    When the gas tanks are more than 1/2 full the inside of the car fills with gas fumes the only way to prevent is to keep the Tanks less than half full…… worried the fumes will ignite under the right conditions…….. supposedly this is a well documented problem with the C-6 corvettes

    Incident Jun 3, 2026

  • Fuel/propulsion systemFiled Sep 17, 2025

    Approximately 2 months ago I noticed a faint gasoline odor when I entered our garage. I thought that it might be due to a recent re-call on my Honda Gold Wing which involved the fuel system. The motorcycle was repaired by the dealer, returned and I never rode it until yesterday. The smell went away. I filled the Corvette, probably 3 weeks ago and the odor returned. We parked my wife's Mazda outside but the odor continued with the Corvette inside, in its normal space. I checked the floor under each vehicle, diligently, and thankfully no liquid fuel was apparent. Parking the Corvette outside, the odor went away and perhaps the same day, when leaving an evening event, I placed some folding chairs in the "trunk" of the Corvette and noticed the odor. The following day, I went to the Chevrolet dealer I normally have repair work done to make arrangements to bring it in for inspection and did so on September 8th. A few days later, I was advised that there was a leak at the top of the left tank and that the tank would have to be removed and re-sealed at the top where there is an entry area for a part involved with the fuel system. The dealer advised that they thought there was a re-call for this matter but found that either there wasn't one or it expired. I forget which. My search on GM's website for recalls as well as yours, doesn't indicate that there was one BUT this is really a serious matter and the fix is expensive. I bought the vehicle from the original owner, who is a retired GM engineer for their manufacturing plants. It has not been in an accident.

    Unknown. Gasoline fumes when parked with over a half tank of fuel. Fills my garage with the smell..purchased this in 2022 and I was unaware of this problem until I put it in my garage after filling the tank completely.

    Incident Nov 9, 2022

  • Fuel/propulsion systemFiled Nov 12, 2024

    Fuel leak issue. I have a fuel leak coming from a faulty fuel pump on the driver'side. Very dangerous. Leaking down on side of tank. Could possibly leak down onto exhaust.GM said there was nothing they could do. I have taken it to Landers Mclarty Chevrolet in Huntsville, AL for replacement. Cost is $1963.02. There should have been a recall instead of a special advisory since they admitted it was a faulty plastic that causes the problem.

  • Exterior lighting, fuel/propulsion systemFiled Nov 5, 2024

  • Fuel/propulsion systemFiled Jan 11, 2024

    warning light came on checked code p0442 came up stating a small vapor leak in fuel system. replaced fuel cap , smoke test and found that the evap vent solenoid was leaking. Remove and replace fuel tank vent valve program module. Still smelled fuel. Took vette to a dealership had them do a multipoint inspection they pinpointed and diagnose the problem as the left side fuel tank module and all necessary gaskets and seals needed to be replace at a out of this world price. I believe this to be a safety risk.

    Incident Dec 18, 2023

  • Fuel/propulsion systemFiled Dec 23, 2023

    Strong fuel smell from defective part on fuel assembly. I was told this is a $4000 fix for a part that was knowingly bad and GM did nothing about it. This is a fire hazard and could burn my house down the gas smell in my garage is overwhelming

    Incident Dec 23, 2023

  • Fuel/propulsion systemFiled Jul 21, 2023

    The vehicle in question was 14 years old with 20,950 original miles on it. This safety issue was the direct result of a faulty part from the factory [leaking fuel pump flange assembly] that manifested itself in a very strong fuel smell, both in the vehicle while driving, as well as in my garage. It was caused by raw gasoline leaking out of the primary fuel pump that was cracked and leaked out of the fitting on the top of the fuel tank. [NOTE: GM had previously acknowledged the problem in a service advisory bulletin on Jan 17, 2017 #N150682 but was not subject to a recall]. I believe this problem should have resulted in a recall, not just a Service Advisory Bulletin. This vehicle could have very easily caught fire, while driving down the highway or idling in traffic; not to mention the fact that a buildup of gasoline fumes in the confined space of a garage could have caused an explosion and / or fire. Either or both situations could have resulted in loss of life to the driver, passengers or other innocent bystanders as well as the destruction of property. There were no warning messages on the Driver Information System of the car.

      Leaking fuel around defective fuel pump. Serious fire/fume hazard.

      Incident Mar 22, 2023

    • Fuel/propulsion systemFiled Mar 14, 2023

      Special Coverage Adjustment 15682 Primary Tank Module Flange Fuel and Vapor Leaks The above Special Coverage Adjustment was issued by General Motors regarding fuel leakage problem in certain Corvette and Cadillac vehicles. General Motors established a date certain for the vapor and/or fuel leakage involving a failing plastic located on the left side top of the fuel cell. Unfortunately, the condition of the platic part failing is not predicable and might not be detected within the date range GM set. My 2009 Corvette is now experiencing the issue--vapor detection which means there is a small but maybe unnoticed amount of fuel actually leaking at the top of the fuel cell. Fuel leaking in area immediately above the exhaust might well result in a fire while being driven and garaged. GM should have made repairs regardless of the Company date range. GM should make repairs regardless of when the vehicle might demonstrate a hazard situation do to a part failure.

      Traction control alarm and goes into active handling very difficult to steer our control usually happens when going through Corner. Chevy does know this happens there is a number here for their investigation or problem EA09-002

      Incident Mar 28, 2022

    • Fuel/propulsion systemFiled Jan 28, 2022

      Gas is leaking/spraying from a defective high pressure fitting on top of left side fuel tank fuel pump. My garage was full of gas fumes and a strong odor was seeping into my home. Car had to be removed from garage for fear of explosion. This is a known and very common problem with C6 Corvette fuel pumps. GM will only fix if less than 10 years old and less than 120,000 miles. Dealer first said my car would be covered and not to worry, but after disassembling and confirming this common issue, they then tell me I'm not covered and must pay out of pocket. My car is in pieces and they are waiting for a back ordered pump. My car has 45000 miles but is more than 10 years old so I must now pay $2,700. to correct a potentially deadly and well documented fuel system defect. Why is there no recall for this extremely hazardous defect?

      Incident Jan 27, 2022

    • Fuel/propulsion systemFiled Dec 26, 2021

      A strong fuel odor persists around the driver's side fuel tank/fuel filler neck. This odor is stronger when the tank exceeds 5/8ths full. A Special Coverage Adjustment was issued by Chevrolet, ref #N150682, GWM #2015682 in January 2017 which extended the factory warranty to 10 years or 120,000 miles. I purchased this vehicle in July 2020 which exceeds that extended warranty. The fuel odor is a major problem as the vehicle is parked inside a closed garage and the vapors are strong enough to enter the house. Also the fuel odor is present inside the cabin as the vehicle is being driven. Chevrolet has not issued a recall on the dangerous problem and is unwilling to work with me on what will end up being an extremely expensive repair. Their best estimate is that the plastic OEM fitting on the downstream side of the fuel pump has a minor fracture causing fuel to spew out on top of the fuel tank where it eventually evaporates, leaving no evidence of fuel leaks under the car. This problem has been acknowledged by GM as the factory warranty was extended to cover repairs of a known factory issue causing the fuel leaks.

      FUEL AND VAPOR LEAK. FIRE HAZARD

      Incident Jan 19, 2021

    • Fuel/propulsion systemFiled Dec 27, 2020

      MY 2009 CORVETTE HAS AN INCREASING FUEL SMELL EMANATING FROM MY CORVETTE'S DRIVER SIDE REAR WHEEL WELL. THE FUEL VAPOR SMELL IS SO STRONG THAT CAN CREATE A DANGEROUS SITUATION WHEN THE CAR IS PARK IN THE GARAGE WHERE MY GAS HOT WATER HEATER IS LOCATED. AFTER RESEARCHING THE ISSUE, I'VE COME ACROSS NUMEROUS REPORTS OF COVETTE C6 OWNERS REPORTING THE SAME ISSUE. THE CONSENSUS SEEMS TO BE THAT HAIRLINE CRACKS DEVELOP ON THE TOP OF THE FUEL TANKS CAUSING FUEL TO LEAK ON AND DOWN THE SIDE OF THE TANK. OBVIOUSLY THIS COULD LEAD TO A SERIOUS FIRE HAZARD IF IT WERE TO LEAK ON TO THE VEHICLES EXHAUST. WITH THE AMOUNT OF C6 OWNERS REPORTING THIS SAME ISSUE AND THE POTENTIAL FOR EXTREME FIRE HAZARD, I FEEL THAT GENERAL MOTORS SHOULD ADDRESS THE ISSUE. I AM THE ORIGINAL OWNER OFTHE CAR AND NEVER BEEN INFORMED BY GENERAL MOTORS ABOUT A RECALL OR A REPAIR TO CORRECT THE PROBLEM. I HOPE THAT FILING THIS REPORT WILL HELP GETTING THIS PROBLEM CORRECTED.

TWO MONTHS AGO, I REALIZED THAT AFTER FUELING MY CAR A REALLY STRONG SMELL LIKE GAS WAS PRESENT, I CHECKED UNDERNEATH BOTH I COULDN'T SEE ANY LEAKAGE, BUT I CHECKED THE DRIVER'S SIDE GAS TANK AND IT WAS KIND OF WET, I SAW TRACES OF GAS DROPLETS. I FOUND ONLINE THAT GMC POSTED A BULLETIN TO GET FIXED THIS ISSUE ON LOTS OF C6 CORVETTES, I TOOK THAT BULLETIN TO THE DEALER AND THEY SAID THAT THE TIME FOR THAT BULLETIN EXPIRED LAST YEAR ON JUNE, I EXPLAINED TO THEM THAT I GOT THE CAR ON SEPTEMBER AND ALSO MY CAR JUST HAD 3500 MILES, BUT THE SAID THAT IF I WANT MY CAR TO GET FIXED I HAVE TO PAY.

    • Power trainFiled Jun 18, 2020

      THIS IS HAPPENING INTERMITTENTLY, BUT FREQUENTLY: AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION SHIFTER STAYS LOCKED IN PARK, DESPITE ENGINE RUNNING AND FOOT FIRMLY ON THE BRAKE PEDAL. CAN'T SHIFT OUT OF PARK. THIS HAPPENS WHEN CAR IS PARKED, STARTING IT UP AND TRYING TO SHIFT INTO REVERSE OR DRIVE. THE PROBLEM HAS SOMETHING TO DO WITH THE ELECTRONIC/MECHANICAL INTERLOCK OF THE AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION. THERE IS AN ELECTRONIC SWITCH OR SOLENOID THAT IS MALFUNCTIONING, THE PREVENTS THE MECHANICAL TRANSMISSION LOCK FROM DISENGAGING. TO WORKAROUND THE PROBLEM, YOU CAN TRY TO: - TURN THE CAR OFF, AND RESTART IT. AFTER MULTIPLE TRIES, IF YOU ARE LUCKY THE TRANSMISSION INTERLOCK MAY RELEASE SUCCESSFULLY. - THERE IS AN EMERGENCY WORKAROUND PROCEDURE WHERE BY PUTTING THE CAR IN ACCESSORY MODE BEFORE STARTING IT, YOU CAN BYPASS THE INTERLOCK SYSTEM. - THE CHEVROLET DEALERS I HAVE HEARD FROM RECOMMEND REPLACING THE ENTIRE SHIFTER SYSTEM FOR $700-$1000. BUT THE NEW SHIFTERS HAVE THE VERY SAME DESIGN PROBLEM! SO NEW SHIFTERS ARE SUSCEPTIBLE TO THE SAME FAILURES IN THE FUTURE! WHEN GOOGLING THIS ISSUE ON THE INTERNET FORUMS, IT APPEARS THIS IS A WELL-KNOWN PROBLEM AFFECTING "6TH-GENERATION" CORVETTES MANUFACTURED BETWEEN 2005 AND 2013. (I HAVE A 2009 MODEL.) APPARENTLY GM HAS KNOWN ABOUT THIS PROBLEM FOR YEARS, BUT HAS NOT INVESTED IN ANY RECALL. AS A RESULT, IT APPEARS MANY OWNERS ARE CHOOSING TO DISABLE THE TRANSMISSION INTERLOCK SINCE IT IS UNRELIABLE. I WOULD LIKE TO URGE GM TO ISSUE A RECALL TO FIX THIS PROBLEM. *TR
