The lcd that shows the rear view camera started flickering and now is completely black. After researching the internet, I conclude that it is a chronic problem with this year of Corvette.

Rear differential assembly per GM's service bulletin no: 13384 "summary: The rear differential assembly in certain 2014 Chevrolet Corvettes were shipped with improper fluid levels. Operating the vehicle without sufficient fluid in the rear differential assembly could produce a loud whine and/or gear or bearing noise." These vehicles were then topped off with fluid and some still had noises present requiring differential assemblies to be replaced however the issue persists. Dealers and the manufacter were telling customers the "warble" sound they hear is just due to engine noise/vibration and the cylinder deactivation. Now that vehicles are out of warranty the issue is that differentials internals are beyond repair and need replacing. GM has choosen not to issue a standard recall, even the previously mentioned 2014 models were notified, handled at dealers, and put a stop sale on vehicles for the issue but they ended that program 11/30/2015. Vehicles that experience the issue will commonly have a warning indicator saying "service rear axle" or "rear axle system off" pop up indicating where the issue is. Common checks include fluid level, battery connection, controller/sensor plug connections and more. Vehicles that experience this issue can lose ability to control their vehicle at speed or have their drive axles lock up while moving causing injuries, fatalities, and more avoidable damages

Infotainment system and radio display has intermittent flickering or rolling screen while car is moving or stationary. This flickering is a concern because the screen can be seen out of the corner of your eyes causing dangerous distracted vision while driving. Also, the back up camera has flickering that makes backing up difficult and dangerous. This started in October 2018 and hasn't disappeared. GM has known about the problem since Nov. 2013 (#pic5934 and P1-1318nhtsa#10056464). I contacted General Motors about the problem only to get a run around of different customer service reps and different service request numbers, but no action. They never return their phone calls. They claim that they give cost assistance, but only after I pay a dealership to diagnose the problem, which I did. To replace the system costs $1335. They barely offered any cost assistance even though I own 2 GM vehicles, have them serviced at GM dealerships, in southern California where most people drive foreign vehicles. The foreign cars that I have owned in the past stand by their vehicles. I feel GM should do the same especially if they want to compete in the crowded so. Cal. Market. GM seems to be abandoning their duty of not issuing a recall even though there has been numerous complaints about their infotainment system. The dealership that I take my vehicle to in thousand oaks, ca claims that they have had 7 infotainment system complaints (and replacements) and that's just one dealership out of hundred of thousands of dealerships across the us and therefore hundred of thousands complaints. Complaints about this are all over the internet. It's a problem that needs to be addressed and I need help. I have a video of my flickering screen and would like to email it. How do I do this?

Radio flickers and screen rolls as the car is driving causing you to take your eyes off the road constantly creating a big distraction. This happens everytime the car is operating.

Low sp crsh car shattered and fell apart at all weld points in the frame. Occupants wore seat belts. I was found in the road, my passenger died. The front of car broke off and back broke off all at the welded connections leaving the occupants exposed. Cast aluminum sections of the frame is where all the welds failed. Cast aluminum cannot be welded, unknown when I purchased car. Was not in manual or specs, or I would not have bought this piece of trash. Crash at speed of 40-50, country road on slight curve. Front wheel on right hit a culvert pipe.

Im standing in the kitchen now next to the garage and can barely finish typing this before having to move to the living room I have taken the vehice to the Chevy service department numerous times and they say they can't smell or find anything, so its obvious the problem is intermittent.
