Potential Consequences:
Bad smell of gas while parked in garage. Looked underneath and was leaking fuel. Looked online early c7 corvette 15-18 has a special recall for the fuel receiver and tank because it was leaking.

WHEELS
Potential Consequences:
The rim cracked from the outside edge and progressed until air begin to leak. The dealer will not replace the rim unless you bought a tire and rim policy. But the manufacture of the tire does warrantee the tire and the dealer knows that to be the case. So the dealer knows the rims are the problem. I have researched and many others have the very same problem with their Corvette rims cracking until air is lost. These rims are definitely improperly designed and they should be recalled.

Defect Description:
WHEELS
Potential Consequences:
In February 2021, my Chevy dealer service department found that both of my rear wheels were bent and had to be repaired. My Corvette had 13,319 miles on it and I had never run off road or hit a major pot hole to cause this level of damage. The service technician said that this was 'common' on 2017 to 2019 Corvette Grand Sport and Z06 OEM wheels. Additionally, the wheels would probably 'crack' in the future and need to be replaced. I find this totally unacceptable that GM (Chevy) would design and manufacture defective wheels on a sports car, or any of their vehicles.

Defect Description:
WHEELS
Potential Consequences:
Upon tire change, 3 cracks noted in right passenger wheel. Problem diagnosed at Discount Tire (1475 Austin Hwy, San Antonio, TX 78209) on 6/5/2021. No known obvious road hazards or incidents that could have explained wheel fractures. Due to severity of wheel cracks, it was not even safe to drive home from Discount Tire (per the technicians there). There was concern for eminent wheel failure that would risk loss of control of car and injury to self/others. Car was left there until new wheel can be ordered and shipped. Upon review of internet, this is a recurring problem owners of this model of Corvette have been reporting. There is concern for design issues, wheel selection, and tire selection leading to repeated wheel failures. More wheel failures are expected in the future raising concerns for potential safety risks.

WHEELS
Potential Consequences:
CAR WAS TAKEN TO A LOCAL DEALER TO HAVE 4 NEW TIRES INSTALLED. UPON INSTALLATION THE DEALER DISCOVERED BOTH REAR RIMS WERE CRACKED (1 COULD NOT HOLD AIR) AND ONE FRONT RIM WAS BENT. THE DEALER WILL NOT COVER THE WHEELS AND MY WHEEL INSURANCE WILL NOT COVER ANYTHING BUT OEM PARTS. I SECURED FORGED WHEELS AS I AM CONCERNED ABOUT MY SAFETY BY REPLACING THE SAME RIMS THAT CAME WITH THE CAR. THE CAR WAS STATIONARY WHEN THE PROBLEM WAS DISCOVERED. I AM AFRAID TO DRIVE THE CAR WITH THE OEM WHEELS. GM IS CLAIMING DRIVING BEHAVIOR AND/OR POTHOLES. I HAVE BEEN DRIVING CORVETTES ON AND OFF SINCE 1986 AND NEVER HAD ANY CRACKED RIMS. IN ALL THAT TIME MY DRIVING HABITS HAVE NOT SUDDENLY CHANGED. SECONDLY, IT IS HIGHLY UNLIKELY THAT I WOULD HAVE THREE DEFECTIVE RIMS ALL AT THE SAME TIME SIMPLY DUE TO POT HOLES. AFTER CONDUCTING RESEARCH MY STRONGEST BELIEF IS THAT SINCE THE RIM IS CAST AND NOT FORGED IT LACKS THE STRENGTH NEED FOR A PERFORMANCE VEHICLE AND THAT THE CRACKS ARE FATIGUE CRACKS WHICH OCCUR OVER TIME. FURTHER, THERE IS NO SENSOR OR WARNING SYSTEM TO LET YOU KNOW THE CRACKS ARE PRESENT. IN ADDITION, THE PROBLEM IS MAGNIFIED IN THAT THE CRACKS ARE ON THE INSIDE OF THE RIM AND NOT VISIBLE WHEN LOOKING AT THE WHEEL. IT IS MY BELIEF THAT THERE WILL BE FATALITIES ATTRIBUTABLE TO THIS DEFECT. I AM UPLOADING EVERYTHING I SENT TO MY INSURER WHO INFORMED ME THAT THEY CANNOT COVER AFTER MARKET WHEELS, EVEN THOUGH THEY WERE LESS EXPENSIVE. PS: I CANNOT TELL FROM YOUR FILE UPLOAD IF BOTH FILES WERE LOADED.

I PURCHASED MY VEHICLE IN OCTOBER OF 2019. ON, OR ABOUT JANUARY 4, 2021, MY RIGHT REAR WHEEL STARTED TO LOSE AIR. I ASSUMED THAT THE TIRE NEEDED TO BE REPAIRED OR REPLACED. I TOOK MY VEHICLE TO A TIRE SHOP AND THEY COULD NOT FIND ANYTHING WRONG WITH THE TIRE. AFTER FURTHER INVESTIGATION, A HAIR-LINE CRACK WAS DISCOVERED IN THE WHEEL. THERE WAS NO INDICATION OF AN IMPACT, OR DAMAGE ON THE SURFACE OF THE WHEEL ( ON THE INSIDE THE WHEEL NOR THE OUTSIDE OF THE WHEEL). MY CAR IS UNDER WARRANTY, SO I TOOK THE VEHICLE TO NELSON HALL CHEVROLET IN MERIDIAN FOR REPLACEMENT UNDER WARRANTY. I WAS INFORMED BY THE SERVICE TECHNICIAN THAT SHE HAD TO GET APPROVAL FROM GENERAL MOTORS BEFORE THEY COULD REPLACE THE WHEEL ON MY VEHICLE. GENERAL MOTORS REFUSED TO REPLACE THE WHEEL ON MY VEHICLE. I CALLED GENERAL MOTORS MYSELF AND FILED A COMPLAINT AND TO APPEAL THEIR DECISION NOT TO REPLACE MY WHEEL. AFTER REPEATED ATTEMPTS, GENERAL MOTORS STILL REFUSED TO REPLACE THE WHEEL ON MY VEHICLE. I HAVE A VEHICLE THAT IS UNDER WARRANTY, THAT I CAN NOT ENJOY BECAUSE OF GENERAL MOTORS' REFUSAL TO HONOR THE WARRANTY ON MY VEHICLE. PLEASE NOTE, THAT I HAVE NOT BEEN IN AN ACCIDENT, NOR IS THERE ANY DAMAGE ON THE SURFACE OF THE WHEEL. THIS IS A FACTORY OR A DESIGN DEFECT...I KEEP THE VEHICLE IN MY GARAGE.

TOOK CORVETTE TO THREEWAY CHEVROLET IN BAKERSFIELD ON 6/9/20 FOR ALIGNMENT AND WAS TOLD THAT ALL FOUR TRIMS ARE BENT AND CRACKED. AND EVEN THOUGH IT HAS BUMPER TO BUMPER WARRANTY, THEY WON'T COVER THE TRIMS. I HAVE SINCE SPOKEN WITH THE MANAGER OF THREEWAY, AND HE AGREED THAT IT IS A MANUFACTURER DEFECT AND SHOULD BE COVERED. HE SAID , NO WAY SOMEONE COULD BEND AND CRACK ALL 4 TIMES, AND NOT CAUSE ALOT OF DAMAGE TO CAR, AND AIRBAGS WOULD DEPLOY. CAN YOU HELP ME PLEASE.

I WAS DRIVING MY 2019 CHEVROLET GRAND SPORT CORVETTE IN MY NEIGHBORHOOD, IN OCTOBER 2020. MY TIRE PRESSURE WARNING LIGHT CAME ON. I WAS ABLE TO DETERMINE MY RIGHT REAR TIRE PRESSURE HAD DROPPED PRECARIOUSLY. I HAVE RUN FLAT MICHELIN TIRES AND WAS ABLE TO DRIVE HOME SAFELY. I INFLATED MY TIRE TO 30LBS PSI AND PARKED IT IN MY GARAGE. THE NEXT DAY I CHECKED MY TIRE PRESSURE OF ALL 4 TIRES AND ONCE AGAIN MY RIGHT REAR TIRE WAS LOW. IT WOULD NOT HOLD AIR. I CALLED CRISWELL CHEVROLET WHERE I PURCHASED MY CAR. THEY ASKED IF I COULD DRIVE MY CAR TO THEIR FACILITY IN MARYLAND. I LIVE IN NEW JERSY AND I DIDNT FEEL SAFE DRIVING MY CAR UNDER THE CIRCUMSTANCES TO THEM. THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT WAS VERY FAMILIAR WITH THE CRACKED / BENT WHEEL ISSUE AFFECTING C7 GRAND SPORT AND Z06 CORVETTES. I WAS ADVISED TO GO TO A LOCAL CHEVROLET DEALERSHIP AND HAVE THEM INSPECT MY WHEELS. I TOOK IT TO GLOBAL CHEVROLET IN NORTH PLAINFIELD ,N.J.. UPON INSPECTION, THEY DETERMINED I HAD A CRACKED RIGHT REAR WHEEL AND IT NEEDED TO BE REPLACED.. I DID /DO NOT ABUSE MY CAR.
