While being previously remedied for recall 16V-651, the affected vehicles may not have received the complete software update necessary to remedy the recall condition. Without the update, certain driving conditions may cause the air bag sensing and diagnostic module (SDM) software to activate a diagnostic test. During this test, deployment of the frontal air bags and the seat belt pretensioners would not occur in the event of a crash.

I went to the Chevy Dealer for service and to investigate a tire that keeps losing air. The dealership advised that the 2 rear wheels both have cracks that are consistent with a known problem in this model vehicle. They also documented that the two front wheels have bends also associated with a known defect in this model vehicle.

Multiple Wheels (9) have been replaced and multiple tires. Have had to repair each of these wheels upwards of 20+ times and it’s not allowed legally after 3 cracks per wheel. Safety issue as tires would blow out or go flat in short time. Yes, been inspected multiple times by dealers, GM and told not covered under any warranty. One incident, GM agreed to replace the 2 rear wheels at 50% retail!

Cracked (chrome) wheels on 2017 Corvette Grand Sport at 30228 miles. The tire icon appeared on the driver information display. Passenger side rear tire. After inflating the tire I took it to my dealer, Jorns Chevrolet where I purchased it brand new. Jorns is a leading Corvette dealer in Wisconsin. The dealer actually had a set of after market replacement wheels on display in the showroom. The technician removed the wheel and pointed out a large crack causing the slow leak. Not wanting to pay an exorbitant amount for one wheel and gamble on the other three I decided to replace all four with forged aftermarket wheels. Now, the technician discovered a crack in the driver side rear wheel also. Jorns explained that they have replaced wheels, with similar problems, on forty other Corvettes! Appealing to GM was a futile waste of time. GM skillfully crafted a policy to claim any sort of compensation virtually impossible. Initial contact requires the owner to deal with some appointed law firm and comply with their front line screening. IF you succeed with that, mountains of documentation are required. Very disappointing considering, the frequency of failures and owners history with a known problem with a premium brand model.

Description: On June 23, 2025, I was involved in a traffic collision in Las Vegas, Nevada. According to the police report, another driver failed to yield while exiting a private driveway and struck the front of my vehicle while I was stopped in the center turn lane preparing to turn left. As the vehicle entered my lane, I pressed the horn continuously in an attempt to alert the driver. My right hand was positioned on the horn pad in the center of the steering wheel. At the moment of impact, the driver airbag deployed while my hand remained on the horn pad. I immediately experienced severe pain in my right wrist. Medical evaluation confirmed fractures of the distal radius and ulna requiring surgical fixation with plates and screws. My purpose in submitting this report is to document a potential safety concern involving the interaction between horn activation and airbag deployment. Activating the horn during an imminent collision may be a foreseeable defensive maneuver, which could place the driver’s hand directly over the airbag module at the moment of deployment. I respectfully submit this information for safety review in case similar incidents have been reported.
