This page combines three types of NHTSA data: recall campaigns (official manufacturer or government actions), owner complaints (unverified consumer reports), and crash test ratings (where available). A vehicle with many complaints is not necessarily less reliable — complaint volume correlates with sales volume and vehicle age. Recalls indicate identified defects, not overall quality.

General Motors LLC (GM) is recalling certain model year 2014-2016 Buick Lacrosse and Chevrolet Spark EV, Caprice PPV and SS vehicles, 2014-2017 Buick Encore and Chevrolet Corvette, Silverado 1500 and GMC Sierra 1500 vehicles, 2015-2016 Cadillac Escalade and Escalade ESV, Chevrolet Tahoe, Trax, Suburban and Silverado 2500 and 3500 and GMC Yukon and Yukon XL vehicles, and 2015-2017 GMC Sierra HD 2500 and 3500 vehicles. 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.
Remedy Status
GM will notify owners, and dealers will reflash the SDM software. Vehicles that have had a previous air bag deployment will have the SDM replaced. These repairs will be performed free of charge. The recall began on August 4, 2017. Owners may contact Buick customer service at 1-800-521-7300, Cadillac customer service at 1-800-458-8006, Chevrolet customer service at 1-800-222-1020, or GMC customer service at 1-800-462-8782.

Driving down interstate at 74 MPH when engine acted like it wasn't accelerating and I was able to get off on an exit when car died had to have it towed to a chevrolet dealership. Engine wouldn't turn over at all. So Chevrolet did a visual inspection and said a valve spring on #8 cylinder had broke and they needed to tear into it further. So for another $1160.00 they would tear the engine down further to see what damage had been done. Chevrolet never notified me that they had a TSB on valve spring issue. Now my engine is no good. General Motors will give no assistance on repair. My engine shut down at 74 mph no longer running on an interstate.
When C7 Stingray Corvette in the garage with the door closed, there is a strong smell of fuel coming from the vehicle, this problem started around July, 2025.... I have owed the vehicle for 3 years never a problem until now.
The contact owns a 2015 Chevrolet Corvette. The contact stated that the vehicle experienced severe shuddering and vibration while accelerating from a stationary position and while driving at slower speeds. The cause of the failure has not yet been determined. The manufacturer and local dealer were notified of the failure, but no assistance was offered. The contact was provided with information of a TSB related to the failure. No further information was available. The failure mileage was 13,000.
The factory supplied OEM GM wheels on this vehicle are cracking in the rims. This is not due to striking any road hazards whatsoever, there is simply a manufacturing defect within the wheel itself. My vehicle is a 2015, but only has 23000 miles on it. My rear left tire developed an air leak which was the initial hint that something was wrong. The crack was confirmed as the cause by my auto shop. I had this repaired via a weld, but the future structural soundness of the wheel is suspect. The shop has repaired many Corvette wheels like mine and most have come back again for the same problem. I had the other wheels inspected and found out the left front wheel is cracked as well. I am replacing the wheels with mono block forged wheels from an aftermarket supplier at my own expense due to having no confidence in the GM wheels. A wheel coming apart at high speed is an obvious safety hazard to myself and others on the road. GM is shirking any responsibility for this manufacturing defect. There are thousands of threads about this issue all over the Corvette forums. It is shameful that a vehicle that costs over six figures should have this issue. I have never had this sort of problem with any other vehicle I have ever owned throughout the decades, not even entry level vehicles. This really should be a safety recall.
Torque converter shudder and noise (definitely and issue related transmission). Around 1,500 RPM the vehicle starts to experience the shudder, shaking, and noise. Additionally there is a feeling of a surge in power, like if the vehicle shifts to an upper gear un intentionally, the vehicle launches forward occasionally (lurching forward). There is absolutely no issue while the vehicle idles, not at low or high RPM. The issue only occurs while the vehicle is in motion and at around 1,500 RPM. Using a V4 to V8 delete (Range Technology RA003B AFM/DFM Disabler) helps the issue significantly but it's still an issue. If that disabler is removed the issue is extremely pronounced. I purchased this vehicle as a used vehicle. I wouldn't have purchased the vehicle if I had the slightest idea of such a major issue with the vehicle.
I currently have a cracked but now welded rim that is off my 2015 Z06 Corvette. This rim is cracked due to a manufacture defect. This is now a known issue and yet to be resolved but this is definitely a safety issue when driving down the road.
There is a strong gas smell when my vehicle is parked in the home garage. The smell is very strong on the rear tire area on the driver's side of the vehicle. I contacted Gunn Chevrolet and will drop the car off 8 September 2023. There are no warning lights for this issue on the vehicle. There are several bulletins on gas leaks on C7 corvettes. Here is one bulletin: [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6
I own a 2015 Corvette Z06 and I had new tires put on last week and the shop found a crack in the rear passenger side wheel. I had to buy a replacement wheel before i could drive it again, since it could have lost air in the tire at any time, which is not safe. This is a common problem with this vechicle.
There has been a lawsuit in reference to the lifters in alot of GM cars. Now my 2015 corvette has the same issue. The bad lifter.
Infotainment screen intermittanly flickers or goes black during the backing of the vehicle. Rear backup camera shows object on screen when in reverse, then flickers or goes black. Cannot see blind spot with rear or side mirrors, such as children on sidewalk directly behind the vehicle where not in view of side mirrors and too low to see in the rear view. Seems to be a KNOWN problem with Chevy Corvette's and the problem with screen flickering or black out.
Driver display not working. (cable issue) Known issue with the c7 corvette. Can't see navigation, radio display, backup camera display and car settings. started out intermittant then permanent.
Chevy C7 corvettes have an issue with the center screen that project he backup camera. Due to the screen retracts, the cabling wears out and causes the camera to flicker or go blank. It seems the part to repair has been discontinued. This represents a safety hazard for all C7 corvettes since the part is label discontinued and the camera is much needed to back to car up safely without causing injury or property damage.
The entire dash went dark, there was no display of the odometer, symbols for system IE lights, oil pressure, tachometer, and no display on the screen where the radio or navigation selections are made. This began upon car being started. Turning off engine and restarting did not resolve. Car was drivable but not safely as speed could not be monitored.
I have a 2015 z51 corvette and my windshield has a crack in it.I called Chevrolet and they said never heard that before.I have seen at least a hundred different people talking about the same incident.I feel GM should be having a recall for safety reasons.It is not a stone chip it is a crack from the top on the inside. I feel this is very unsafe and GM is just not addressing the he problem.Thank you for your time. [XXX]. INFORMATION Redacted PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6).
The transmission flutters when shifting on my 2015 Corvette. A potential catastrophic failure could cause a fire from transmission fluid hitting the hot exhaust. General Motors is aware of the issue and has issued a TSB. I believe a potential fire and or collision exists if transmission fluid spills on the pavement. transmission fluid could cause spinouts of vehicles on road behind a car with failure. My vehicle has been experiencing this for the last couple months. Two different dealerships offer to change the fluid in the transmission but no guarantee the internal components have sustained damage.
The computer isn't allowing me to check off the other issues. The brakes were the other thing that couldn't be checked off. The vehicle went off the road and the brakes locked and now the vehicle is totaled. Had I been notified about these recalls this would not have happened.
2015 CHEVROLET CORVETTER. CONSUMER WRITES IN REGARDS TO STRESS CRACKS IN WINDSHIELD.
A SMALL CRACK DEVELOPED ON THE INSIDE RIM OF ONE OF MY REAR WHEELS AS I WAS DRIVING ON CITY STREETS AND AN INTERSTATE HIGHWAY. I NOTICED THE PROBLEM WHEN "LOW TIRE PRESSURE" CAME UP ON MY SCREEN. . I WAS 500 MILES FROM HOME WHEN I NOTICED THAT THE TIRE WAS LEAKING. I WENT TO A LOCAL TIRE DEALER. HE DISCOVERED THE CRACK AND SAID THAT IT WOULD TAKE ABOUT 5 DAYS TO GET A REPLACEMENT. I NEEDED TO GET HOME SO HE PUT SOME STICKY TIRE GOO ON THE OUTSIDE OF THE CRACK AND INFLATED THE TIRE TO 50 PSI. AFTER ABOUT 400 MILES ON MY TRIP HOME, THE PRESSURE WAS ABOUT 24 PSI. I INFLATED IT BACK TO 45 PSI AND MADE IT HOME SAFELY.
Bad valve springs across many GM vehicles. I am not the only one that has had broken valve springs. I am well under the miles for this issue to occur.
The contact owns a 2015 Chevrolet Corvette. The contact stated that he noticed a crack at the top of the front driver’s side windshield. The contact then stated that over time the crack expanded with several other cracks being formed on the passenger’s side of the windshield. The manufacture was notified of the issue and informed the contact that the vehicle was out of warranty. The manufacturer suggested that the vehicle be taken to the dealer to be diagnosed. The vehicle was taken to the dealer where the failure could not be duplicated. Additionally, the contact stated that while driving, he heard a crackling sound on the passenger’s side of the windshield while driving over bumps in the roadway. The manufacturer was notified a second time of the failure and the contact was referred to the NHTSA Hotline. The failure mileage was approximately 24,000.
