2007 Chevrolet Corvette complaints

IT WAS HAPPEN THIS YEAR MULTIPLE TIMES THE TRANSMISSION SHIPTER PROBLEM I COULD NOT GET OFF THE PARK POSITION, I HAVE TO PUSH THE SHIPTER FORWARDS AND PRESS DOWN THE BRAKE PADDLE HARDER SEVERAL TIMES SO IT COULD GET OFF THE PARK AFTER I START THE ENGINE , IT SOMETIME TAKE ABOUT 5 MINUTES STUCK ON PARK AFTER I DID ALL THAT ABOVE

ATTEMPTING TO ENTER AN EXPRESSWAY ENTRANCE RAMP, I ACCELERATED THE VEHICLE TO AVOID A CAR CLOSING RAPIDLY FROM BEHIND. THE CAR WAS HEADING STRAIGHT AND I MADE NO STEERING INPUT TO THE THE REAR END ABRUPTLY MOVED TO THE RIGHT AND I WAS UNABLE TO COUNTERSTEER SUFFICIENTLY TO AVOID HITTING A VEHICLE IN THE LANE TO MY RIGHT. THIS INITIAL COLLISION CAUSED FURTHER LOSS OF CONTROL WITHIN MY VEHICLE AND THE OTHER VEHICLE, AND WE COLLIDED A SECOND TIME.

STRONG FUEL ODOR WHEN TANK IS ABOVE HALF FULL. THE CAR WAS PARKED IN GARAGE NEXT TO GAS WATER HEATER. WOKE TO HOUSE WITH STRONG GASOLINE ODOR. CAN ONLY PUT 6 GALLONS OF GAS IN CAR. CAR IS A FIRE HAZARD

2007 CHEVROLET CORVETTE Z06 WITH LS7 ENGINE - EXCESSIVE ENGINE VALVE GUIDE WEAR - PER THE GM VALVE WIGGLE TEST MY CAR WAS FOUND TO HAVE UP TO 3 TIMES THE ACCEPTABLE ENGINE VALVE TO GUIDE CLEARANCE AT 24,139 MILES. SOME LS7 ENGINES HAVE HAD THIS ISSUE, BREAKING A VALVE DUE TO THE EXCESSIVE CLEARANCE CAUSING THE ENGINE BLOCK TO BREAK OPEN, SPILLING OIL ONTO THE REAR TIRES WHILE IN FORWARD MOTION CAUSING A SERIOUS SAFETY CONCERN. DUE TO THE SAFETY CONCERN THE ENGINE WAS DISASSEMBLED AND REPAIRED. GM HAS KNOWN OF THIS ISSUE AND REPLACED MANY LS7 ENGINES WHICH DID EXPLODE DUE TO THE VALVE GUIDE WEAR ISSUE.

FUEL LEAK COMING FROM TANK AFTER FILLING MORE THAN 3/4. VERY STRONG GAS SMELL IN GARAGE AND OR VEHICLE CABIN. LEAKS WHEN VEHICLE IS SITTING.

GAS LEAKING FROM THE DRIVERS SIDE FUEL TANK WHEN THE TANKS ARE MORE THAN HALF FULL

MAKING A LEFT TURN IN A STOPLIGHT INTER-SECTION THE MOTOR FAILED SHUTTING OFF ALL POWER TO THE VEHICLE...MOTOR FAILED DUE TO EXCESSIVE VALVE GUIDE WEAR...VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION ON A CITY STREET

VERY STRONG FUEL (GASOLINE) SMELL WITHOUT TOPPING OFF OF THE TANK NO DRIPS OR POOLS FORMING UNDER THE CAR. AFRAID TO PARK IN THE GARAGE.

THIS COMPLAINT IS WITH RESPECT TO MY 2007 CHEVROLET CORVETTE. TWICE WITHIN A THREE DAY PERIOD I RECEIVED A WARNING MESSAGE FROM MY CAR SAYING "SERVICE ACTIVE HANDLING SYSTEM". IN THE FIRST CASE I WAS STARTING THE CAR (NOT MOVING) AND IN THE SECOND CASE I WAS PULLING INTO A PARKING SPOT MOVING AT ABOUT 5MPH TURNING HARD TO THE LEFT. IN NEITHER CASE DID I EXPERIENCE ANY HANDLING ISSUE WITH THE VEHICLE BUT AGAIN ONE TIME I WAS NOT MOVING AND THE SECOND ONLY TRAVELING AT 5 MPH SO IF ANYTHING SUCH AS AUTOMATIC BRAKE APPLICATION HAD OCCURRED I MAY NOT HAVE NOTICED IT. I'VE RESEARCHED THE ISSUE AND HAVE FOUND THAT MANY OTHER CORVETTE OWNERS (AND SOME CADILLAC XLR OWNERS) HAVE HAD THE SAME WARNING MESSAGE. IN SOME CASES BRAKES ARE APPLIED AUTOMATICALLY AND UNEXPECTEDLY AT HIGH SPREADS CREATING A REAL SAFETY ISSUE. ONE POSSIBLE REMEDY PER GM IS TSB 06-02-35-002 (RECALL N100118, 10118). BEING SAFETY RELATED I'M NOT SURE WHY THIS SERVICE USUALLY COSTS OWNERS. ALSO THIS TSB STOPS AT THE 2006 MODEL YEAR AND I HAVE A 2007 THAT WAS ORIGINALLY DELIVERED IN OCTOBER OF 2006. I HAVE CALLED MY LOCAL CHEVY DEALER ( [XXX] IN ATLANTA GA). I'M WAITING ON A RETURN CALL. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR

AFTER HAVING ALL THE FLUIDS CHANGED AT MY CHEVROLET DEALER, WHICH INCLUDED A TRANSMISSION FLUSH AND DIFFERENTIAL SERVICE (WHICH HAPPEN TO BE RIGHT BY THE FUEL TANKS) A STRONG FUEL SMELL WAS EVIDENT WHEN PARKED IN GARAGE. TOOK VEHICLE BACK TO DEALER WHO DETERMINED SPIDER CRACKING AT FUEL OUTPUT ELBOW ON TOP OF FUEL PUMP CAUSING FUEL LEAK WHEN FUEL PUMP ON. REPLACED FUEL PUMP AND CROSSOVER FEED LINES. $1720.00

ARRIVED HOME AFTER A SHORT DRIVE, AUTOMATIC SHIFTER BUTTON WOULD NOT DEPRESS SO I WAS LOCKED OUT OF REVERSE AND PARK, ONLY HAVE NEUTRAL AND DRIVE. ALSO WAS UNABLE TO TURN CAR OFF, HAD TO REMOVE NEGATIVE BATTERY CABLE TO KEEP FROM DRAINING BATTERY. WITH BATTERY RECONNECTED THE ACCESSORIES ARE STILL ON AND CAN'T BE TURNED OFF UNLESS NEGATIVE IS REMOVED. ALSO THE CAR WILL NOT START IN NEUTRAL.

DASH AIRBAG SERVICE LIGHT PERIODICALLY ILLUMINATED. THIS CONDITION (TO DATE), HAS NOT RESULTED IN LOGGING ANY DIAGNOSTIC FAULT CODES, I.E.; DTC(S) B0012, B0013, B0016, B0016, B0019, B0020, B0022, B0023, B0026, B0033, B0040, B0042 OR B0044, THIS ILLUMINATED SERVICE LIGHT FAULT IS ONLY RECTIFIED WHEN EITHER; A) I MANUALLY RE-POSITIONING THE DRIVER'S SEAT UNTIL THE LIGHT TURNS OFF, OR B) I PHYSICALLY RE-POSITIONING THE YELLOW (SIDE-AIRBAG) CONNECTOR LOCATED UNDER DRIVER'S SEAT. EITHER METHOD RESULTS IN ONLY A TEMPORARY RESOLVE, BEFORE THE PROBLEM OCCURS AGAIN. I ASSUME THIS ISSUE COULD ALSO BE TRUE FOR THE PASSENGER SEAT TOO. BY SERVICE NOTICE / VIN#, GM ACKNOWLEDGES A POTENTIAL / REAL AIRBAG ISSUE IN MY VEHICLE, DATED MAY 2016. BASED ON THE REFERENCED MAY 2016 GM SERVICE NOTICE, AND FURTHER SUBSTANTIATED VIA PHONE COMMUNICATION, GM REQUIRES THAT A SPECIFIC DIAGNOSTIC FAULT CODE BE PRESENT BEFORE GM WILL COVER ANY SERVICE COASTS TO RESOLVE THIS ISSUE. THIS, WHILE KNOWING THE EXISTENCE OF AN IMPENDING SAFETY ISSUE, DESCRIBED IN THE MAY 2016 SERVICE NOTICE, IS UNIQUELY INDEPENDENT OF ANY REQUIREMENT THERE MUST BE A DIAGNOSTIC FAULT CODE DETECTED. GM NEEDS TO ACCEPT OWNERSHIP OF THIS ACKNOWLEDGED WELL DESCRIBED ISSUE. IN THIS INSTANCES, GM SHIFTS COAST RESPONSIBILITY FOR THIS POTENTIAL/REAL SAFETY ISSUE TO THE CAR OWNER. MY RESEARCH INDICATES THAT THIS ISSUE IS NOT UNIQUE TO THE CHEVROLET C6 CORVETTE, BUT RATHER SYSTEMIC THROUGHOUT GM MODEL TYPES. CURRENT DEALER ESTIMATE CHARGES TO

THERE HAS BEEN HEAVY FUMES SMELL COMING FROM MY 07 CORVETTE WHEN THE TANK IS FUEL IT IS VERY UNSAFE TO PARK IT IN MY GARAGE BECAUSE OF THE STRONG ODOR AND MY WATER HEATER IS LOCATED IN THE GARAGE. I HAVE TO HAVE THE TANK ON LOW IF I WANT TO PARK IT INSIDE. THE SMELL ALSO COMES INSIDE THE VEHICLE WHEN IT'S FULL THIS HAZARD NEED TO BE ADDRESS BEFORE THE MATTER LEAD TO SOMEONE GETTING HURT. WHATEVER THE PROBLEM IS I WOULD THINK GM NEEDS TO GO BACK AND CHECK THE FUEL TANK AND THE COMPONENTS ATTACH TO IT FOR CRACKS THAT NOT SUPPOSED TO HAPPEN.

CAR TRACSION CONTROL KEEPS TURNING OFF AND GIVES ERROR MESSAGE "SERVICE ACTIVE HANDLING"

I HAVE A STRONG SMELL OF GASOLINE IN AND AROUND MU 2007 CORVETTE C6. IT IS CAUSED BY A DEFECTIVE PLASTIC FUEL PUMP WHERE THE FUEL LINE EXITS THE TOP OF THE PUMP ON THE OUTSIDE OF THE FUEL TANK. IT ALWAYS CRACKS AND LEAKS FUEL. THIS HAPPENS TO ALL FACTORY INSTALLED ORIGINAL C6 FUEL PUMPS. THE GM REPLACEMENT PUMP IS MANUFACTURED WITH A DIFFERENT TYPE OF PLASTIC AND IS NOT SUPPOSE TO CRACK. MY 2007 CORVETTE HAS APPROX. 44,000 MILES AND HAS THIS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS AND LIFE THREATEN ISSUE. AND MAY EVEN BURN DOWN MY GARAGE ALSO. WHY HAS THIS PUMP NOT BEEN RECALLED BY GM? ARE YOU WAITING UNTIL ENOUGH LIVES AND PROPERTY IS LOST???

MY 2007 CORVETTE HAS AN ISSUE WITH FUEL LEAKING FROM THE TOP OF THE FUEL TANK, AND DRIPPING AROUND EXHAUST AREA. ANYTIME TANK IS FILLED OVER 1/2 TANK, I CAN SMELL FUEL FUMES VERY BADLY.

CAN NOT SHIFT OUT OF PARK ON MY 2007 CORVETTE AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION. SOLENOID NOT RELEASING PARK LOCK. CAR WAS STATIONARY IN MY GARAGE

MY CORVETTE HAS EXTREMELY STRONG GAS SMELL COMING OUT OF IT, ESPECIALLY WHEN IT'S NOT MOVING. THE SMELL IS EXTREMELY BAD, WHICH MAKES ME WORRY ABOUT POSSIBLE COMBUSTION.

NOTED A SPONTANEOUS FUEL SMELL IN CABIN BEHIND DRIVERS SEAT AFTER RETURNING TO PARKED VEHICLE. AT FIRST ASSUMED THAT THE TANK MAY HAVE BEEN OVERFILLED. THE STRONG FUMES PERSISTED IN THE CABIN AND ALSO WHEN APPROACHING THE VEHICLE UNTIL THE FUEL TANK EMPTIED BELOW THE 1/2 MARK. BROUGHT VEHICLE TO CHEVY DEALER JUST BEFORE WARRANTY EXPIRATION. I WAS TOLD IT WAS LEAK TESTED AND THEY COULD NOT FIND ANY LEAK. I HAVE SINCE TAKEN IT TO X3 INDEPENDENT MECHANICS SPENDING OVER 600.00 AND NONE HAVE BEEN ABLE TO CORRECTLY DIAGNOSE OR CORRECT THE PROBLEM. THE FUMES ONLY OCCUR WHEN THE TANK IS FILLED JUST PAST THE 1/2 FULL MARK. I HAVE BEEN TOLD BY THE MECHANICS THAT THE TANKS WOULD NEED TO BE DROPPED TO FIND THE PROBLEM THIS WOULD BE AT A MINIMUM COST OF 1600.00$. NEEDLESS TO SAY I HAVE BEEN DRIVING MY VEHICLE 1/2 FULL FOR OVER 2YEARS NOW. OF COURSE I FEEL MY VEHICLE MAY STILL BE POTENTIALLY DANGEROUS, NOT ONLY THE EXPOSURE TO THE FUMES BUT ALSO THE RISK OF A FIRE OR EXPLOSION AND I FEEL THAT THE MANUFACTURER IS BEING NEGLIGENT BY NOT ADMITTING THERE IS A PROBLEM WITH THEIR DESIGN FLAW. FROM WHAT I UNDERSTAND IN THE CORVETTE FORUM THE DESIGN HAS BEEN CHANGED IN NEWER MODELS.

ROOF PANEL SEPARATION RECALL. MY VEHICLE IS OUT OF VIN RANGE FOR THIS RECALL AND WAS NOT HONORED. TODAY THE PANEL SEPARATION HAS GOTTEN WORSE AS WIND SOUNDS HAS ENTERED THE CABIN FROM THE ROOF AT 65MPH ON THE HIGHWAY. THE PANEL IS SEPARATING FROM THE FRAME DUE TO BAD GLUE.

I HAVE A 2007 CORVETTE Z06 WITH 43 K MILES ON IT. I DECIDED TO HAVE SOMEONE CHECK MY CAR BECAUSE OF THE ARTICLE I HAD READ ABOUT THE LS7 ENGINES HAVING VALVE GUIDE ISSUES. I WAS SURE THAT THEY WOULD BE OK BECAUSE THE CORVETTE SITES SAY IT IS ONLY A MINOR AMOUNT OF HEADS THAT WERE MACHINED IN CORRECTLY. I WAS HAVING OTHER WORK DONE TO MY CORVETTE SO LOOKED FOR A PLACE THAT DOES MOSTLY CORVETTE SERVICE, I TOLD THE MECHANIC TO CHECK MY VALVE GUIDES WHILE HE WAS DOING THE OTHER WORK I WAS SURE THEY WOULD OF BEEN OK. UPON MY SURPRISE HE SENT ME VIDEOS SHOWING ME THAT THEY WERE NOT OK AND NEEDED TO BE REPAIRED. IT COST ME $1,950.00 TO HAVE MY HEADS CNC AND NEW VALVE GUIDES AND SPRINGS INSTALLED THE OLD ONES WERE VERY BAD I HAVE VIDEOS SHOWING THIS, THE CAR WAS RUNNING WITH LITTLE VALVE NOISE AT THE TIME BUT WERE STILL BAD MECHANIC WOULD NOT EVEN DYNO THE CAR AFTER SEEING HOW BAD THEY WERE.

MY 2007 CORVETTE 2D CONVERTIBLE LOCKS YOU IN THE CAR. YOU COULD GET STUCK IN THE CAR AND SUFFOCATE TO DEATH. THE WINDOWS AND DOORS WILL NOT OPEN, CAR IS NOT RECOGNIZING THE FOB, YOU ARE TOTALLY STUCK. RESORT TO EMERGENCY RELEASE ON FLOOR BESIDE THE SEAT. LOTS OF PEOPLE DON'T KNOW IT'S THERE! LIKE A PASSENGER SITTING IN THE CAR WHILE YOU GO TO DO AN ERRAND. THEY COULD "BURN UP" OVERHEATED AND STUCK! GM KNOWS THAT THEY HAVE A PROBLEM AS THEY SENT ME A LETTER ADVISING ME ABOUT THE EMERGENCY RELEASE! BUT THEY REFUSE TO FIX IT CLAIMING THEY DON'T HAVE A PROBLEM!. ...UPDATED 02/23/16 *BF

THE CAR SMELLS LIKE GASOLINE AFTER I FILL IT UP PAST 1/2 A TANK. ONCE IT GETS BELOW 1/2 WAY, IT NO LONGER SMELLS

MY C6 2007 CHEVROLET CORVETTE HAS A VERY STRONG FUEL SMELL INDICATING IT HAS ONE OR MANY FUEL LEAKS WHICH IS A LARGE DANGER AND AN EMISSIONS VIOLATION. THIS IS A VERY WIDELY-KNOWN ISSUE WITH A LARGE NUMBER OF C6 OWNERS BUT GM WILL NOT INITIATE A RECALL ON THE FAULTY FUEL PUMP OR LEAKING SEALS ON THE GAS TANKS. THIS NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED ASAP BEFORE SOMEONE GETS KILLED.

GAS GAGE STOPPED WORKING DUE TO FOULTY GAS TANK GAGE IN SECOND GAS TANK. THIS CAR HAS TWO GAS TANK WITH TWO GAS TANK GAGE WHICH NUMBER TWO GAS GAGE IT STOPS WORKING AND DOES NOT SHOW

STRONG FUEL SMELL BOTH INSIDE AND OUTSIDE THE CAR WHEN THE GAS TANK IS OVER HALF FULL. IT APPEARS TO COME FROM THE LEFT SIDE AT THE FUEL TANK AREA. THERE IS NO VISIBLE LEAK UNDER THE CAR. THE CAR HAS 17980 MILES PRESENTLY.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 CHEVROLET CORVETTE. WHILE DRIVING 45 MPH, THE VEHICLE MADE AN ABNORMAL NOISE COMING FROM THE ROOF PANEL. IN ADDITION, AFTER A ROUTINE INSPECTION, THE TECHNICIAN DIAGNOSED THAT THE VEHICLE HAD AN OIL LEAK. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE VIN WAS EXCLUDED FROM NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 09V491000 (STRUCTURE). THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 27,000.

FUEL LEAK FROM FUEL PUMP AND CROSS OVER TUBES. ORIGINALLY DETECTED BY A VERY STRONG GAS ODOR IN THE GARAGE. THE ODOR AND FUEL IS LEAKING AND VISIBLE WHEN THE CAR IS STATIONARY. THE FUEL SMELL IS ALSO STRONG WHILE DRIVING.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 CHEVROLET CORVETTE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 15 MPH OVER A BUMP, A LOUD NOISE SNAPPING AND WIND NOISE EMITTED OUTSIDE OF THE VEHICLE DUE TO THE LOOSE FIT OF THE ROOF PANEL. THE VIN WAS NOT INCLUDED IN NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 09V491000 (STRUCTURE). THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 10,000.

AIRBAG LIGHT ON CONSTANTLY. NEVER TURNS OFF. SO AIRBAG IS NOT WORKING. THIS IS A LIFE OR DEATH SITUATION THAT IS GMS RESPONSIBILITY. I HAVE RESEARCHED IT AND IT IS A VERY WIDELY KNOWN PROBLEM THAT THEY REFUSE TO REPAIR. HOW MANY DEATHS IS TOO MANY?

WHENEVER THE FUEL TANK IS FILLED MORE THAN HALF FULL, A VERY STRONG SMELL OF GASOLINE IS PRESENT IN THE CAR. THERE ARE NO VISIBLE LEAKS, BUT THE SMELL IS SO BAD THAT THE CAR CANNOT BE PARKED IN MY GARAGE, OR DRIVEN WITH THE WINDOWS ROLLED UP IN THIS CONDITION. THIS DOES NOT PRODUCE ANY CHECK ENGINE OR SERVICE ENGINE WARNING LIGHTS THE SMELL IS PRESENT WHETHER STATIONARY OR MOVING WITH MORE THAN A HALF TANK OF FUEL.. I BELIEVE THAT THE SOURCE OF THE PROBLEM HAS SOMETHING TO DO WITH EITHER THE LINE RUNNING TO THE FUEL PUMP ON TOP OF THE TANK, OR THE CROSSOVER PIPE BETWEEN THE TWO TANKS.

AIRBAG LIGHT ON DASH TURNS ON AND OFF INTERMITTENTLY WHILE THE CAR IS IN MOTION. SPEED DOES NOT EFFECT THE PROBLEM. PROBLEM REPORTED TO GM DEALER AND THEY REPLACED DRIVERS SEAT BELT TENSIONER AFTER ABOUT 100 MILES OF TRAVEL PROBLEM RETURNED. AM VERY CONCERNED AIR BAGS WILL NOT FUNCTION IN THE EVENT OF AN ACCIDENT
