2008 Chevrolet Corvette

The other day from my garage i smelled a overtaking smell of gas coming from my 2008 Corvette with only 22,300 miles on it. I thought it was coming from my gas cap , so i replace the cap. Replacing the gas cap didn't help there was still a overwhelming gas smell coming from the left side of the car. I also notice when the gas tank drops below a 1/2 tank the smell seams to go away. I found out there are hundreds of complaints about this issue and that there was a special coverage adjustment issued covering this problem with the Primary Tank Module Flange Fuel and Vapor Leaks for a limited time and miles. I believe such a serious safety issue there should have been a recall to fix this problem by GM regardless of time and mileage. I have taken the car to Chevrolet dealer which has confirmed the problem.

Fuel pump module leaking fuel causing fuel to drip onto the exhaust pipe. Potential fire hazard to occupants and occupants of area it is parked near. Yes the dealer and repair shop have confirmed it has cracked when it should not. It has only been inspected by the repair shop due to immediate safety concern. The symptoms were a very strong fuel odor and a puddle of fuel on the ground in the beginning of November.

Extreme gas fumes because of faulty fuel pump assembly. When in a closed garage area fuel leaks out of plastic fuel pump top then the vehicle is half full or more. GM to this day has not changed the part design. So you have replace it the same kind of faulty part if you can even find one. They claim since no one has died they feel a recall is not needed. I just replaced mine for $3000.00 at a Chevrolet dealership. Don't mind paying once but how long will this part with the faulty design last? I can't believe they can get away with this. Someone's going to get hurt or killed by an explosion if something isn't done. Long time GM customer but this is not except able. I know the car is 16 years old but this has been a problem since day one.

The contact owns a 2008 Chevrolet Corvette. The contact stated that on several occasions while driving at various speeds with a half tank of fuel or more, the contact observed a strong fuel odor inside the vehicle. The contact stated that the vehicle was parked multiple times and he also observed a strong fuel odor from outside of the vehicle. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 32,600. The contact stated the vehicle was taken to the dealer May 15 and was confirmed to have a fuel leak at the fuel pump.

I purchased this car just 10 days ago. The first night that I got it I went in the garage and smelled a lot of gas smell. Many people including myself have their gas water heater in the garage and I started to really panic. I googled the issue and it's apparent that this is a very common issue on the 2008-2013 corvettes and GM has used a faulty fuel pump module that started deteriorating over short period of time. I had a very sleepless and stressful night that night in fear of me waking up to a garage fire. I beg of you to please start a recall on this before anyone loses their life and their house

Our local Chevrolet dealer service department has found the fuel pump housing to be cracked causing fuel vapors to leak out the fuel pump/tank. These vapors have found their way into the cabin of the car effecting the air quality. This issue also has the potential for the vapors and spray in some cases to settle around hot exhaust. Chevrolet notified a number of of owners with notification letters regarding a fix for this condition, however I was never notified by any such campaign notice/letter. I'm compelled to write this grievance as I will have to pay out of pocket thousands of dollars to correct a defect the manufacturer has allowed to go on. Thank you!
