CHEVROLET CORVETTE 1993 car safety problem was reported on June 01, 1996.CHEVROLET CORVETTE 1993, manufactured by GENERAL MOTORS LLC had a problem with ELECTRICAL SYSTEM . THE VEHICLE'S ENGINE UNDER A LOAD SKIPS AND OPERATES AS THOUGH IT IS ON 4 CYLINDERS ONLY. WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS UNDER WARRANTY THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A GM DEALERSHIP FOR SERVICING AND WE WERE INFORMED OF THE RECALL WHEN THE VEHICLE HAD APPROX 17000 MILES. THE DEALERSHIP SERVICED THE VEHICLE AND SUPPOSEDLY COVERED THE RECALL. SOME YEARS LATER THE DISTRIBUTOR CAP FAILED ON THE LT1 ENGINE FOR THE SECOND TIME AT APPROX 37000 MILES, THE REPAIR WAS MADE AT AN INDEPENDENT REPAIR FACILITY DUE TO THE EXHORBORENT PRICES AT THE DEALERSHIP. NOW AT APPROX 54000 THE VEHICLE IS EXPERIENCING THE SAME ISSUE. THIS IS A CORVETTE, MAKING IT A COLLECTORS CAR. IT IS THE SUPPOSED TO BE THE ALL AMERICAN SPORTS CAR, NOT TO MENTION IT IS SUPPOSED TO BE EVEN MORE COLLECTIBLE BECAUSE IT IS THE 40TH ANNIVERSARY EDITION. I AM APPALLED AT THE WORKMANSHIP AND POOR LEVEL OF CUSTOMER SERVICE EXPERIENCED FROM GM. WHILE THIS VEHICLE MAY BE OLD BY YEARS, IT HAS LESS MILEAGE THAN MY 2006 DURANGO, YET IT RUNS WORSE! GM IS OF NO HELP, AND YET THEY ARE AWARE OF THE MANUFACTURING DEFECT BECAUSE WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS ONLY A YEAR OR SO OLD THEY ISSUED A RECALL FOR THE PROBLEM I AM EXPERIENCING. THIS IS THE THIRD REPAIR FOR THE SAME PROBLEM, THIS VEHICLE IS NOT A DRIVE EVERYDAY VEHICLE, IT IS MEANT TO BE A COLLECTOR'S VEHICLE. ALSO, GM STOPPED MANUFACTURING THIS PARTICULAR ENGINE BECAUSE OF IT'S ISSUES. *TR.Mileage was 17000 miles. Vehicle Identification Number (VIN):1G1YY23P7P5.
