015 corvette has the same issue. The bad lifter.

Jul 03, 2023

The contact owns a 2015 Chevrolet Corvette. The contact stated while driving 60 MPH, the vehicle started to overheat. The contact pulled over and turned off the vehicle to allow the vehicle to cool down. The vehicle was able to cool down and then operated normally. The vehicle was taken to the dealer and the contact was informed that the radiator needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was contacted and the contact was informed that the vehicle was not under recall. The contact was referred to the NHTSA for assistance. The failure mileage was 12,000.

Jul 25, 2022

Bad valve springs across many GM vehicles. I am not the only one that has had broken valve springs. I am well under the miles for this issue to occur.

Jun 04, 2021

JUST AS YOU ACCELERATE, AROUND 1200 TO 1500 RPM, WITH A LIGHT TOUCH, YOU HEAR WANT IS BEING DESCRIBED AS A "WARBLE" SOUND. IT HAS A METALLIC RING AND LASTS A FEW SECONDS. LOADING THE ENGINE ON A HILL MAKES THE SOUND MORE INTENSE. IT IS HAPPENING TO A STOCK 2015 STINGRAY COUPE. THOUGHT THIS WAS ONLY HAPPENING TO ME BECAUSE OTHERS DO NO HAVE THIS ISSUE BUT FOUND A GROUP OF CORVETTE OWNERS ON THE CORVETTE FORUM WITH THE SAME ISSUE.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM

Infotainment screen intermittanly flickers or goes black during the backing of the vehicle. Rear backup camera shows object on screen when in reverse, then flickers or goes black. Cannot see blind spot with rear or side mirrors, such as children on sidewalk directly behind the vehicle where not in view of side mirrors and too low to see in the rear view. Seems to be a KNOWN problem with Chevy Corvette's and the problem with screen flickering or black out.

Driver display not working. (cable issue) Known issue with the c7 corvette. Can't see navigation, radio display, backup camera display and car settings. started out intermittant then permanent.

Mar 28, 2023

The entire dash went dark, there was no display of the odometer, symbols for system IE lights, oil pressure, tachometer, and no display on the screen where the radio or navigation selections are made. This began upon car being started. Turning off engine and restarting did not resolve. Car was drivable but not safely as speed could not be monitored.

I have a 2015 z51 corvette and my windshield has a crack in it.I called Chevrolet and they said never heard that before.I have seen at least a hundred different people talking about the same incident.I feel GM should be having a recall for safety reasons.It is not a stone chip it is a crack from the top on the inside. I feel this is very unsafe and GM is just not addressing the he problem.Thank you for your time. [XXX]. INFORMATION Redacted PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6).

THE WINDSHIELD IN THE C7 CORVETTES CRACK FROM THE INSIDE OUT. THIS IS A VERY COMMON OCCURRENCE, AND IT SEEMS THAT GM/CHEVROLET IS COMPLETELY IGNORING IT. SEE MORE INFO HERE: HTTPS://WWW.CORVETTEFORUM.COM/FORUMS/C7-GENERAL-DISCUSSION/3946004-2016-Z06-WINDSHIELD-CRACK-IS-IT-COMMON.HTML A SIMPLE GOOGLE SEARCH ( CORVETTE WINDSHIELD CRACKS FROM INSIDE ) AND YOU WILL FIND HUNDREDS OF PEOPLE THAT HAVE EXPERIENCED THIS PROBLEM. APPARENTLY, THERE IS SOME KIND OF WELDING/MANUFACTURING DEFECT THAT CAUSES RUBBING ON THE INSIDE OF THE WINDSHIELD CAUSING THEM TO CRACK. THIS CAN OBSTRUCT THE VIEW OF THE DRIVER AND IS UNSAFE. MY CAR HAS DONE THE SAME THING. WHEN CONTACTING THE DEALER, WE HAVE BEEN TOLD THIS IS NOT A RECALL OR SERVICE BULLETIN AND SO IT WILL BE OUT-OF-POCKET REPAIR AND NOT COVERED UNDER WARRANTY.

WINDSHIELD MOUNTING STRESS CRACK. WHILE INSIDE MY GARAGE TODAY, I FOUND A LARGE 25 INCH LONG CRACK IN THE UPPER DRIVERS SIDE CORNER OF MY 2015 CORVETTE. UPON INSPECTION THE CRACK IS ON THE INSIDE LAYER OF THE 2 LAYER GLASS. NOTHING FELL ON THE CAR AND I HAVEN'T DRIVEN IT FOR 6 MONTHS. BEING FRIENDS WITH OTHER CORVETTE OWNERS, I SPOKE WITH THEM AND WAS SENT TO THE 'CORVETTEFORUM ' ONLINE. I WAS SURPRISED TO FIND THIS IS AN ONGOING ISSUE WITH THIS MODEL OF CAR. WHILE SOME OWNERS ARE COVERED FOR REPLACEMENT BY GM DEALERSHIPS UNDER WARRANTY. MANY OWNERS ARE NOT COVERED EVEN THO THEY HAVE VERY LOW MILEAGE. MY CAR, 6 YEARS OLD AND 27,000 MILES. THE FORUMS DISCUSSES OWNERS DISMAY AND SAFETY CONCERNS, AND HOW COULD SO MANY CORVETTE C7S HAVE THE SAME ISSUE, AND GM NOT ISSUING A RECALL OR SOMETHING TO HELP ALL THE OWNERS. THESE CRACKING WINDSHIELDS POSE A SAFETY AND LEGAL ISSUE IF DRIVEN. IT IS NOT AN ACT OF GOD THAT CAUSED THE CRACKS, BUT A MISALIGNED GUIDE PIN OR TAB IN DIRECT CONTACT WITH THE GLASS GM DESIGNED INTO THE CAR. I LIKE GM, AND WOULD LIKE THEM TO LIKE ME TOO. THAT MUTUAL RESPECT IS TRULY WHAT THIS WORLD NEEDS NOW.

Feb 21, 2021

WINDSHIELD IS DELAMINATING. DELAMINATION HAS CAUSED A STRESS CRACK TO DEVELOP. THERE IS NO EVIDENCE OF A STONE OR OTHER PROJECTILE IMPACTING THE WINDSHIELD. THESE CONDITIONS HAVE BEEN VERIFIED BY THE CHEVROLET DEALER WHERE THE CAR WAS PURCHASED AFTER INSPECTION BY THE SERVICE LANE MANAGER AND THE SERVICE DIRECTOR. CONDITION NOTICED WHEN WASHING THE CAR.

Sep 08, 2015

FOLLOWING THE OWNER?S MANUAL INSTRUCTION TO BURNISH THE BREAKS, I TOOK MY CAR TO AN AREA WHERE I COULD GO FROM ZERO TO 60 MPH THEN BREAK, 50 TIMES IN 10 MINUTES. ON ABOUT THE 40TH CYCLE, THE ENGINE OVERHEATED AND STARTED TO ?REV LIMIT? AND A WARNING CAME ON THAT SAID TO CHANGE THE ENGINE OIL, WHICH I JUST HAD DONE. THE FINAL TEN CYCLES TOOK A LOT LONGER TO GET TO 60. THE HVAC SYSTEM WAS OFF DURING THE PROCEDURE, THE TEMP OF THE COOLANT GOT CLOSE TO 320F, AND THE OUTSIDE TEMPERATURE SAID 103F. AFTER THE 50TH RUN I DROVE THE CAR AT ABOUT 60 MPH UNTIL THE ENGINE GOT TO A SAFE TEMPERATURE THAN I TURNED ON THE AIR AND GOT THE SAME TOXIC ODOR I EXPERIENCED WHEN I FIRST TOOK DELIVERY. IT MADE ME SICK TO MY STOMACH AND I HAD TO OPEN THE WINDOWS. I HAD GONE THROUGH GREAT LENGTHS TO GET RID OF THAT ODOR AND THOUGHT IT WAS AT AN ACCEPTABLE LEVEL BEFORE THE BURNISHING. I ALWAYS LEFT THE WINDOWS OPEN WHEN PARKED IN MY GARAGE, I PUT THE CAR IN THE DIRECT SUN FOR SEVERAL DAYS WITH DOORS AND BACK OPEN, AND THE TOP OFF, AND EVEN LEFT THE ENGINE RUNNING FOR SIX HOURS ONE DAY WITH THE AIR ON. I HAD ALSO DRIVEN THE CAR WITH THE WINDOWS OPEN FOR TWO HOURS WITH THE HEATER AT MAX TEMP. THE ODOR WAS OF SUCH A CONCERN THAT TWO DOCTORS SUGGESTED I SELL THE CAR. HERE IN CALIFORNIA 115F DEGREES OR MORE IS NOT UNCOMMON, AND OFTEN MUCH HIGHER ON BLACK PAVEMENT. I AM CONCERNED THAT I DON?T KNOW WHEN THE CAR MIGHT OVERHEAT AGAIN AND PRODUCE MORE TOXIC FUMES. I HAVE TAKEN THE CAR TO THE DEALER AND THE FACTORY REPRESENTATIVE IGNORED THE HEATING PROBLEM AND SAID HE COULD NOT SMELL ANYTHING OTHER THAN THE NEW CAR SMELL. THEY DID CHANGE THE OIL FREE OF CHARGE AND GIVE ME A ?2015 CORVETTE TRACK PREPARATION? FLYER THAT SPECIFIED DIFFERENT VISCOSITY OIL AND A DIFFERENT BURNISHING PROCEDURE. UNFORTUNATELY THERE WAS NO DATE OR NUMBER ON THAT FLYER.

The contact owns a 2015 Chevrolet Corvette. The contact stated that he noticed a crack at the top of the front driver’s side windshield. The contact then stated that over time the crack expanded with several other cracks being formed on the passenger’s side of the windshield. The manufacture was notified of the issue and informed the contact that the vehicle was out of warranty. The manufacturer suggested that the vehicle be taken to the dealer to be diagnosed. The vehicle was taken to the dealer where the failure could not be duplicated. Additionally, the contact stated that while driving, he heard a crackling sound on the passenger’s side of the windshield while driving over bumps in the roadway. The manufacturer was notified a second time of the failure and the contact was referred to the NHTSA Hotline. The failure mileage was approximately 24,000.

Previous claim w/NHTSA was filed on wrong vehicle. I am filing this complaint so that it can be associated to the correct vehicle. I was in a passenger side and rear collision resulting in serious injury and permanent impairment which resulted in a total loss of the vehicle and multiple surgeries as well as prolonged and continued impairments and care. I was struck in the passenger side door by a truck crossing 3 lanes into my 4th lane as i sat idol at a stop light, the extreme impact blew holes in the side walls of my tires. i was pushed me into the median in which i ricocheted off of and was hit a second time by the same truck tearing into the hatch and bending the frame of the vehicle declared a total loss. not one of the airbags deployed and the seat belt failed to restrain me. resulting in severe whiplash, TBI, torn rotator cuff and bicep tear, permanent loss of hearing in my right ear and a cranial fracture, back and neck injuries, hip and intestinal blockage(twisted). At the time of the accident NHTSA, dealer and GM ran VIN due to the suspicion of air bags and seatbelt failure there were no known recalls on my vehicle or VIN at the time. the first time i was notified VIN was confirmed on recall due to the vehicle being left in "test" mode was 8/13/2020 which i immediately filed a claim with report of injury related accident with corporate and they opened a claim and 30 days later stated that my claim was outside of the 3 yr statute of limitations. GM and dealer failed to file the recall in a timely manner with known issues as early as 2014 resulting in my vehicle not being repaired prior to the accident. I believe this to be a Repose Statute in Colorado that is 6 years from incident and would like to file a claim against the dealer and GM for failure to properly notify of recall. failure to notify me of the recall is negligence which resulted in permanent injury and impairment as well as continued medical care which could have been prevented.

I HAVE A 2015 CORVETTE STINGRAY WITH 35K MILES. THE VEHICLE HAS BEEN TO THE DEALERSHIP 2 TIMES ALREADY ONCE AT 11K MILES AND SECOND TIME AT 22K MILES WHERE THE CAR SHOULD SHUDDER WHILE CRUISING AT LOW SPEEDS. ALSO IN THE MORNING DURING A COLD START WHEN I WOULD SHIFT THE CAR FROM PARK INTO REVERSE THEN THE CAR WOULD DO A HARD SHIFT. TWICE THE DEALERSHIP CHANGED THE FLUID IN THE TRANSMISSION AND REBUILT THE ENTIRE TRANSMISSION SINCE THE CAR WAS UNDER WARRANTY. BUT MY CAR'S EXTENDED WARRANTY EXPIRED ON 03/01/20, IN 06/01/20 THE ISSUE CAME BACK. NOW GM IS REFUSING TO TAKE RESPONSIBILITY TO FIX THE VEHICLE. WHEN REFUELING, TANK FILLER PIPE ACCEPTS FUEL ONLY VERY SLOWLY. SEVERAL DIFFERENT GAS STATION PUMPS WERE TRIED, ALL KEPT CLICKING OFF EVERY 3 SECONDS (AS IF TANK WAS FULL). TANK WAS EMPTY TO TAKE IN SEVERAL MORE GALLONS OF FUEL.

I REPLACED THE PLUGS AND WIRES I STILL HAVE THIS PROBLEM, I WAS HOPING IT WAS A BAD PLUG OR WIRE, THAT HAPPENS. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER WHEN THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON I PULLED THE FUSE FOR THE EXHAUST VALVES TO KEEP THEM OPEN THEY CHECKED THEN TESTED THE CAR AND TOLD ME IT WAS FINE NO OTHER CODES WERE FOUND. I HAVE 1800 MILES ON THE CAR NOW I TRIED EVERY 93 OCTANE FUEL AVAILABLE IN THIS AREA AND OTHER AREAS, HOPING IT WAS JUST BAD FUEL THAT MANY STATIONS CAN'T HAVE BAD FUEL FOR IT TO BE FUEL RELATED. *TR

Chevy C7 corvettes have an issue with the center screen that project he backup camera. Due to the screen retracts, the cabling wears out and causes the camera to flicker or go blank. It seems the part to repair has been discontinued. This represents a safety hazard for all C7 corvettes since the part is label discontinued and the camera is much needed to back to car up safely without causing injury or property damage.

WHILE DRIVING THE DRIVER SIDE REAR SUSPENSION COLLAPSED TO THE STREET. THIS HAPPENED IN TRAFFIC AT ABOUT 40MPH. WE WERE TRAVELING ON HWY 24 NE IN COLORADO SPRINGS HEADING TO HOME NEAR KANSAS CITY. AS DESCRIBED IN A RE CALL WITH 43 OTHER CORVETTES THE RECALL NOTICE NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 15V031000. BUT OUR 2015 WAS BUILT ON AUG 12 2014 AND IS NOT INCLUDED. WE HAD JUST COMPLETED AN 8 DAY DRIVE THROUGH MANY COLORADO MOUNTAIN ROADS WHICH WITH THIS KIND OF FAILURE WOULD CERTAINLY HAD THE POTENTIAL OF KILLING MY WIFE AND ME. WE ARE EXTREMELY LUCKY THAT THIS HAPPENED AT A LOW SPEED IN A STRAIGHT LINE. SEVERAL DAYS BEFORE THIS HAPPENED WE HAD A SUSPENSION UPGRADE SOFTWARE ONLY ON OUR CORVETTE. WE DID HAVE SOME SYMPTOMS OF EXTRA SWAY WHEN ROUNDING CORNERS, BUT WHEN WE PUT THE DRIVE MODE TO TRACK THIS WENT AWAY. HAD WE KNOWN THAT THE SYMPTOMS WERE NOT RELATED TO THE SOFTWARE UPGRADE WE WOULD HAVE TAKEN THE CORVETTE TO A DEALER WHILE WE WERE ON VACATION.
