POWER TRAIN03/31/2025
After an oil change at a Chevrolet dealer I drove to get gas. After refueling I got in and was preparing to drive away when I noticed the clutch pedal was on the floor and would not pop back up ready to be used. I had the car towed to the Chevrolet dealer where I learned the hydraulic clutch master cylinder had failed. I was lucky this didn’t happen while o was driving the car on the highway. I am not sure how that would have affected the drivability of the vehicle but it could have been very dangerous. I had received a letter from Chevrolet years earlier that described the problem and said if it happened within 10 years or 100,000 miles they would repair it. Mine failed after the 10 years but at only 8,500 miles. This system of not actually recalling the car for repair but instead issuing the owner a “notice”, doesn't seem fair for someone who doesn’t drive their vehicle many miles but is still costly and potentially dangerous when it occurs while the vehicle is being driven.

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM10/02/2023
Purchased 3 weeks ago. Third time filling up and first time in the garage. Noticed the fuel tank is leaking at the pump due to defective plastic. Car only has 55k miles, this should not be an issue. Is Chevy going to fix this or am I out the 2k repair bill?

The fuel tank is leaking at the pump due to defective plastic. There should be a lot of reports of this happening on this vehicle and it is more dangerous than any other defect I have ever heard of.

At 85,000 miles the timing chain triggered the check engine light to come on. At 100,037 miles the engine was burning oil. Three mechanics confirmed that the engine needed to be replaced. An estimated cost of $8,000 - $12,000.
FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM03/22/2022
After filling up my gas tank in my 2010 Chevrolet Corvette I notice a strong gas smell that permeates through my entire garage and house. Upon investigation from an auto repair shop it has been determined I need to replace a faulty cracked fuel pump. Upon further investigation it seems there was a "Special Coverage Adjustment" from GM for this repair only for up to 120k miles. This should be a recall!!! as it is a very dangerous situation! So because I am over 120k , (just purchased from dealer) I am responsible for the 3k repair? That is 100% not acceptable. 15682 Primary Tank Module Flange Fuel and Vapor Leaks Copyright 2016 General Motors. Reference Number: N150682 Release Date: January 2017 GWM Number: 2015682

Upon filling the car to a full tank that is a strong gas smell that permeates the cab. This smell is persistent even while driving with the convertible top down. People driving behind me were are able to smell the gasoline vapors. The vapors and smell subside once I get below 3/4 tank of gas.
FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM11/28/2021
Seems to be a common issue and GM has a tsb for it but they only covered the repare for 10 years and 120k I am at 11 with 70k miles. The fuel is leaking from the top of the tank and could cause a fire.
