I HAVE READ THREADS ON THE CORVETTE FORMS AND FOUND THIS IS A CRACK IN THE FUEL PUMP AND IT LEAKS OUT AND COLLECTS INTO THE PAN THAT SUPPORTS THE GAS TANK. THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS AND CAN START A FIRE ALONG WITH FUMES IN THE GARAGE AND SOMETIME GAS WATER HEATERS ARE LOCATED IN THE GARAGE. I CANNOT BELIEVE THIS IS NOT A RECALL.

  DEAR SIR OR MADAM, I PURCHASED A USED 2011 CORVETTE A YEAR AGO. THERE IS A STRONG ODOR OF GASOLINE NEAR THE DRIVERS SIDE REAR WHEEL WELL WHEN THE TANK IS NEAR FULL. THIS HAS OCCURRED FROM THE FIRST DAY I BOUGHT IT AND CONTINUES TODAY. I HAVE REPLACED THE GAS CAP WITH NO IMPROVEMENT. I BECAME AWARE OF RECALL FOR CRACKING OF THE FUEL PUMP ASSEMBLY WHICH PRODUCES A GASOLINE VAPOR LEAK.. THE RECALL IS FROM JULY 2016, REF# N150682, GWM# 2015682. I FOUND THE RECALL INFORMATION ON A CORVETTE FORUM. THE LETTER SAYS THE RECALL IS GOOD FOR 10 YEARS FROM THE IN-SERVICE DATE WITH UNLIMITED MILEAGE. SO IT SHOULD STILL BE AVAILABLE FOR MY 2011 VEHICLE. I CONTACTED MY LOCAL DEALER AND THEY SAID THERE IS NO RECALL SHOWING ON THE GM SYSTEM FOR MY CAR. THE DEALER IS MARCHANT CHEVROLET, 5700 SAVANNAH HIGHWAY, RAVENEL SC 29470, 843-564-1394. CAN YOU HELP ME GET THE DEALER TO RECOGNIZE THE RECALL?

  I bought this vehicle in XXX with about 39k miles. About a year after purchase, I began smelling gasoline in my garage after I filled the tank. I have consulted Corvette forum ([XXX]) and find this is a common problem. If I fill the tank more than halfway, it seems to occur consistently. I recognize this car has no warranty, but this seems to be both common and a serious safety concern. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

• 06/28/2018· ELECTRICAL SYSTEM

  WHEN THE ENGINE IS WARM, THE UNDERHOOD BUSSED ELECTRICAL CENTER (UBEC) HOUSING WILL EXPAND, CAUSING THE HEADLAMP LOW-BEAM RELAY CONTROL CIRCUIT ROUTED WIRE TO BEND SLIGHTLY. AFTER THE WIRE IS REPEATEDLY BENT, IT HAS FRACTURED AND SEPARATED. WHEN THIS OCCURS, THE LOW-BAEM HEADLAMPS WILL NOT ILLUMINATE. AS THE UBEC HOUSING COOLS AND CONTRACTS, THE LOW-BEAM HEADLAMP FUNCTION MAY RETURN. THIS CONDITION IS NOT AFFECTING THE HIGH-BEAM HEADLAMPS, MARKER LAMPS, TURN SIGNALS, DAYTIME RUNNING LAMPS OR FOG LAMPS. LOSS OF LOW BEAM HEADLAMPS WHEN THEY ARE REQUIRED COULD REDUCE THE DRIVER'S VISIBILITY, INCREASING THE RISK OF A CRASH .....WHICH WOULD BE FATAL. APPEARS THAT OTHER YEAR CORVETTES HAVE HAD THIS ISSUE (SEE DEC 2014 BULLETIN 13146 "RECALL BULLETIN" - LOW-BEAM HEADLAMPS INOPERATIVE." GM ADMITS TO A "CUSTOMER SATISFACTION PROGRAM" WHICH IS NOT A "RECALL." AND THAT THEY ARE NOT REQUIRED TO DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT. SWEET! HOW CONVENIENT FOR GM.

• 06/27/2025· FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM

  I bought a 2011 Grand Sport Corvette and if I fill the tank over half full the gas smell is unbearable. Some one needs to recall these cars. This issue is very serious. Fuel leaks out the top of the tanks, and will then drip down the back side onto the hot exhaust. If ignored this could result in a fire and possible death. If parked overnight in a garage, the vapor will fill the garage and could easily be triggered into an explosion and fire from a gas water heater or other ignition source.
