Overwhelming fuel odors.. At first I assumed it might be a bad fuel cap. Replaces with OEM fuel cap and smell if still very much present.. 1 thing to note.. Smell is present only when fuel tank is filled past half a tank. When I only put about 5-6 gallons from empty; there is no smell or odor.. Have tried it on several occasions and has proven positive on each fill up over 6 gallons..
I have a 2010 Chevy corvette base model with a gas leak it was parked in my garage for a two weeks . I went and put gas and noticed a strong smell of gas. I drove the car for a while and put it back in the garage the gas smell got worse I took it to the shop they said that the fuel pump is leaking wanting to charge me 2000 to fix it.
Strong fuel smell when tank is over 1/2 full. Fuel leak on driver side. Strong odor of gasoline by driver side rear wheel well
Fuel / gas smell ...no leaks detected. Most apparent when vehicle is stationary or garaged. Vehichle can not be garaged due to excessive gas smell and possible explosion caused by gas vapors coming from vehicle.
A strong smell of fuel in the cockpit. While there is no visible puddle of fuel on my garage floor, the fuel odor is very strong and I am obliged to keep my garage door open or the fuel smell enters into the house. I took it to the service dept of where I purchased the vehicle (carmax) and was informed today that the leak is on the top of the left fuel tank and that to access it, it would be necessary to remove the transmission. I was also informed that since the job was a "big one" carmax would make arrangements to have my car brought to a Chevrolet dealership. I was also told that my car max service warranty might not cover the repairs done outside their shop. I am bringing this to your attention in hopes that due to the fire danger involved with leaking fuel general motors will is
Seems to be a common issue and GM has a tsb for it but they only covered the repare for 10 years and 120k I am at 11 with 70k miles. The fuel is leaking from the top of the tank and could cause a fire.
The fuel tank is leaking at the pump due to defective plastic. There should be a lot of reports of this happening on this vehicle and it is more dangerous than any other defect I have ever heard of.
Have a strong odor of gasoline coming from vehicle parked in garage. Have not noticed any gasoline in the garage floor, only the strong odor.
My 2010 Chevrolett Grand Sport has developed a very strong odor of gasoline. Both when parked in garage and while driving. It’s obviously leaking gasoline somewhere which could result in a fire or death.
After filling up my tank, I smell a strong gas smell primarily from the left rear (where I fill up) side of the car. It fills my garage with strong fumes and I don't feel save starting it, much less driving it. I don't smell anything in the cabin, only when it's in the garage. Also leads me to believe I'm loosing gas and fuel economy so that's a drag. I've looked at possible causes, and it could be many different things so it's currently uknown as far as what part is exactly wrong. I smell the fumes when the car is stationary.
Strong odor / smell of fuel.. Noticed after filling fuel tank and stationed vehicle in enclosed garage..
I have a 2010 corvette grand sport with 46000 miles that has strong gas fumes coming from the drivers side by the gas tank while parked in the garage. Even after sitting for 2 days the gas smell didn't go away. I took the car into Chevrolet and they replaced the gas tank and the fuel pump on the drivers side because it was leaking. The repair cost 2900.00. I asked the service rep at Chevrolet if the new gas tank design flaw had been fixed and he replied that he didn't know. I also had a 2006 corvette with the same problem so I have to assume it hasn't been fixed. Chevrolet hasn't fixed the problem and I'm afraid it will keep happening and my house or car will catch fire and someone may get hurt. There needs to be a recall and we should get reimbursed.
Very strong fuel vapor order when parkedp
airbags 2 complaints shown
Air bag light comes on and off. Seems to me its could be something electrical, cause it doesn't stay on all the time. Seems like this should be a safety recall but I'm the 4th owner of this corvette so dont know if there was a recall and it never got fixed. Thanks. It comes on and no set pattern for the air bag light to come on. Sometimes it doesn't come on for a week or two and sometimes it stays on.
Airbag light intermittently lights, when I havent adjusted the seats and not speeding. Seems to be a common occurence with corvette owners. Saw it a few times before but it stopped before I took it into the dealers for service.
engine 1 complaint shown
At 85,000 miles the timing chain triggered the check engine light to come on. At 100,037 miles the engine was burning oil. Three mechanics confirmed that the engine needed to be replaced. An estimated cost of $8,000 - $12,000.
lighting 1 complaint shown
In damp weather, the drivers side headlight fogged over from condensation inside lens and the drivers side low beam headlight was observed to be not working. Passenger side headlight had no condensation and working low beam. *tr both high beams were then turned on and observed to be working. Conditions dried later in the day and headlights were observed to be working. Driver side headlamp condensation dried in 24 hours. Over the prior six months, condensation has been occasionally observed inside the drivers side headlamp but the low beam had not previously failed to light. Chevrolet dealer ( robert's Chevrolet in hicksville ny ) said they would not accept the car for service unless this intermittent problem was present at check-in even though we have photographic documentatio
body 1 complaint shown
The driver door will not open using either the inside nor outside electronic button. Yes, there is a lever on the floor and one in the trunk. Both operate a cable to unlatch the door. The door jam release latch fails at an alarming rate. Salvage yards, ebay, amazon etc have run out of the parts forcing a purchase from gm. Corvette forums and youtube videos abound with talk of replacing these at a cost of $400 at the dealer!! Being able to reach the trunk release or even the floor release in the event of an accident would often be difficult to impossible. Gm seems to see this as a money making proposition since the 215,125 cars produced with this feature were never fixed. Gm needs to do something about the expensive replacement cost of such a basic safety feature that fails so often.
