2008 Chevrolet Corvette complaints

FUEL LEAKS OUT OF THE FUEL PUMP AND RUNS DOWN THE SIDE OF THE FUEL TANK. THIS CAN LEAK ONTO THE EXHAUST WHILE DRIVING, OR POOL ON TOP OF THE TANK LEAVING A STRONG GASOLINE ODOR IN THE CAR AND GARAGE.

GAS FUMES GATHER IN GARAGE WHEN CAR IS PARKED. I'VE SEEN HUNDREDS OF THE SAME COMPLAINT ON THE C6 CORVETTE MODEL ON WEB SITES ETC. NO GAS IS DRIPPING AS MANY HAVE REPORTED IT GATHERS ON TOP OF TANK AND THEN EVAPORATES WHEN DRIVING. THIS IS A POTENTIALLY DANGEROUS SITUATION THAT GM SHOULD BE CORRECTING.

UPON STOPPING MY VEHICLE, I PLACED IT IN PARK. WHEN I TOOK MY FOOT OFF THE BRAKE, THE CAR WENT FORWARD. WHEN I PLACED THE CAR IN REVERSE AND TOOK MY FOOT OFF THE BRAKE, THE CAR WENT FORWARD AGAIN. I NEARLY PINNED AN INDIVIDUAL BETWEEN MY CAR AND THE ONE PARKED IN FRONT OF ME. THE CAR WAS TOWED TO A CHEVROLET DEALER WHO DIAGNOSED THE PROBLEM AS A BROKEN CABLE BETWEEN THE TRANSMISSION LEVER AND THE TRANSMISSION. THE DEALER INDICATED THIS WAS NOT AN UNCOMMON PROBLEM. MY CONCERN IS THIS MECHANICAL FAILURE COULD RESULT INVERY SERIOUS INJURY.

MY INDEPENDENT MECHANIC NOTED SOME GAS LEAKING FROM THE DRIVERS SIDE FUEL TANK WHILE DOING MAINTENANCE. HE COULD NOT SEE THE SOURCE OF THE LEAK. I WILL TAKE THE CAR TO A DEALERSHIP FOR DIAGNOSIS AND REPAIR. IS THIS COVERED UNDER EMISSIONS? THE GARAGE AND PASSENGER COMPARTMENT NOW HAVE A STRONGER SMELL OF GASOLINE IN THE LAST WEEK. I HAVE NOTED WEBSITE CORVETTE SITES WHICH STATE THIS IS A FREQUENT DEFECT. PLEASE ADVISE IF IT IS A EMISSIONS PROBLEM. IT CERTAINLY HAS RESULTED IN RAW FUEL BEING DUMPED INTO THE ATMOSPHERE, AND IS AN OBVIOUS SAFETY CONCERN.

THERE WAS A RECALL ON MY VEHICLE'S FUEL SYSTEM WHICH CAUSED THE CAR TO SMELL LIKE GAS EVERY SINGLE TIME I FILLED UP THE TANK. LAST YEAR I RECEIVED A LETTER FROM GM STATING TO BRING IT INTO THE DEALERSHIP TO BE REPAIRED. THEY KEPT MY CAR FOR OVER 5 MONTHS. THEY SAID THEY REPAIRED THE PROBLEM BUT IT WAS NOT FIXED. I CALLED THEM TO TELL THEM THE CAR STILL SMELLED LIKE GAS. THIS YEAR I GOT HOLD OF GM AND THEY SENT ME BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP. THEY SAID THEY NEEDED TO REPLACE THE FUEL TANK. THEY SAID THEY WOULD ONLY PAY FOR 60% AND I WOULD BE RESPONSIBLE FOR 40% AND THE PROBLEM I HAVE WITH THAT IS THE FACT THAT IT WAS NEVER REPAIRED AT ALL TO BEGIN WITH. I SHOULD NOT BE RESPONSIBLE FOR THE REPAIR AND CAN'T AFFORD IT.

EVERY TIME A FILL THE GAS TANK TO 3/4 OR MORE I SMELL A STRONG ODOR OF GASOLINE INSIDE THE CAR AND INSIDE THE REAR DRIVERS SIDE WHEEL WELL. THIS COULD POSSIBLY BE A DANGEROUS SITUATION BECAUSE THE ODOR IS NEAR THE EXHAUST PIPE. NOW I ONLY FILL THE TANK TO A MAX OF HALF-FULL TO TRY TO SAVE MYSELF FROM A DEADLY EXPLOSION. CHEVEROLET NEEDS TO HAVE A RECALL ON THIS BECAUSE A FRIEND OF MINES HAS THE SAME PROBLEM. FURTHER INVESTIGATING THIS MATTER, I FOUND OUT THAT THERE ARE 100'0'S OF C6'S ON THE ROAD WITH THIS PROBLEM. I BOUGHT THIS CAR AS USED AND DID NOT NOTICE THE SMELL BECAUSE THE TANK WAS ONLY A 1/4 FULL

CRACKED/LEAKING DRIVERS SIDE FUEL TANK

STRONG GASOLINE VAPORS FILLING THE GARAGE WHEN CAR IS PARKED OVER NIGHT. NOTICED AFTER A FILL UP.

THE COCKPIT OF THE CAR SMELLS LIKE FUEL AFTER FILLING UP THE TANK TO FULL

AFTER FILLING GAS TANK FULL, VERY STRONG ODOR OF GASOLINE. CHECKED BY MECHANIC AND NO VISIBLE GAS LEAK. ODOR CONTINUES WHILE STATIONARY OR MOVING. WHEN THE TANK IS ONLY HALF FULL THE SMELL IS NOT NOTICEABLE. JUST BEGAN IN SEPTEMBER OF 2017 AND VEHICLE HAS 29,000 MILES. DOES SOMEONE HAVE TO BE BLOWN UP OR INVOLVED IN A FIRE BEFORE GM TAKES RESPONSIBILITY FOR THE DEFECT IN THE FUEL SYSTEM? IN RESEARCHING THIS THERE HAVE BEEN NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS AND THIS SHOULD BE RECALLED AND FIXED BY GM.

WHENEVER THE CAR IS MORE THAN 1/2 FULL WITH FUEL, A VERY STRONG FUEL SMELL LEAKS INTO THE CAR. THE SMELL IS POTENT ENOUGH TO MAKE THE ENTIRE GARAGE SMELL LIKE GASOLINE IF PARKED OVERNIGHT WITH THE GAS TANK BEING OVER 1/2 FULL. SIGNIFICANT FUEL LEAK AROUND GAS TANK NOTED AFTER INSPECTION FROM LOCAL MECHANIC.

MY SHIFT LEVER (A6) FREQUENTLY LOCKS ON P. I NEED TO CHANGE THE TRANSMISSION CONTROL SHIFTER (2006-08 CORVETTE AT (25913058) I AM INFORMED ABOUT THE FRENCH AND AMERICAN FORUMS AND IT IS A VERY COMMON FLAW TO THE CORVETTE C6. YET THERE HAVE NEVER BEEN ANY REMINDERS TO CORRECT THIS FLAW. THE INFAMOUS DASH BUZZING (WINDSHIELD COWL) PROBLEM ALSO, I HAVE TREMENDOUS VIBRATIONS IN THE WINDSCREEN AND THIS IS PART OF THE FREQUENT FLAWS ON THE C6 CORVETTES CAN BE UNTIL THE YEAR 2010. MY CORVETTE HAD 77600 KM AT THE TIME OF THE FACTS CAN YOU HELP ME FOR GM FRANCE TO TAKE CARE OF THESE VEHICLE DESIGN FLAWS. THANK YOU THE 1ST PHONE NUMBER IS NOT CORRECT IT IS TO VALIDATE MY REQUEST I USED GOOGLE TRANSLATE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2008 CHEVROLET CORVETTE. WHILE DRIVING 40 MPH, THE CLUTCH PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED AND TRAVELED TO THE FLOORBOARD. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE REMAINED ENGAGED IN GEAR. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO PASO ROBLES CHEVROLET (2485 THEATRE DR, PASO ROBLES, CA 93446, (805) 238-7800) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE CLUTCH MASTER CYLINDER FAILED AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT CONTACTED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 10,500. *TT

WHILE DRIVING, THE CAR'S GAS GAUGE WILL DROP TO ZERO AND THE SERVICE FUEL SYSTEM LIGHT WILL COME ON. AFTER A WHILE, IT WOULD GO BACK TAND NORMAL. TO ADD TO THIS ISSUE, WHEN THE CAR IS PARKED IN THE GARAGE, THERE IS A STRONG GAS SMELL THAT FILLS THE GARAGE. THIS HAS BEEN ON GOING SINCE LAST YEAR.

VERY STRONG FUEL SMELL IN GARAGE, THIS HAPPENS AFTER FILLING TANK. SMELL GOES AWAY AFTER SOME FUEL IS USED UP. I HAVE OWNED THE CAR SINCE AUGUST 2011. THIS PROBLEM STARTED APPROXIMATELY TWO MONTHS AGO. ANOTHER PROBLEM THAT STARTED A WHILE AGO IS THAT SOMETIMES THE TRANSMISSION WON'T COME OUT OF PARK, THE BRAKE PEDAL NEEDS TO BE TAPPED REPEATEDLY WHILE TRYING TO SHIFT OUT OF PARK

I AM WRITING THIS IN REGARDS TO MY 2008 CHEVY CORVETTE. THERE IS AN ISSUE OF GAS FUMES COMING FROM THE CAR WHENEVER THE CAR IS OVER HALF FULL. IT VEY BAD AND STARTS WHEN THE CAR GETS OVER 30K-40K MILES ON THEM. I HAVE BEEN ON FORUMS AND THIS SEEMS TO BE AN ISSUE WITH 2008-2009 CORVETTES HAVING FAULTY PARTS AROUND THE GAS TANK WHICH START TO LEAK. GM ISN'T DOING ANYTHING ABOUT THIS ISSUE AND IF NOT FIXED CAN LEAD TO GAS MIXING WITH HOT EXHAUST AND RESULTING IN A FIRE OR EXPLOSION OF THE CARS FUEL CELL. I HOPE THIS HELPS GET THIS ISSUE RESOLVED BEFORE SOMEONE GETS SERIOUSLY INJURED OR KILLED.

SMELL OF GAS COMING FROM CAR

A STRONG FUEL ODOR IS EMANATING FROM THE CAR FROM THE DRIVER'S SIDE REAR WHEEL WELL AREA WHERE A TANK IS LOCATED. THE ODOR IS PARTICULARLY STRONG WHEN DRIVING FOR A COUPLE OF HOURS IN 100+ DEGREE HEAT IN THE DESERT SOUTHWEST.

I JUST HAD MY MANDATED 08 C6 EMISSIONS RECALL DONE. NOW WHILE IN DRIVE AT A STOP LIGHT, THE STEERING WHEEL VIBRATES, ALONG WITH PARTS OF THE DRIVERS DOOR AND THE CENTER CONSOLE. IT IS THE NEW RESONANCE FROM THE MID CATS AND RPM IDLE CHANGE. PLUS I DROVE IT 60 MILES, THEN TOOK TEMP READINGS WITH A LASER TEMP GUN...MY RIGHT PANT LEG WAS AT 95 DEGREES, AND THE SEAT BELT PLASTIC ATTACHMENT WAS AT 115 DEGREES. I THEN MEASURED THE TEMP INSIDE THE CENTER CONSOLE...140 DEGREES. ALSO ON AVERAGE, THE ENGINE IS RUNNING 10 TO 15 DEGREES HOTTER(DUE TO MORE BACK PRESSURE AND THE LEANING OF THE AIR FUEL MIXTURE) WHEN I PARKED IT IN THE GARAGE AND GOT OUT...YOU COULD FEEL A STRONG WAVE OF HEAT COMING FROM UNDER THE CAR. THE DEALERSHIP THAT I TOOK IT TO AGREES WITH MY CONCLUSIONS. HOWEVER, GM CORPORATE IS NOT HELPING ME TO RESOLVE THESE ISSUES.

COULD NOT SHIFT (AUTO TRANS) OUT OF PARK VEHICLE IS 10 YEAR OLD, 3,974 MILES, NEVER BEEN IN RAIN, KEPT IN CLIMATE CONTROL ENVIRONMENT.

CAR IS SMELLING A STRONG ODOR OF FUEL WHICH HAS BEEN A PROBLEM FOR 2008 CORVETTES

GAS TANK LEAKING

FUEL SMELL EMANATING FROM GAS FILLER AREA. HAS GRADUALLY INCREASED OVER THE PAST FEW MONTHS SO THAT IT IS PROMINENT WHEN ENTERING THE GARAGE WHERE IT IS STORED.

AFTER FILLING THE FUEL TANK AND DRIVING, A STRONG GAS SMELL FILLED THE PASSENGER COMPARTMENT. THIS CONTINUED THE REST OF THE DAY. IT IS NOW PARKED IN THE GARAGE, AND THE GARAGE SMELLS LIKE FUEL. WE PUT ABOUT 75 MILES ON THE CAR ON MOUNTAIN ROADS HERE IN ARIZONA.

SERVICE ACTIVE HANDLING SYSTEM LIGHT COMES ON RANDOMLY, USUALLY AT LOW SPEEDS (35MPH OR LESS) OFTEN OR ALWAYS PRECEDED BY ABS TRIGGERING FOR NO REASON (JUST NORMAL DRIVING OR BRAKING WITHOUT TRACTION LOSS). IT LOOKS LIKE THIS EXACT ISSUE WAS RECALLED ON OLDER (BUT SAME GENERATION, C6 CORVETTE) VEHICLES, BUT NOT A COVERED ISSUE ON NEWER MODELS.

FUEL BEGAN LEAKING WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY. IT WAS JUST RANDOM, AND WAS TAKEN FOR DIAGNOSIS & REPAIR IMMEDIATELY AFTER THE SMELL STARTED. I HAD TO BUY AN ENTIRE NEW FUEL SYSTEM FOR MY 2008 CORVETTE (TOPPING $3600 FROM CHEVROLET). NO REASON WAS PROVIDED FOR THE REASON OF REQUIRING REPLACEMENT.

BRAKE ISSUE: BRAKES WOULD STAY ON UNTIL PRESSED. CRUISE CONTROL WOULD ALSO NOT FUNCTION WHILE THE BRAKE LIGHTS WERE ENGAGED. PRESSING THE BRAKES WOULD CAUSE THE BRAKE LIGHTS TO TURN OFF. TAKING FOOT OFF BRAKES WOULD CAUSE BRAKE LIGHTS TO TURN ON. REPAIRED BY CHEVROLET FOR $450. ELECTRICAL: STARTER HAS BEEN REPLACED 11 TIMES BY FIRESTONE & CHEVROLET. STARTER REPEATEDLY STOPS WORKING AFTER 6 MONTHS OF USE (USING ORIGINAL OEM PARTS INSTALLED AT FULL PRICE BY CHEVROLET).

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2008 CHEVROLET CORVETTE. WHILE DRIVING LOW SPEEDS, THE BRAKES FELT AS IF THEY APPLIED AUTOMATICALLY. THE SERVICE ANTI-LOCK BRAKES, SERVICE ACTIVE HANDLING, AND SERVICE TRACTION CONTROL WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. THE DEALER DIAGNOSED THAT THE REAR PASSENGER HUB ASSEMBLY SENSOR WAS DEFECTIVE AND THE ENTIRE ASSEMBLY NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 90,000.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2008 CHEVROLET CORVETTE. WHILE ATTEMPTING TO STOP AT A RED LIGHT, THE VEHICLE JERKED FORWARD AND THE SERVICE TRACTION CONTROL/ ACTIVE HANDLING SYSTEM INDICATOR ILLUMINATED. WHEN THE CONTACT DEPRESSED THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL, THE VEHICLE FAILED TO ACCELERATE. THE VEHICLE WAS PULLED OVER AND RESTARTED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 50,000.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2008 CHEVROLET CORVETTE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS MAKING AN ABNORMAL NOISE. THE DEALER DIAGNOSED THAT THE CLUTCH AND REAR AXLE NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE CONTACT COULD NOT DETERMINE IF THE FAILURE WAS REPAIRED. ADDITIONALLY, THE DRIVER AND PASSENGER DOORS WOULD NOT OPEN. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 10,000.

THE GAS TANK IS LEAKING THROUGH THE TOP AND MOISTURE CAN BE SEEN ON THE SIDE. THERE IS THE SMELL OF GAS INSIDE THE CAR. THE MECHANIC ALERTED ME TO A RECALL OF THE GAS TANKS FOR THIS MODEL VEHICLE. I HAVE PICTURES TO SHOW HOW THE TOP OF THE GAS TANK IS CONSTANTLY WET. THE FIRST TIME WE NOTICED THE SMELL OF GAS WAS IN A STATIONARY POSITION WHILE IN THE GARAGE. THE PICTURE IS TAKEN FROM UNDERNEATH THE CAR LOOKING UPWARDS.

STRONG FUEL SMELL WHEN FUEL TANK IS AT LEAST HALF FULL. LOCAL CHEVROLET DEALER SUSPECTS A LEAK IN THE TANK FROM VICINITY OF TOP LEFT OF TANK. INVOICE FROM DEALER'S SERVICE DEPARTMENT IS ATTACHED.

STRONG FUEL ODOR COMING FROM CAR WHEN ENCLOSED IN A GARAGE. FOUND FUEL LEAKING FROM TOP OF DRIVERS SIDE FUEL TANK. WORSE WHEN TANK IS FULL.

STRONG FUEL ODOR COMING FROM FUEL TANK AREA.

I HAVE A FUEL SMELL/ODOR COMING FROM MY 2008 CORVETTE COUPE WHEN I FILL THE TANK TO FULL. I TOOK IT TO A LOCAL MECHANIC AND IT COST ME OVER $1400 TO REPAIR. THE MECHANIC INFORMED ME THAT IT WAS A SMALL PLASTIC PART ON TOP OF THE DRIVERS SIDE TANK THAT WAS FAULTY. I WOULD NOTICE THE STRONG SMELL WHEN THE CAR WAS PARKED IN MY GARAGE.

ENGINE BEGAN TO RATTLE AND I STOPPED TO CHECK BUT SAW NO VISUAL PROBLEMS. NEXT DAY HAD IT SHIPPED TO MECHANIC TO CHECK AND FOUND THAT VALVES, GUIDES AND STEMS WERE OUT OF SPEC. STATED THAT THIS WAS A PROBLEM WITH HEADS FROM LS7 ENGINES. PIECE OF JUNK HE CALLED THEM BUT I CHOSE TO DISAGREE THATS WHY IM WRITING THIS COMPLAINT BECAUSE I BELIEVE IN GM. 50 YEARS LOYAL GM OWNER AND MY DAD WAS AND STILL DRIVES GMS (70 YEARS).

GAS IS LEAKING WHEN THE TANK IS OVER 3/4 FULL AND HAS A STRONGER ODOR OF GAS IN MY GARAGE. IT'S ON THE DRIVERS SIDE. AND THERE'S A LITTLE PUDDLE OF GAS ON THE PAN UNDER THE TANK.

GOT OFF WORK AT 6PM WAS DRIVING HOME ON REGULAR ROADS, AND OUT OF NO WHERE MY LOW BEAMS WENT OUT AND WOULDN'T TURN ON AGAIN. CHECK ALL THE FUSES AND RELAYS AND THERE ALL GOOD.

VERY STRONG SMELL OF FUEL IN THE CAR AND THE SURROUNDING AREA OF THE CAR.DRIVING THE CAR MAKES ME SICK.I GET HEADACHES AND NAUSEOUS.

CAR DID NOT RESPOND TO STEERING ON A TURN AT MODERATE SPEED ( 15-20 MPH) ON SLIPPERY ROAD SURFACE. THE TURN WAS TIGHT AND NEARLY A REVERSE IN DIRECTION. I APPROACHED THE TURN IN RAINY CONDITIONS TRAVELING AT 25 MPH ANTICIPATING THE TURN, LIFTED MY FOOT OFF OF THE ACCELERATOR. THE CAR WENT STRAIGHT. I INFORMED STATE FARM INSURANCE, VOLUNTEERING APPROVAL TO EXAMINE THE ON BOARD COMPUTER. I ALSO CONTACTED GM CORPORATION. STATE FARM CLAIM NO. [XXX]. GM CONTACT [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR

BRAKE-AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION INTERLOCK OFTEN FAILS TO ALLOW SHIFTING OUT OF PARK. BRAKE LIGHT FUSE & SWITCH ARE OPERATIONAL. TRANSMISSION SHIFT LEVER SOLENOID DOES NOT CLICK/RELEASE WHEN BRAKE PEDAL IS DEPRESSED. THIS RESULTS IN A CAR THAT CANNOT BE MOVED.

AFTER REFILLING WITH GAS THERE IS A STRONG GASOLINE ODOR IN INTERIOR OF VEHICLE.

SMELL GASOLINE FROM DRIVER'S SIDE .CHANGE GAS CAP DIDN'T HELP

AFTER FILLING UP MY CAR WITH FUEL, I PARKED IT IN THE GARAGE WHEN I GOT HOME. THE NEXT DAY, MY WIFE WOKE ME UP AND TOLD ME THAT THE GARAGE WAS FULL OF FUEL VAPORS. SUSPECTING THAT IT WAS COMING FROM THE CORVETTE, I LOOKED AROUND THE VEHICLE BUT DID NOT SEE ANY GAS LIQUID ON THE GARAGE FLOOR. HOWEVER BECAUSE THE SMELL WAS SO STRONG, I TOOK THE CAR OUT OF THE GARAGE AND PARKED IT IN THE DRIVEWAY. THE NEXT DAY I CHECKED AND THERE WAS STILL STRONG GAS SMELL AROUND THE VEHICLE. AT THAT POINT I DECIDED TO TAKE THE CAR TO THE CHEVROLET DEALERSHIP TO HAVE THEM EVALUATE THE PROBLEM. AFTER LEAVING THE CAR WITH THEM, THEY CONTACTED ME THE NEXT DAY AND TOLD ME THAT THE SMELL OF GAS WAS COMING FROM A CRACK IN THE FUEL TANK. THEY ALSO TOLD ME THAT THE CAR WAS NOT SAFE TO DRIVE BECAUSE THE FUEL TANK IS LOCATED IN THE REAR OF THE VEHICLE ABOVE THE EXHAUST PIPES. I TOLD THE DEALERSHIP TO REPLACE THE FUEL TANK AND ANY OTHER ITEM IN THE REAR OF THE VEHICLE THAT NEEDED REPAIR. THE FUEL TANK WAS REPLACE AT A COST OF $3056.97. I ALSO HAD THEM TO REPLACE THE FUEL PUMP SINCE THEY HAD THE TANK REMOVED AND HAD ACCESS TO THE FUEL PUMP. FORTUNATELY I WAS ABLE TO USE MY 10% MILITARY DISCOUNT OR THE COST WOULD HAVE BEEN HIGHER. AFTER THE CAR WAS REPAIRED, I RESEARCHED THIS ISSUE ON THE INTERNET AND SAW WHERE OTHER 2008 CORVETTE OWNERS HAD THIS VERY SAME PROBLEM WITH THEIR CAR. IT IS EVIDENT THAT THERE IS A DEFECT IN THESE FUEL TANKS AND CHEVROLET SHOULD OFFICIALLY DO A RECALL ON THE 2008 CORVETTES AND ANY

I BOUGHT THIS CAR IN JULY 2016. IT ONLY HAS 21000 MILES ON IT. IT STAYS PARKED INSIDE THE GARAGE AND EVERY TIME I FEEL THE TANK I GET A STRONG GASOLINE SMELL. THIS SMELL IS STRONG AND FEELS THE GARAGE. I CHECKED AND FOUND A RECALL FOR THIS. I NEED TO KNOW WHAT TO DO.

CRACK ON FILLER NECK ON LEFT FUEL TANK WHICH I BELIEVE IS A MFG DEFECT IN THE MOLDING OF THE TANK. GM IS OF THE OPINION THAT THIS IS A WEAR AND TEAR ISSUE. I DISAGREE AS THE RIGHT TANK IS STILL PERFORMING WITHOUT PROBLEMS. VEHICLE HAS ONLY BEEN USED FOR COMMUTING AND NEVER ABUSED IN ITS 91,000+ MILES OF LIFE. I AM OF THE BELIEF THAT GM SHOULD REPLACE TANK UNDER THEIR 10 YEAR 120,000 MILE WARRANTY AS THE TANK IS NOT A MOVING PART. ALSO, WHEN TANK IS MORE THAN HALF FULL, FUEL ODOR FROM LEAK IS EXTREMELY STRONG AND POSSIBLY COMBUSTIBLE. THANK YOU. *TR

GASOLINE SMELL AFTER FILLING FUEL IN TANK. SMELL EXISTS UNTIL TANK GETS TO BELOW HALF. EXISTS WHILE DRIVING OR WHILE PARKED IN GARAGE. *TR

WILL NOT COME OUT OF PARK AFTER BEING STARTED,THIS IS AN INTERMENT PROBLEM.THIS CORVETTE HAS ONLY 75,000 MILES ON IT.

"TAMARA RECALL" MY CORVETTE HAS A STRONG SMELL OF GAS WHEN BEING ON AND PARKED.

CRACKED CROSS-OVER PIPE CONNECTING THE FUEL TANKS. NOTICED A STRONG FUEL ODOR AFTER CAR WAS PARKED IN MY GARAGE, TOOK VEHICLE TO YATES GMC WHERE CAR WAS PURCHASED. TANKS WERE DROPPED AND A GM TECH DIAGNOSED THE PROBLEM AS A CRACKED CROSS-OVER PIPE THAT WOULD HAVE TO BE REPLACED. THIS IS AN EXTREME HAZARD AND I WAS FORTUNATE THAT THE ISSUE DID NOT RESULT IN AN EXPLOSION, I HAVE A GAS WATER HEATER IN MY GARAGE WHICH WAS FILLED (TO THE EXTREME) WITH GAS FUMES WHILE PARKED OVERNIGHT CONTACT YATES GMC AUTO SALES (GOODYEAR AZ) FOR DETAILS OF THE ISSUE AND REPAIR
