NHTSA complaint 11656487. Filed by an owner and not verified by NHTSA or by us.

WHEELS

1 injured

From the day the vehicle was delivered, all four tires were losing air daily. No disclosure of punctures or defects was made by the dealership. After one week, a tire went flat and I purchased new replacement tires. Multiple shops, including Costco, refused to install the tires because they did not have equipment capable of working with carbon fiber wheels. A specialized exotic-car shop (Enzo Auto Center) attempted the installation. During the process, one of the carbon fiber wheels spontaneously ruptured/exploded, causing multiple fractures to the technician’s hand and arm. He required emergency medical treatment. After the incident, even an authorized Chevrolet dealership was unable to

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM

fire

On August 1st, my '24 Z06 unexpectedly caught fire after a short evening of driving — 7 miles to dinner, 7 miles to a store, then 2 miles to drop my wife off at the grocery store. I was heading to refuel when the fire started. The car was in Sport Mode, so the fans were running. Thankfully, we were able to put it out. GM sent three inspectors, including an independent expert who noted that most fire cases he sees result in the car being reduced to a blob. On August 28, Scott Bell (VP of Global Chevrolet) told our dealer he would expedite a replacement. We placed the order — but the following week, GM reversed course, claiming the fire was caused by "non-car material" and not their

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM

towed · 500 miles

The contact owns a 2024 Chevrolet Corvette. The contact stated that upon parking and turning off the vehicle, the contact noticed that the radio, the infotainment screen, and the instrument cluster had failed to turn off.

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
I live in Las Vegas, NV where temperatures outdoors frequently exceed 100 degrees F in the summer, and in properly permitted garages without air conditioning, it gets very hot. I own a 2024 Chevrolet Corvette Z06. When it is hot out and the vehicle's tank is properly filled before parking in a properly permitted garage that meets building code, the car is unable to vent heat from the engine, which causes thermal expansion in the fuel tank and the car to vent an excessive amount of fuel vapor into the space. My vehicle has vented enough fuel vapor to cause health and fire hazards and trigger alerts of fuel vapor being over 5,000 ppm in the air in my garage. GM claims this is 'normal

STRUCTURE:BODY
The electronically-activated hood release, latching mechanism on my 2024 Chevrolet Corvette VIN 1G1YA2D42R5116964 has been repeatedly malfunctioning since August, 2025. The hood either pops open of its own accord or it will not close securely, leaving the occupants of the vehicle to speculate if the hood will spontaneously open blinding the driver in traffic.

Where these numbers come from

A complaint is one owner's account and has not been verified by NHTSA or by us. A vehicle with more complaints is not necessarily worse: models that sold in larger numbers collect more of them. How this is counted.
