warning light came on checked code p0442 came up stating a small vapor leak in fuel system. replaced fuel cap, smoke test and found that the evap vent solenoid was leaking. Remove and replace fuel tank vent valve program module. Still smelled fuel. Took vette to a dealership had them do a multipoint inspection they pinpointed and diagnose the problem as the left side fuel tank module and all necessary gaskets and seals needed to be replace at a out of this world price. I believe this to be a safety risk.

Strong fuel smell from defective part on fuel assembly. I was told this is a $4000 fix for a part that was knowingly bad and GM did nothing about it. This is a fire hazard and could burn my house down the gas smell in my garage is overwhelming

- Newburgh, IN, USA

The vehicle in question was 14 years old with 20,950 original miles on it. This safety issue was the direct result of a faulty part from the factory [leaking fuel pump flange assembly] that manifested itself in a very strong fuel smell, both in the vehicle while driving, as well as in my garage. It was caused by raw gasoline leaking out of the primary fuel pump that was cracked and leaked out of the fitting on the top of the fuel tank. [NOTE: GM had previously acknowledged the problem in a service advisory bulletin on Jan 17, 2017 #N150682 but was not subject to a recall]. I believe this problem should have resulted in a recall, not just a Service Advisory Bulletin. This vehicle could have very easily caught fire, while driving down the highway or idling in traffic; not to mention the fact that a buildup of gasoline fumes in the confined space of a garage could have caused an explosion and / or fire. Either or both situations could have resulted in loss of life to the driver, passengers or other innocent bystanders as well as the destruction of property. There were no warning messages on the Driver Information System of the car.

Leaking fuel around defective fuel pump. Serious fire/fume hazard.

Special Coverage Adjustment 15682 Primary Tank Module Flange Fuel and Vapor Leaks The above Special Coverage Adjustment was issued by General Motors regarding fuel leakage problem in certain Corvette and Cadillac vehicles. General Motors established a date certain for the vapor and/or fuel leakage involving a failing plastic located on the left side top of the fuel cell. Unfortunately, the condition of the platic part failing is not predicable and might not be detected within the date range GM set. My 2009 Corvette is now experiencing the issue--vapor detection which means there is a small but maybe unnoticed amount of fuel actually leaking at the top of the fuel cell. Fuel leaking in area immediately above the exhaust might well result in a fire while being driven and garaged. GM should have made repairs regardless of the Company date range. GM should make repairs regardless of when the vehicle might demonstrate a hazard situation do to a part failure.

Leaking fuel from faulty gas tank/fuel pump

- Bowie, MD, USA

Gas is leaking/spraying from a defective high pressure fitting on top of left side fuel tank fuel pump. My garage was full of gas fumes and a strong odor was seeping into my home. Car had to be removed from garage for fear of explosion. This is a known and very common problem with C6 Corvette fuel pumps. GM will only fix if less than 10 years old and less than 120,000 miles. Dealer first said my car would be covered and not to worry, but after disassembling and confirming this common issue, they then tell me I'm not covered and must pay out of pocket. My car is in pieces and they are waiting for a back ordered pump. My car has 45000 miles but is more than 10 years old so I must now pay $2,700. to correct a potentially deadly and well documented fuel system defect. Why is there no recall for this extremely hazardous defect?

A strong fuel odor persists around the driver's side fuel tank/fuel filler neck. This odor is stronger when the tank exceeds 5/8ths full. A Special Coverage Adjustment was issued by Chevrolet, ref #N150682, GWM #2015682 in January 2017 which extended the factory warranty to 10 years or 120,000 miles. I purchased this vehicle in July 2020 which exceeds that extended warranty. The fuel odor is a major problem as the vehicle is parked inside a closed garage and the vapors are strong enough to enter the house. Also the fuel odor is present inside the cabin as the vehicle is being driven. Chevrolet has not issued a recall on the dangerous problem and is unwilling to work with me on what will end up being an extremely expensive repair. Their best estimate is that the plastic OEM fitting on the downstream side of the fuel pump has a minor fracture causing fuel to spew out on top of the fuel tank where it eventually evaporates, leaving no evidence of fuel leaks under the car. This problem has been acknowledged by GM as the factory warranty was extended to cover repairs of a known factory issue causing the fuel leaks.

Fuel and vapor leak. Fire hazard

- Wimauma, FL, USA

My 2009 Corvette has an increasing fuel smell emanating from my Corvette's driver side rear wheel well. The fuel vapor smell is so strong that can create a dangerous situation when the car is park in the garage where my gas hot water heater is located. After researching the issue, I've come across numerous reports of covette C6 owners reporting the same issue. The consensus seems to be that hairline cracks develop on the top of the fuel tanks causing fuel to leak on and down the side of the tank. Obviously this could lead to a serious fire hazard if it were to leak on to the vehicles exhaust. With the amount of C6 owners reporting this same issue and the potential for extreme fire hazard, I feel that General Motors should address the issue. I am the original owner ofthe car and never been informed by General Motors about a recall or a repair to correct the problem. I hope that filing this report will help getting this problem corrected.

Fuel smell after filling up gas tank. Apparently the gas pump on drivers side made of plastic has tendency to crack. GM had previously paid for this repair but limited coverage to 10 yrs and/or 120 thousand miles. Bought new to me 2009 vette with 132K miles, delaer now wanting to charge $3300 for parts/labor. Cannot park in garage due to gas fumes, also dangerous to drive.

Smell of fuel in cabin while driving or parked.

I bought this car last year on September, the car for just 3500 miles, on November that year I put my car in storage, I picked my car up this year on March. Two months ago, I realized that after fueling my car a really strong smell like gas was present, I checked underneath both I couldn't see any leakage, but I checked the driver's side gas tank and it was kind of wet, I saw traces of gas droplets. I found online that GMC posted a bulletin to get fixed this issue on lots of C6 Corvettes, I took that bulletin to the dealer and they said that the time for that bulletin expired last year on June, I explained to them that I got the car on September and also my car just had 3500 miles, but the said that if I want my car to get fixed I have to pay. I told me that it's not fair because this issue is GMC fault. This is why I'm filling this complain with you. I was able just to upload one pic but I have more, showing the gas tank wet.
