The contact owns a 2007 Chevrolet Corvette. The contact stated that while the vehicle was parked in his garage with the engine off, the contact turned on the accessory switch which caused the engine to start. Once the engine started, the vehicle began to roll backward with the driver-side door open which caused the contact to be knocked over. The contact was dragged with the vehicle out of his garage as the driver's side door was caught by a part of the house garage door jamb which folded the door. The driver door detached the vehicle as the driver-side window burst and damaged the interior door panel. The contact was able to roll free from the vehicle once it left the garage; the vehicle rolled into his neighbor's landscaping which caused the vehicle to stop. The contact suffered cuts and scrapes to the right side of his back, buttocks, arm, ankle, as well as, his left and right legs. The contact did not seek medical attention. A police report was not filed. The contact drove the vehicle back into the garage and later had it towed to an independent body shop. The contact called a dealer where they informed him that there were no recalls on his vehicle. The contact attempted to reach the manufacturer but was kept on indefinite hold. The vehicle had yet to be repaired. The failure mileage was approximately 7,800.
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.
VALVES BROKE. CAUSING SMOKE AND OIL RELEASED ON THE HIGHWAY. VALVE GUIDES BROKE. THE ENGINE HEADS FAILED CAUSING AN ACCIDENT AND A FIRE TO THE ENGINE. *TR
FOLLOWING A HIGH PERFORMANCE DRIVER EDUCATION EVENT, MY 2007 CORVETTE CAUGHT FIRE WHILE TRAVELING AT LOW SPEED (APPROXIMATELY 10 MPH) ON A 2-LANE COUNTY ROAD, WITH THE FIRE ORIGINATING IN THE AREA SURROUNDING THE PASSENGER REAR (RIGHT REAR) WHEEL WELL. AS SOON AS I WAS AWARE OF THE FIRE, I STOPPED THE CAR, SHUT DOWN THE ENGINE, AND OBSERVED THE FIRE ON THE TOP OF THE TRANSMISSION AND GEARBOX FROM THE REAR OF THE CAR. I OBTAINED A FIRE EXTINGUISHER AND ATTEMPTED TO EXTINGUISH THE FIRE BY DEPLOYING THE CONTENTS BENEATH THE CAR ON THE AREA OF VISIBLE FLAME. I WAS UNABLE TO EXTINGUISH THE FIRE UNDER THE FIRST ATTEMPT AND I BEGAN TO REMOVE THE REAR CARPETING FROM THE VEHICLE IN THE REAR HATCH AND TRUNK AREA AS THE CARPET HAD BEGAN TO SMOLDER. A SECOND FIRE EXTINGUISHER WAS BROUGHT TO THE SCENE AND THE FIRE WAS PUT OUT. THE FIRE HAD CONSUMED A 2" X 6" SECTION OF THE HATCH (TRUNK) FLOOR, WHICH HAD MELTED ONTO THE REAR EXHAUST PIPE. AFTER THE CAR WAS TOWED HOME AND PUT UP ON JACK STANDS, IT APPEARS THAT THE CHARCOAL CANISTER AND SECTIONS OF THE EMISSIONS SYSTEM WERE CONSUMED IN THE FIRE. IT IS INCONCLUSIVE IN MY OBSERVATION IF THESE COMPONENTS WERE CAUSAL TO THE FIRE OR MERELY CONSUMED IN THE FLAMES. MUCH OF THE REAR WIRING SURROUNDING THE DIFFERENTIAL AND TRANSMISSION HAS BEEN DESTROYED BY THE FIRE. THERE ARE ALSO VISIBLE REMNANTS OF LIQUID "DRIPS" ON THE RIGHT REAR EXHAUST PIPE TRAVELLING OVER THE REAR DIFFERENTIAL BUT NO CONCLUSIVE SOURCE OF THE LIQUID WAS FOUND. I WOULD LIKE TO ENSURE THAT THIS FAILURE WAS NOT SYSTEMIC TO THE VEHICLE DESIGN OR MANUFACTURER SO THAT OTHER OWNERS MAY BE PROTECTED FROM SIMILAR FAILURES. *TR
BOTTOM OF REAR HATCH STRUT / DEFOGGER, DRIVERS SIDE, SHORTED OUT CAUSING A FIRE WHICH TOTALLY DESTROYED THE CAR. *TR
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 CHEVROLET CORVETTE. ON 4/29/07 WHILE SITTING AT A STOP LIGHT PREPARING TO DRIVE THE CLUTCH WOULD NOT ENGAGE, CAUSING THE RPMS TO INCREASE AT A HIGHER RATE. THE DRIVER SMELLED SMOKE AND OIL BURNING. THIS INCIDENT OCCURRED TWICE WITHIN THE SAME DAY. THE DEALER STATED THAT THEY COULD NOT DIAGNOSE THE FAILURE. THE CURRENT AND FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 1000. *AK
I was rear ended on Monday 08/02/21 at approximately 2:45pm in Atlanta, GA. The impact of the accident caused my driver's seat back to collapse backwards. Now I have back pain that I did not have previously. The seats should be recalled and repaired immediately.
VALVE BROKE AND LOCKED UP ENGINE. CAR SKIDDED OFF HIGHWAY AND WAS DESTROYED. I WAS DRIVING ON INTERSTATE AND IT WAS RAINING. NO INDICATION OF PROBLEM BEFORE EVENT
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.
I WAS DRIVING MY CORVETTE AT APPROXIMATELY 40 MPH. WHEN COMING OUT OF A CURVE ACCELERATED AND THE CAR PULLED TO THE RIGHT. WHEN APPLIED BRAKES PRESSURE IT HAD NO AFFECT ON STEERING AND STOPPING THE CAR. THE CAR CONTINUED TO GO TO THE RIGHT IN A CIRCLE UNTIL VEHICLE HIT THE GUARD RAIL. IT APPEARED THAT IT WAS IN A LIMP MODE THE CAR HAD A MIND OF ITS OWN THROUGH ACCELERATION THE TRANSMISSION AND BRAKE CONTROLS WHERE IN SYNC WITH EACH OTHER AND TOOK OVER CONTROL OF VEHICLE AND WOULDN'T STOP THE CAR. I AM FORTUNATE THAT DIDN'T OCCUR ON THE HIGHWAY WITH OTHER VEHICLES AROUND ME, WHICH COULD HAVE CREATED A CATASTROPHIC SITUATION. *TR
A mismatched gear indicator where the dashboard shows "Park" but the transmission is actually in "Reverse" is dangerous that creates a severe rollaway risk.When this first happened I pulled into my garage and put the car into park and took my foot off brake and with out me realizing the car was moving backwards I nearly ran over someone. Could've been very serious.I had the vehicle inspected at the dealer and told them this is serious safety issue, they said they could do nothing about it because the car was no longer under warranty. the car has about 14000 miles on it.
The contact owns a 2007 Chevrolet Corvette. The contact stated that while the vehicle was parked at the residence, after exiting the vehicle, the contact became aware of an abnormal fuel odor inside the vehicle. A dealer was contacted. The vehicle was not taken to the dealer or an independent mechanic to be diagnosed. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure and informed the contact that a special coverage had expired. The failure mileage was 11,500.
Fuel smell - possible fuel leak - the issue had been previously addressed with replacement of fuel subassembly in both saddle tanks. I believe that it is happening again ...
There was a strong fuel smell after the last 2 times I drove it. I took it to the shop and they tell me the evap canister was saturated and the fuel pump had small cracks in it likely seeping when the car heats up. I am having the fuel pump replaced, the evap canister and several seals/hoses in hopes it won't leak again.
After filling the tank with fuel, I was immediately aware of a strong smell of gas. I am always extremely careful not to overfill causing any fuel to escape. The heavy smell/escape of fumes is such that the car simply can’t be put in my garage. The risk of igniting and fire is a risk that is unacceptable. General Motors knows about this issue as they did notify me in 2017 that my car could have this condition and that if it did, they would fix it at no charge. I didn’t have the issue at that time so didn’t take the car in. So, now that I the problem, I have taken the car to Bradley Chevrolet in my town, Lake Havasu City, AZ and am told that in order to inspect the car for this issue, I will have to pay for 10 hours of labor ($2200) and only then will they see if they can find a new tank at another dealer. You see, GM no longer makes or has the tanks (according to their parts department). I have contacted their Customer Service Department and have a Case (#[XXX]). I am told that they will not participate going forward unless I spend the $2200 and then if they can’t find a new tank, they will put the car back together and send me home with it! It’s my belief that since this is a documented safety defect resulting in an apparent fire hazard that they would/should take care of it.
