Corvette

  • 5,900 miles
I am the owner of a 2019 Corvette ZR1. I was driving when I heard a loud rattle sound coming from the front bumper area. During this time the front end of my car became hard to control. I slowed down, parked the car and inspected the front end. Upon inspection I saw that my front splitter had nearly disconnected from my car. I tried to drive slowly and make it home but the splitter was scraping and I didn't feel that it was safe. I also didnt want to cause any more damage. Upon inspection from a shop it was found that the center support bracket that holds the front splitter on properly was never installed on my during pre-delivery inspection. After speaking with several other ZR1 owners that this has happened to we now believe that some Chevy dealers are forgetting to put this center support bracket on during pre-delivery inspection which we believe creates a very dangerous situation. We have informed Chevy about this safety issue but they have not responded.

Corvette

  • 305 miles
Loss of power steering assist at 198, 213, 268, 305, and 314 miles. Vehicle was purchased new on June 29, 2019 and now has 322 miles on it. Incidents occurred while backing out of a driveway, changing lanes on the highway at 50 mph, on a highway curve at 55 mph, on a residential street at 25 mph, and coming to a stop in a turn lane. Dealer I went to after the second occurrence reset the code (co47A) and sent me on my way. Power steering assist would return after turning the car off and restarting it. Symptoms are the same as on GM recall N182182760 and NHTSA campaign # 19V086000

Corvette

  • 1,000 miles
Vehicle makes a bumping, grinding metalic noise when turning slowly in either direction. Or in reverse. It has been seen by two dealers on three separate occasions. The last time I was given a bulletin (#14-03-10-001D) 3-2-17, from Chevrolet stating that this was typical of many Corvettes due to "ackermann effect" causing tire chatter when turning slowly at a tight angle. My vehicle did not exhibit this problem until approx.1,000 miles and has progressively gotten worse and it now has over 4,000 miles on the odometer. I have driven this car in a driving rain with slick pavement, and the noise is even louder, so that if tire chatter were the problem, I would think that the noise would go away, or at least lessen somewhat. It did not. It is my opinion that at some point, this car's front suspension will break, possibly causing an accident.
