CHEVROLET CORVETTE 2004 Safety Review #10078403

CHEVROLET CORVETTE 2004 car safety problem was reported on June 16, 2004.CHEVROLET CORVETTE 2004, manufactured by General Motors LLC had a problem with FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE:DELIVERY:FUEL PUMP . I HAVE A BRAND NEW 2004 CORVETTE 1 1/2 MONTHS OLD WITH ONLY 1341 MILES ON IT. WHILE DRIVING HOME IN RUSH HOUR DALLAS TRAFFIC ON A VERY BUSY FAST MOVING ROAD, MY ENGINE DIED IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD. I COULD NOT RESTART THE CAR & WAS IN A VERY SERIOUS SITUATION RISKING THE POSSIBILITY OF BEING REAR ENDED. LUCKILY A POLICEMAN CAME BY AND PARKED BEHIND ME TO SHIELD ME FROM THE TRAFFIC. IF I HAD BEEN ON THE FREEWAY, I COULD HAVE BEEN KILLED. THE GM DEALER WHERE I PURCHASED THE CAR (RAY HUFFINES CHEVROLET OF PLANO) IS ACTING LIKE IT IS NO BIG DEAL. THEY SAID IT IS THE FUEL PUMP & THEY WILL REPLACE IT WHEN THEY CAN GET A FUEL PUMP AND IF IT HAPPENS AGAIN, TO BRING IT BACK. IF IT HAPPENS AGAIN & I WOULD BE ON THE FREEWAY, I MORE THAN LIKELY WOULD NOT BE ALIVE TO TAKE THE CAR BACK IN. I DRIVE 50+ MILES A DAY TO & FROM WORK MOSTLY FREEWAY DRIVING. I FEEL THE DEALERSHIP IS TRYING TO PUT MY LIFE IN JEOPARDY. I WANT MY MONEY BACK AND OUT OF THIS CAR. IN RESEARCHING, I HAVE FOUND THAT 127,000 2004 CORVETTES HAVE BEEN RECALLED FOR STEERING PROBLEMS. I WAS NEVER ADVISED OF THIS WHEN I PURCHASED THIS CAR OR OF ANY FUEL PUMP ISSUES. I HAVE PURCHASED A BRAND NEW CAR EVERY 3 YEARS FOR THE LAST 20 YEARS & I HAVE NEVER HAD A PROBLEM LIKE THIS, ESPECIALLY WITH A BRAND NEW $50,000 CAR AND I HAVE OWNED 280ZX, 300ZX, RX7, SUPRA, AND LEXUS. I NEED HELP FROM GM OR SOMEONE TO RESOLVE THIS. *JB.Mileage was 1341 miles. Vehicle Identification Number (VIN):1G1YY22G745. Chevrolet Corvette 2004 problem was reported in PLANO, TX. Original Owner.

THE PRESENT SAFETY RECALL OF LATE MODEL CORVETTES TO RECTIFIY A POTENTIALLY CATASTROPHIC STEERING LOCK WHILE TRAVELLING DOES NOT ELIMINATE THE SAFETY RISK IN VEHICLES EQUIPPED WITH MANUAL TRANSMISSIONS.

THE STEERING ON CARS EQUIPPED WITH MANUAL TRANSMISSIONS CAN STILL LOCK UP WHILE TRAVELLING AT HIGH SPEED - EVEN AFTER THE GM RECALL FIX. PLEASE ADDRESS THIS ISSUE - THIS IS STILL A POTENTIALLY SERIOUS CONDITION THAT SHOULD HAVE BEEN RESOLVED BY THE RECALL.*AK.Vehicle Identification Number (VIN):1G1YY22G645.

THE RECALL IS # 04006 - ELECTRONIC COLUMN LOCK SYSTEM. THIS RECALL WAS STARTED ON FEB. 9, 2004 ACCORDING TO YOUR SITE. 2) I PURCHASE THE 2004 CHEVROLET CORVETTE COUP ON SEPTEMBER 9, 2004. I QUESTION CHEVROLET'S COMMITMENT TO SAFETY. ISSUEING A RECALL IN FEB. OF 2004 AND NOT BOTHERING TO REPAIR THE DEFECT WELL THE CAR WAS IN THEIR TOTAL CONTROL FOR 8 MONTHS, THEN SELLING ME THE CAR KNOWING FULL WELL THE DEFECT HAD NOT BE FIX, THEN WAITING ANOTHER 9 MONTHS TO NOTIFY ME. I CONTACED THE DEALER ON MAY 16, 2005, TO SEE IF THE CAR HAD THE RECALL DEFECT REPAIRED. IT HAD NOT. SO CHEVROLET HAS WAITED A TOTAL OF 17 MONTHS. NOT EXACTLY A CONSUMER ADVOCATE FOR SAFETY TO THE DRIVING PUBLIC. 3)ACCORDING TO THE DEALER, THIS WORK CAN ONLY BE DONE DURING THE WEEK, NOT A WEEKEND. SO NOW, I HAVE TO MISS A DAY OF WORK FOR A PROBLEM THAT SHOULD HAVE BEEN TAKEN CARE OF BEFORE I EVEN PURCHASED THE CAR. NOW I KNOW WHY CHEVROLET ALWAYS SENDS OUT A SATIFSFACTION QUESTIONAIRE 30 DAYS AFTER PURCHASE, BECAUSE THEY KNOW MOST OF THEIR VEHICLES SHOULD LAST THAT LONG.

CHEVROLET CORVETTE 2004 Safety Review #10294955

CHEVROLET CORVETTE 2004 car safety problem was reported on June 25, 2009.CHEVROLET CORVETTE 2004, manufactured by GENERAL MOTORS CORP. had a problem with FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE . ON JUNE 25, 2009 I POSTED THE FOLLOWING THREAD ON THE CORVETTE FORUM WEBSITE: I BEGAN PUMPING FUEL SLOWLY AND WHEN THE FUEL STARTED TO SPILL UNDER THE CAR I STOPPED AND I COULD NOT DETECT THE LEAK POINT. THE FUEL GAUGE READ ¾ OF A TANK. AFTER A SHORT TIME PERIOD THE FUEL QUITS LEAKING. I AM GUESSING THAT I HAVE A CRACK IN THE FILL TUBE. COULD SOMETHING ELSE BE GOING ON THAT I AM NOT AWARE OF BESIDES A FILL TUBE CRACK? WOW, OF ALL THE THINGS THAT COULD GO WRONG WITH A CAR, THIS IS A FIRST FOR ME. THE SECOND TANK CONNECTOR JOINT ON MY CAR IS SPLIT ALSO. I WENT TO THE DEALERSHIP TO CHECK IT OUT FOR MYSELF. THEY PRESSURED UP THE TANK WITH NITROGEN/SMOKE AND SMOKE WAS POURING OUT OF THE CONNECTION JOINT. BAD NEWS...........$2400 TO REPAIR WITH NEW PARTS AND 9 HRS. OF LABOR..........THE GREAT NEWS.. THANK GOD FOR MY GMPP, IT'S COVERED. MY ONLY COMPLAINT IS WHY GMPP WOULD NOT COVER TO HAVE THE PARTS OVERNIGHTED FOR $100?? THEY WILL PAY THE EXTRA THREE DAYS OF CAR RENTAL INSTEAD, FOR A TOTAL OF 5 DAYS. JUST DOESN'T SEEM TO MAKE GOOD BUSINESS SENSE, OH THAT'S RIGHT IT'S GM!! FURTHER MORE THE CAR ONLY HAS 34K MILES ON IT, NEVER HAD THIS ISSUE WITH ANY OTHER VEHICLE. *TR.Mileage was 34000 miles. Vehicle Identification Number (VIN):1G1YY12S945.

I HAVE A 2000 CHEVROLET CORVETTE AND A 2004 CHEVROLET COMMEMORATIVE EDITION CORVETTE. BOTH OF MY VETTES HAVE HAD A ROOF LEAK AND BOTH CARS HAVE THE FIXED ROOF. NEITHER VEHICLES HAVE EVER BEEN WRECKED. IT HAS CAUSED MILDEW ON THE HEADLINER AS WELL AS NUMEROUS PROBLEMS WITH WIRING IN THE CAR DUE TO THE LEAK. BECAUSE MY 2000 CORVETTE HAD NO WARRANTY WE FIXED THE PROBLEM OURSELVES, BUT MY 2004 CORVETTE STILL IS HAVING A PROBLEM. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP BECAUSE IT IS UNDER WARRANTY BUT THE WARRANTY WOULD NOT COVER THE ROOF LEAK. I WAS WONDERING IF THERE HAVE BEEN OTHER PEOPLE HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM. IT SEEMS TO COINCIDENTAL TO HAVE THE PROBLEM ON TWO CORVETTES. *TR.Chevrolet Corvette 2004 problem was reported in LEXINGTON, SC. Vehicle was not using ANTI-LOCK BRAKES.

PURCHASED IN SEPT 2008 WITH 5500 MILES FROM THE ORIGINAL SELLING DEALERSHIP. NOW WITH APPROX 9800-10,000 MILES A FUEL LEAK HAS DEVELOPED WHEN FUELING THE CAR UP. AT APPROX +1/2-3/4 TANK FUEL SPILLS OUT UNDER THE CAR ON THE DRIVERS SIDE. THIS YEAR SAW AN INSTALLATION OF A NEW STAINLESS FUEL CROSSOVER LINE BETWEEN THE TANKS. THEY HAVE BEEN NOTORIOUS FOR LEAKAGE ALONG WITH THE DRIVER'S SIDE TANK IN THE AREA WHERE THE CROSSOVER LINE COUPLES TO THE TANK. ALONG WITH WHAT I CONSIDER A MAJOR SAFETY RISK DUE TO THE POSSIBILITY OF FIRE, (THE EXHAUST AND FUEL TANK ARE IN VERY CLOSE PROXIMITY) THIS ALSO MUST BE AN EPA/EMISSION VIOLATION FROM ESCAPING FUMES, VAPORS AND FUEL. THIS VEHICLE HAS BEEN PAINSTAKINGLY MAINTAINED AND IS IN AS NEW CONDITION (10,000 MILES) THIS IS A DEFECT FROM GM AND DUE TO THE INHERENT POSSIBILITY OF LOSS OF LIFE AND/OR PROPERTY DAMAGE SHOULD BE RECALLED OR AT LEAST REPAIRED BY AN AUTHORIZED GM DEALERSHIP. THIS VEHICLE DOES HAVE A 80,000 MILE EMISSION WARRANTY UNDER WHICH THIS FALLS. *TR.Mileage was 10000 miles. Vehicle Identification Number (VIN):1G1YY12S945.

CHEVROLET CORVETTE 2004 car safety problem was reported on Apr 02, 2010.CHEVROLET CORVETTE 2004, manufactured by GENERAL MOTORS CORP. had a problem with FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE . OUR 2004 CORVETTE WITH 27,630 MILES SUDDENLY BEGAN LEAKING GAS FUMES SO SEVERELY IN OUR GARAGE THAT WE WERE CONCERNED WE COULD HAVE AN EXPLOSION. WE ALSO COULD NOT SLEEP IN OUR BEDROOM AT THE OPPOSITE END OF OUR HOUSE DUE TO THE GAS FUMES. WE HAD NOT HIT ANYTHING OR HAD ANYTHING UNUSUAL HAPPEN TO OUR VEHICLE AND WE HAD A GM DEALER IN CHANDLER, AZ DETERMINE THERE WAS NO DAMAGE TO THE UNDERCARRIAGE OF THE CAR. THE DEALER DETERMINED THAT THE DRIVER'S SIDE GAS TANK HAD CRACKED NEAR THE TOP OF THE TANK. WE CONTACTED GM CUSTOMER SUPPORT AND AFTER WE WAITED A WEEK, WITH THE CAR AT THE DEALER'S LOT, GM DETERMINED THEY WOULD DO NOTHING! THEY REFUSED TO EITHER RECALL THE CORVETTE, ADMIT THERE IS A DEFECT IN THEIR GAS TANKS OR ASSIST FINANCIALLY IN REPLACING THE GAS TANK. WE THEN HAD THE GM DEALER REPLACE THE TANK AT A COST OF $1,991. THIS PRICE IS AFTER THE DEALER REDUCED THE COST BY GIVING US A 10% GOODWILL PRICE REDUCTION. DUE TO THE SERIOUS SAFETY DEFECT IN GM'S GAS TANK AND CROSSOVER SYSTEM, WE BELIEVE GM SHOULD IMMEDIATELY RECALL THE 2004 CORVETTES AS VARIOUS OTHER OWNERS HAVE REPORTED THAT THEIR DRIVER SIDE GAS TANK HAS CRACKED AND LEAKED FUEL AND GAS FUMES. THIS IS A SAFETY RECALL AND DEFINITE EPA ISSUE. THE VEHICLE AND OUR GARAGE CERTAINLY COULD HAVE EXPLODED AND THE VEHICLE WAS UNDRIVEABLE WHILE LEAKING FUMES. IT CERTAINLY COULD NOT HAVE PASSED AN EMISSIONS TEST. IS GM WAITING FOR AN EXPLOSION BEFORE THEY ACT? *TR.Mileage was 27630 miles. Vehicle Identification Number (VIN):1G1YY22G045.

I BOUGHT THE 2004 VETTE COUPE ON 5-29-10 FROM A LOCAL DEALER. THE CAR SEEMED CLEAN. I HAVE PUT A LITTLE OVER 1,000 EASY MILES ON THE CAR IN 9 WEEKS. I STARTED TO NOTICE A SMELL COMING FROM THE CAR WHEN I WOULD GET HOME AND BEGAN TO RUN FANS TO GET IT OUT OF THE GARAGE. I FINALLY TOOK IT TO A LOCAL CADILLAC DEALER SINCE I WAS NOT SURE I COULD TRUST THE DEALER THAT SOLD ME THIS CAR WITH A PROBLEM AND THEY FOUND A GAS LEAK AT THE JOINT WHERE THE TUBE THAT CONNECTS THE TWO TANKS COMES OUT OF THE RIGHT TANK. IT ONLY DRIPS WHEN IT HAS BEEN DRIVEN BUT IS NOW QUITE BAD. I HAVE NOT DARED DRIVE IT FOR THE LAST WEEK. IT HAS NOT BEEN WORKED ON BECAUSE I WAS ADVISED TO CALL GM TO SEE IF THEY COULD HELP OUT ON THIS COSTLY REPAIR. I HAVE NOT HEARD BACK FROM THEM AS YET. THE GM REP DID ASK ME TO TAKE IT BACK TO THE ORIGINAL SELLER FOR ANOTHER INSPECTION EVEN THOUGH ANOTHER DIVISION OF THEIR COMPANY HAS ALREADY IDENTIFIED THE PROBLEM AND EVEN SHOWED ME THE LEAKING LOCATION. THIS IS A VERY DANGEROUS SITUATION AS GAS NOW DRIPS ON THE GROUND IN FRONT OF THE RIGHT REAR TIRE. ANY THING YOU CAN DO TO SEE TO IT THAT THIS SITUATION IS CORRECTED QUICKLY MAY SAVE SOMEONE'S LIFE. I CONSIDER MYSELF FORTUNATE TO HAVE FOUND OUT WHAT WAS WRONG WITHOUT BEING HURT OR KILLED. *TR.Mileage was 40600 miles. Vehicle Identification Number (VIN):1G1YY22G545.

CHEVROLET CORVETTE 2004 car safety problem was reported on Aug 14, 2004.CHEVROLET CORVETTE 2004, manufactured by GENERAL MOTORS CORP. had a problem with FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE . I OWN A 2004 CORVETTE AND AM VERY CONCERNED ABOUT THE MANY REPORTS OF A MFG. DEFECT IN THE FUEL TANK CROSSOVER QUICK CONNECT, CAUSING A FUEL LEAK AND POTENTIAL FIRE, LOSS OF LIFE. "THE CROSSOVER QUICK CONNECT IS AN INJECTION MOLDED COMPONENT MOLDED AT VIKING PLASTICS USING A MATERIAL PROVIDED BY POLYONE CORP. DURING THE COMPOUNDING PROCESS AT POLYONE CORP. ON SEPTEMBER 30, 2003, POLYONE CORP. MIS-PROCESSED A 3,000 POUND BATCH OF THE CROSSOVER QUICK CONNECT MATERIAL WHICH SIGNIFICANTLY DEGRADED THE MOLECULAR WEIGHT OF THE GLASS FILLED OLEFIN MATERIAL AND ULTIMATELY THE FRACTURE TOUGHNESS OF THE QUICK CONNECT." "POLYONE ALSO KNOWINGLY REPORTED INCORRECT PELLET SIZE ON THE MATERIAL CERTS." SUSPECT THAT COMPONENTS THAT SHOULD HAVE BEEN SCRAPPED, WERE RE-INTRODUCED INTO PRODUCTION ON AT LEAST TWO OTHER OCCASIONS." THIS IS FROM A GM LETTER FROM TERRY M. STONE TO DAVE REEK ON 10/08//2004 SUBJECT: FUEL LEAKS-ROOT CAUSE. ALSO IN ANOTHER LETTER PE 10-015 N100150 RESPONSE DATED JUNE 30, 2010 ON PAGE 13: "FUEL TANKS WITH SUSPECT QUICK CONNECTORS USING MATERIAL COMPOUNDED ON SEPTEMBER 30, 2003 AND JANUARY 7, 2004 WERE INSTALLED IN VEHICLES PRODUCED FROM APPROXIMATELY OCTOBER 22, 2003 THROUGH MARCH 19, 2004." "GM DOES NOT BELIEVE THAT THE ALLEGED DEFECT REPRESENTS AN UNREASONABLE RISK TO VEHICLE SAFETY." I STRONGLY DISAGREE WITH GM'S STATEMENT. ANY FUEL LEAK CAUSED BY A MFG. DEFECT POSES A MAJOR RISK TO VEHICLE SAFETY DUE TO THE POTENTIAL OF FIRE FROM LEAKING GAS. ONCE AGAIN, THERE HAVE BEEN MANY REPORTS OF THIS DEFECT AND I AM VERY CONCERNED THAT MY CAR COULD HAVE A DEFECTIVE GAS TANK WHICH SHOULD BE REPLACED BY GM IF A LEAK OCCURS. I ENCOURAGE THE NHTSA TO ISSUE AN IMMEDIATE RECALL OF THESE DEFECTIVE TANKS ON 2003/2004 CORVETTES/CADILLAC XLR VEHICLES BEFORE THERE IS A FIRE OR LOSS OF LIFE.

CHEVROLET CORVETTE 2004 car safety problem was reported on Aug 12, 2010.CHEVROLET CORVETTE 2004, manufactured by GENERAL MOTORS CORP. had a problem with FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE . ON THURSDAY, AUG. 12, 2010, I STOPPED BY AT A GAS STATION TO FILL UP MY GAS TANK ON MY 2004 CHEVROLET CORVETTE COUPE. AFTER TRAVELING APPROXIMATELY 4 MILES FROM THE GAS STATION, I NOTICED A GAS LEAK UNDERNEATH COMING FROM THE LEFT DRIVER'S SIDE NEAR THE GAS TANK AREA. AFTER DISCOVERING THE PROBLEM, I IMMEDIATELY DROVE THE CAR TO A CHEVROLET SERVICE DEALERSHIP. AFTER HAVING A CERTIFIED GM MECHANIC LOOKING AT THE PROBLEM, THEY DISCOVERED IS WAS A DEFECTIVE TANK CONNECTOR (CROSSOVER PIPE) THAT CRACKS UNDER STRESS. WHAT NEEDED TO BE REPLACED WAS THE O-RING SEALS AND CONNECTOR PIPE ($250). THE LABOR CHARGE FOR REPLACING THESE PARTS ON A 2004 CORVETTE WAS $845. IT IS ALSO MY UNDERSTANDING THAT IN 2003 TO 2004, GM HAD THESE CROSSOVER PIPES CHANGED FROM A RUBBER TO A STEEL MATERIAL BECAUSE OF GAS AND HIGHWAY EMISSIONS. I WOULD LIKE TO MAKE STATEMENT TO EVERY OWNER OF 2004 CORVETTE, THAT THERE IS IN FACT A DEFECTIVE CROSSOVER PIPE THAT WILL LEAK GASOLINE AND WILL EVENTUALLY CAUSE A FIRE HAZARD IF IT IS NOT REPLACED. *TR.Mileage was 9450 miles.
