In owners' words

What Corvette owners report

Recent fuel/propulsion system complaints filed with NHTSA, shortened. Personal details are removed.

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?
Complaint 11547825 · Oct 2, 2023
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.
Complaint 11494822 · Nov 24, 2022
Have a strong odor of gasoline coming from vehicle parked in garage. Have not noticed any gasoline in the garage floor, only the strong odor.
