Corvette 8-cyl

  • 4,000 miles
Car purchased in Michigan 01/21/2013. While on vacation from Michigan to Montana to California back to Michigan via route 66 I encountered a rear interior excessive overheating problem. Exterior temperature upper 80's to upper 90's the temperature of the carpet and arm rest storage area would exceed 120 deg. Lift up a suitcase or put arm on console storage area would burn your arm or hand. If you lifted the suitcase and touched the bottom or arm on armrest would burn you hand or arm. Heat inside storage area exceeded est. Of 130 deg and burned spots in cell phone screen and computer in suitcase melted hard drive and ruined computer. The ac on interior heat was approx 75 degs, I have a privacy curtain covering the rear storage area thus making it much cooler than one without it. Anything touching carpet in rear, inside arm rest or putting your arm on the rest would burn it. You could not touch under suitcase or have skin touching the rest would be very uncomfortable. Excessive heat coming from under vehicle into the tunnel where transmission and exhaust are located damaged those items. There is not sufficient insulation under carpet or under vehicle tunnel causes excessive overheating. There needs to have more insulation under carpet or under vehicle in the tunnel. All other surfaces in car were not effected. Under floor mats was barely warm to the touch.
