Re: URGENT SAFETY CONCERN – 2026 Chevrolet Corvette Z06 NHTSA Campaign No.: 25V536 GM Recall No.: N252514930 Dear NHTSA Office of Defects Investigation, I am writing to provide additional information regarding my 2026 Chevrolet Corvette Z06 and to respectfully request an urgent investigation into whether my vehicle should have been included in NHTSA Campaign No. 25V536 / GM Recall No. N252514930. My concern is extremely serious because my vehicle is experiencing a gasoline-related condition that appears consistent with the safety hazard identified in this recall. According to NHTSA's official recall documentation, certain 2023–2026 Chevrolet Corvette vehicles equipped with the left-side radiator/fan combination may allow excess gasoline spilled during refueling to enter the fuel-filler pocket and reach an ignition source, increasing the risk of a vehicle fire. The recall remedy includes installation of an insert/protective shield intended to divert spilled gasoline away from surfaces behind the quarter panel. General Motors' investigation identified multiple fire incidents involving Corvettes equipped with the relevant radiator/fan configuration, including customer-owned vehicles and a GM development vehicle. GM also conducted physical testing that reproduced fuel ignition under simulated spill conditions. My 2026 Corvette Z06 is experiencing a strong gasoline/fuel odor, including fumes noticeable inside the passenger compartment, and I am deeply concerned that my vehicle may have the same underlying fuel-related safety condition addressed by this recall. Most importantly, my vehicle appears to lack the protective safety shield that was established as the recall remedy. For this reason, I respectfully ask NHTSA not to rely solely upon why this car was sold when there is no protective safety sheild.

The car will randomly start shuttering and powering down without warning. Every light imaginable on the dash is illuminated along with various pop up warnings on the DIC. When this occurs, the car will not move under its own power and it loses its ability to brake entirely. I was in the middle of an intersection this last time, thankfully a police officer was near and directed traffic around me until i was able to get the car taken to the nearest dealership. This is the third time I've had this happen, I had it looked at and they replaced an electric brake module etc but that clearly didn't work. I've read of a few other similar incidents on various forums. There aren't a lot of these cars produced so far but if there's cases already popping up, something isn't right.

I am writing regarding my 2026 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray 1LT and a very serious safety incident that occurred while driving on the Garden State Parkway. While driving at highway speed under normal conditions, my Corvette suddenly jerked and completely shut off without warning. The vehicle immediately lost power and became undrivable. Because there was no emergency shoulder available, I had no safe place to pull over. I was forced to coast for approximately one to two miles at very low speed while surrounded by fast moving traffic. This created an extremely dangerous situation, and I narrowly avoided multiple collisions before I was finally able to reach the side of an exit ramp. After stopping, I exited the vehicle and noticed smoke coming from the engine compartment. When I looked underneath the vehicle, there was a large pool of engine oil leaking onto the ground, and I believe I also saw oil on the side of the engine. The car had to be towed, and I was stranded on the side of the highway for hours. I also had to pay around $750 in towing expenses that I had to pay out of pocket. This incident was especially concerning because the vehicle has had multiple problems since I purchased it. These include a bracket rubbing against other components and causing damage, the air conditioning not functioning properly, and an unusually loud belt noise while driving. I purchased this vehicle brand new with the expectation that it would be reliable and safe. Instead, I have experienced repeated issues, culminating in an incident that placed my safety at high risk. I am requesting that General Motors and the dealership thoroughly investigate this vehicle and provide an appropriate resolution. Given the repeated defects and the severity of this highway failure, I am requesting an exchange for another new Corvette. I have several friends who own 2025 and earlier Corvette models and have not experienced these types of issues, which further reinforces my concerns.
