2002 Chevrolet Corvette

The ignition key started the car but the car continued to stall out when the clutch was released failing to propel the car leaving me stranded with a running(ideling) but non functional vehicle.I could not move the vehicle and it was subject to traffic crash. I need to have the vehicle retrieved by the dealer for repait. It is non-operable. There weree no warnings to me on the vehicle that the p roblem existed

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2002 CHEVROLET CORVETTE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE SERVICE COLUMN LOCK WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED. THE VIN WAS NOT INCLUDED IN NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 04V060000 (STEERING); HOWEVER, THE CONTACT EXPERIENCED A FAILURE RELATED TO THE RECALL. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE TO DETERMINE IF A DEALER COULD REPAIR THE VEHICLE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 30,000. UPDATED 07/18/17*LJ THE CONSUMER SAID THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED BUT THE FAILURE RECURRED. UPDATED 08/15/2017*JS

1998-2004 CORVETTE WOULD GET THE INFAMOUS "REDUCED ENGINE POWER", "TRACTION CONTROL FAILURE" AND A HOST OF RANDOM FAILURE CODES. STILL GETTING THE RANDOM DTC FAILURE CODES. DIRECTIONAL SIGNALS AND HAZARD LIGHTS STOPPED WORKING INTERMITTENTLY WHILE DRIVING WHICH IS VERY DANGEROUS. I HAVE READ SO MANY ARTICLES ON THE INTERNET AND IT SEEMS THAT A LOT OF OWNERS ARE EXPERIENCED SIMILAR FAILURES. THIS CAR IS DANGEROUS AND NOT WROTE WORTHY BECAUSE OF ALL THE ELECTRICAL PROBLEMS. AT ONE POINT WHILE DRIVING THE CAR ALMOST STOPPED BECAUSE OF SOME ELECTRICAL FAILURE. THE GOVERNMENT SHOULD LOOK INTO THIS SITUATION WITH CHEVROLET CORVETTE'S FROM 1998 THROUGH 2004 BECAUSE AFTER DOING A LOT OF RESEARCH ON THE INTERNET I SEE A LOT OF COMPLAINTS. WHY HASN'T THIS BEEN A MAJOR RECALL FOR GENERAL MOTORS? ONGOING PROBLEM AND THE DEALER HAS NO ANSWERS FOR A RESOLUTION. ALSO FOUND OUT THE FACTORY WHEELS ARE CRACKING ON THE INSIDE WHICH IS VERY UNSAFE TO DRIVE. I FOUND THIS OUT WHEN I HAD NEW ORIGINAL STYLE TIRES PUT ON THE CAR. GENERAL MOTORS SHOULD RECALL AND REPAIR ALL THESE ISSUES THAT MANY CORVETTE OWNERS ARE EXPERIENCING. *TR

SERVICE COLUMN LOCK ERROR MESSAGE WAS DISPLAYED AND THE STEERING COLUMN WAS LOCKED AND I WAS ABLE TO DRIVE THE CAR ABOUT 1 CAR LENGTH BEFORE I REALIZED THAT I HAD NO STEERING ABILITY. CONTACTED GM CUSTOMER SERVICE AND THEY SAID THAT THE CAR WAS RECALLED AND SERVICED FOR THIS CONDITION AND THAT THEY ARE ONLY RESPONSIBLE FOR ONE REPAIR OF THIS PROBLEM. *TR

THE BLINKERS STOP WORKING SOMETIMES WHILE DRIVING. THE ABS LIGHTS COMES ON STABILITY CONTROL. HEADLIGHTS TURN OFF AND ON WHILE AUTOMATIC TWILIGHT IS ON. THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM SEEMS TO HAVE PROBLEMS. THE BRAKES, BLINKERS AND GAUGES MALFUNCTION. I'VE LOOKED ON THE INTERNET AND IT SEEMS A LOT OF CORVETTE OWNERS FROM MODEL YEAR 1997-2004 ARE EXPERIENCING THE SAME PROLEMS. THE ALARM SYSTEM ALSO FAILS. I FIND THIS TO BE DANGEROUS PROBLEM WHILE DRIVING WHEN THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM FAILS TO OPERATE. *TR

I OWN A 2002 CHEVROLET CORVETTE AND HAVE AN ISSUE WITH THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM THAT APPEARS TO BE AN ISSUE THAT WAS INVESTIGATED SEVERAL YEARS BACK ON ANOTHER VEHICLE. HOWEVER, IN DOING INTERNET RESEARCH, IT APPEARS MANY CORVETTE OWNERS HAVE EXPERIENCED THE SAME PROBLEM WHEREBY THE TURN SIGNALS WORK INTERMITTENTLY AND SOMETIMES NOT AT ALL OR JUST STOP WORKING AFTER THEY HAVE BLINKED FOR A FEW TIMES. I SEE THIS AS A VERY DANGEROUS ISSUE AS THE DRIVERS AROUND YOU DETERMINE THEIR BRAKING AND DRIVING SKILLS ON WHAT THEY SEE AND THEY MAY GET A FALSE SENSE OF WARNING WHEN THE BLINKER GOES OUT AND I STOP ANYWAY TO MAKE THE TURN. I WOULD THINK THAT I WOULD BE CITED BY LAW ENFORCEMENT AND THIS PROBLEM APPEARS TO BE A DEFECT IN THE DESIGN OR THE MANUFACTURER OF THE PART. *TR
