TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2004 CHEVROLET CORVETTE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE STEERING COLUMN WAS MALFUNCTIONING. THE LOCKING PIN FOR THE ANTI-THEFT DEVICE FOR THE STEERING COLUMN WAS NOT WORKING AND STOPPED THE VEHICLE FROM MOVING. THE DEALER WAS NOT CONTACTED.

THE FUEL TANK LEAKS WHEN THE ENGINE IS RUNNING. IN 2010, THIS CONDITION RESULTED IN AN ADDITIONAL WARRANTY FOR THE ISSUE THAT EXPIRED IN 2014, BUT I HAVE A LOWER MILEAGE CAR (LESS THAN 18,000 MILES) SO THE ISSUE DID NOT OCCUR UNTIL NOW. THE PROBLEM EMERGED SUDDENLY AFTER FULLY REFILLING THE FUEL TANK RECENTLY.

TL* THE CONTACT CALLED ON BEHALF OF AN OWNER OF A 2004 CHEVROLET CORVETTE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC DUE TO A FUEL LEAK. THE MECHANIC DETERMINED THAT THE PLASTIC OPENING OF THE FUEL TANK, WHICH CONNECTED A PRIMARY TANK TO THE SECONDARY TANK HOSE, WAS FRACTURED AND FUEL WAS LEAKING. THE VEHICLE NEEDED A NEW FUEL TANK AND CROSSOVER COMPONENTS. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TAKEN TO THE DEALER FOR DIAGNOSTIC TESTING. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 39,000.

I BOUGHT A 2004 CORVETTE USED WITH 67K MILES ON IT. THE DEALERSHIP HAD ONLY FILLED THE TANK TO LESS THAN HALF FULL.,AFTER MY FIRST FILL UP GAS POURED OUT FROM UNDERNEATH, BEHIND DRIVERS SIDE TIRE. I PAID $ 16,500 FOR THE CAR , SO I TOOK IT BACK TO DEALER AND THEY SAID THEY WOULD REPAIR. AFTER ABOUT 10 DAYS I WENT TO DEALER AND NOTICED THE CAR HAD NOT EVEN MOVED. HE SAID THEY DID NOT KNOW HOW TO FIX IT AND THEY HAD ANOTHER DEALERSHIP IN ANOTHER STATE THAT THEY WOULD NEED TO TAKE IT TO. I LEFT WITH THE CAR UNREPAIRED.IS THERE ANYTHING I CAN DO ? I BELIEVE IT IS A RECALL ON THE CROSSOVER TUBE AND THE RECALL HAS EXPIRED. CLOSE TO A $1500 TO $1800 REPAIR

THERE IS A KNOWN LEAK IN THE LEFT FUEL TANK. MY VEHICLE HAS SYMPTOMS BUT WAS NEVER FIXED. VEHICLE IS 15 YEARS OLD BUT ONLY 76,000 MILES.

ONE DAY I NOTICED THAT MY GARAGE HAD A STRONG GAS SMELL. OVER TIME, I REALIZED THAT IF MY GAS TANK WAS APPROX. BELOW 1/3 FULL IT DID NOT SMELL. CHEVROLET INFORMED ME IT WAS COVERED FOR 100,000 MILES/10 YEARS WHICHEVER COMES FIRST. HOWEVER, I NEVER KNEW A RECALL COULD HAVE A TIME LIMIT BECAUSE OBVIOUSLY THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE. I WROTE CHEVROLET A CERTIFIED LETTER DESCRIBING MY PROBLEM WITH NO RESPONSE. THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM WHICH IS CONFIRMED BY LOOKING AT YOUR SITE.
