2013 Chevrolet Corvette owner complaints

There is a strong fuel smell in the cabin of my car and in my garage if the gas tank is above a half tank.

Very strong fuel smell from left rear wheel well. Goes away if tank is 1/2 full or less. Afraid to leave in garage overnight because fumes are so bad I'm worried about fire! Vehicle has not been in any accidents or abused.

There is a fuel odor in the cockpit and the exterior of the vehicle. The odor is heavier when the gas tank is over half full. The odor appears stronger when the vehicle is parked.

My car with only 17,000 is generating a very strong gas smell, which completely fills my garage. I've read old notices that preferred to this problem and saw there was many reports in the past from your organization about this problem, that now have all been pulled. As any Corvette forms on line reflects, as it is a continuous problem. I now am keeping mine outside, because of the strong odor. There isn't a gas leak per a Chevrolet dealer and I can't afford the $1,000 in additional labor, their estimate to attempt to figure out. Please assist us (the thousands of other owners effecting 2007 -in 2013). Please help thank you very much on advance, [XXX] INFORMATION Redacted PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6).

Strong gas smell when above half full. Tested many times and is likely related to gm special coverage adjustment 15682, which describes problem perfectly (fuel pump fitting cracks), a very expensive fix. Many others like this posted here. However, dealer says my VIN is not included in special adjustment even though it is within the described year range (2007-2013). This is not right. Please help gm realize they didn't get all vins included that need to be. I bought my car in may 2013, so unlikely it should be precluded.

Strong smell of gasoline coming from rear of car.

Strong fuel smell coming from left side of car. Fuel leaks from fitting at top of fuel pump assembly in left side tank. Many of us corvette forum owners have had this happen. There's even a you-tube video showing where the "crack" occurs. Not acceptable to have to repair this after only 3 years of ownership.

The vehicle fills my garage with strong gasoline vapors when enclosed. I have to leave it parked outside to clear the odor from my garage. There is a leak somewhere. I have been informed and subsequently read that it is a known problem by GM Chevrolet Corp. I cannot locate an issued recall for this widely known problem with C6 Corvettes

Car has a constant smell of gasoline coming from it, appears to be leaking from the top of the fuel tank located on the drivers side of the vehicle, then it runs down and fills the fuel tank mounting bracket, could possibly leak onto exhaust pipe causing fire underneath the vehicle.

Car smells like there is a gas leak. Car parked in garage. Dealer states no recalls!

Vehicle was parked in the garage. Very strong gasoline odor. Checked under vehicle, no evidence of any leaks. Checked gas cap, cap is secure. Odor seems to be stronger near right rear wheel well. Checked internet. Seems to be a fairly common problem related to fuel tank EVAP or crossover lines.have to park vehicle outdoors due to gas waterheater in garage. Is fuel system covered under emissions warranty? Vehicle mileage is 33k.

The car always has the smell of gasoline. When the fuel tank is filled, the smell is extremely strong both inside and outside.

Every time I fuel up I get a strong fuel smell inside my car and when I open my trunk.

I noticed a strong smell of gasoline in my garage and it was also inside the car. This is a well known issue that is the subject of a special service bulletin from gm, described as follows: 2007 - 2013 corvette: service bulletin: 15682 primary tank module flange fuel and vapor leaks special coverage adjustment 15682 primary tank module flange fuel and vapor leaks reference number: n150682 release date: july 2016 condition some 2007 to 2009 model year Cadillac xlr and 2007 to 2013 model year Chevrolet corvette vehicles may have a condition where a fuel odor is detected, fuel droplets appear below the left-hand fuel tank with fuel gauge level above 1/2, or a malfunction indicator lamp illuminates due to a leak path in the left-hand fuel pump module flange.

ABS light stays on. History: on 11/17/18 before driving my vehicle I had to adjust my driver's seat all the way back to accommodate my long legs after another person had previously moved the seat forward when they were sitting in the vehicle. When I started the vehicle the ABS light briefly flashed, then came on steady, then it after several minutes the light eventually went out while I was driving. The next time I started the car the ABS light came on, flashed briefly, then remained on steady. Now, each time the car is started/driven, the ABS light briefly flashes during start up and then always remains constantly on after that. The vehicle only has 19,000 miles on it.

Since ownership starting 09/28/12 I have had multiple incidents of the air bag light for the passenger side illuminate. It is intermittent and comes and goes randomly. I just got it back from the dealer after complaining about it and they said they couldn't do anything since there were no codes in the computer. I'm a member of the corvette forum and have seen numerous postings concerning this problem. It seems to be the connector under the drivers seat that is designed so it drags and catches on the carpet thus moving the connector and its wiring. The dealer made no attempt to contact Chevrolet technical assistance about this and just sent me on my way out the door. They did not attempt to check the wires under the seat when I asked about that. On one trip about a month ago I ha

1. Strong fuel smell when the car is parked in garage. Believe it is coming from top of driver's side fuel tank. Vapor is so strong I'm afraid it will explode. Doesn't matter if tank is full or empty. 2. Seat belt air bag warning light is on in the driver's cluster unit. Car only has 35,000 miles. Don't think this is safe. Will need it checked out ASAP at dealer.

My Corvette c6 model has had a longterm issue with the left fuel pump, which I was not made aware of by the local dealership servicing my vehicle or the manufacturer, General Motors. I recently discovered the fuel pump issue, which results in a significant fuel leak thru the bottom left side of the vehicle. GM and the dealership failed to notify me of this issue even though they issued a Special Bulletin that addresses the fuel pump issue and which advises dealerships to repair the vehicle at no cost to the owner - me. I have complained to General Motors and I'm currently awaiting their response to my complaint and request for assistance with the repairs. As of 9:00 am Pacific Time, December 9, 2024, I've received no response from GM. My concern and reason for this report is GM's failure
