IllustrationBad 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.

SEE MORE INFO HERE: HTTPS://WWW.CORVETTEFORUM.COM/FORUMS/C7-GENERAL-DISCUSSION/3946004-2016-Z06-WINDSHIELD-CRACK-IS-IT-COMMON.HTML A SIMPLE GOOGLE SEARCH ( CORVETTE WINDSHIELD CRACKS FROM INSIDE ) AND YOU WILL FIND HUNDREDS OF PEOPLE THAT HAVE EXPERIENCED THIS PROBLEM. APPARENTLY, THERE IS SOME KIND OF WELDING/MANUFACTURING DEFECT THAT CAUSES RUBBING ON THE INSIDE OF THE WINDSHIELD CAUSING THEM TO CRACK. THIS CAN OBSTRUCT THE VIEW OF THE DRIVER AND IS UNSAFE. MY CAR HAS DONE THE SAME THING. WHEN CONTACTING THE DEALER, WE HAVE BEEN TOLD THIS IS NOT A RECALL OR SERVICE BULLETIN AND SO IT WILL BE OUT-OF-POCKET REPAIR AND NOT COVERED UNDER WARRANTY.

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.

WINDSHIELD MOUNTING STRESS CRACK. WHILE INSIDE MY GARAGE TODAY, I FOUND A LARGE 25 INCH LONG CRACK IN THE UPPER DRIVERS SIDE CORNER OF MY 2015 CORVETTE. UPON INSPECTION THE CRACK IS ON THE INSIDE LAYER OF THE 2 LAYER GLASS. NOTHING FELL ON THE CAR AND I HAVEN'T DRIVEN IT FOR 6 MONTHS. BEING FRIENDS WITH OTHER CORVETTE OWNERS, I SPOKE WITH THEM AND WAS SENT TO THE 'CORVETTEFORUM ' ONLINE. I WAS SURPRISED TO FIND THIS IS AN ONGOING ISSUE WITH THIS MODEL OF CAR. WHILE SOME OWNERS ARE COVERED FOR REPLACEMENT BY GM DEALERSHIPS UNDER WARRANTY. MANY OWNERS ARE NOT COVERED EVEN THO THEY HAVE VERY LOW MILEAGE. MY CAR, 6 YEARS OLD AND 27,000 MILES. THE FORUMS DISCUSSES OWNERS DISMAY AND SAFETY CONCERNS, AND HOW COULD SO MANY CORVETTE C7S HAVE THE SAME ISSUE, AND GM NOT ISSUING A RECALL OR SOMETHING TO HELP ALL THE OWNERS. THESE CRACKING WINDSHIELDS POSE A SAFETY AND LEGAL ISSUE IF DRIVEN. IT IS NOT AN ACT OF GOD THAT CAUSED THE CRACKS, BUT A MISALIGNED GUIDE PIN OR TAB IN DIRECT CONTACT WITH THE GLASS GM DESIGNED INTO THE CAR. I LIKE GM, AND WOULD LIKE THEM TO LIKE ME TOO. THAT MUTUAL RESPECT IS TRULY WHAT THIS WORLD NEEDS NOW.

WHEN THE VEHICLE IS IN MOTION, AT A CONSTANT HIGHWAY SPEED, 40 TO 70 MPH,ANY ACCELERATION OR DECELERATION, CAUSES THE CAR TO VIBRATE FOR SEVERAL SECONDS. I FEEL THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE BECAUSE, AT TIMES, DURING THE 'SHUDDER' EVENT, THE CAR WILL LUNGE FORWARD.GM HAS DIAGNOSED THE PROBLEM AS 'SHUDDER' AND HAS ISSUED A SERVICE BULLETIN. THE FIX THEY RECOMMEND IS A COMPLETE TRANSMISSION FLUSH AND FILL WITH AN UPGRADED TRANSMISSION FLUID. I AM ASSUMING THE OEM FLUID IS DEFECTIVE. THIS CONDITION IS NOT AN ISOLATED EVENT. IT HAPPENS ALMOST EVER TIME SPEED IS ACCELERATED OR DECELERATED. MY VEHICLE ONLY HAD 5600 MILES.
SLOW DOWN SHIFT. WHEN YOU HIT THE ACCELERATOR WHILE THE CAR IS DOWN SHIFTING, THERE IS A 2 SECOND DELAY. I CAME OFF EXPRESS WAY AND TURNED ON TO ROAD THEN HIT THE GAS TO MERGE INTO A LANE WHEN THERE WAS A 2 SECOND DELAY. VERY DANGEROUS. HOW DO I FIX PROBLEM? WHY IS CHEVROLET NOT FIXING PROBLEM.

I HAVE A 2015 CORVETTE STINGRAY WITH 35K MILES. THE VEHICLE HAS BEEN TO THE DEALERSHIP 2 TIMES ALREADY ONCE AT 11K MILES AND SECOND TIME AT 22K MILES WHERE THE CAR SHOULD SHUDDER WHILE CRUISING AT LOW SPEEDS. ALSO IN THE MORNING DURING A COLD START WHEN I WOULD SHIFT THE CAR FROM PARK INTO REVERSE THEN THE CAR WOULD DO A HARD SHIFT. TWICE THE DEALERSHIP CHANGED THE FLUID IN THE TRANSMISSION AND REBUILT THE ENTIRE TRANSMISSION SINCE THE CAR WAS UNDER WARRANTY. BUT MY CAR'S EXTENDED WARRANTY EXPIRED ON 03/01/20, IN 06/01/20 THE ISSUE CAME BACK. NOW GM IS REFUSING TO TAKE RESPONSIBILITY TO FIX THE VEHICLE. WHEN REFUELING, TANK FILLER PIPE ACCEPTS FUEL ONLY VERY SLOWLY. SEVERAL DIFFERENT GAS STATION PUMPS WERE TRIED, ALL KEPT CLICKING OFF EVERY 3 SECONDS (AS IF TANK WAS FULL). TANK WAS EMPTY TO TAKE IN SEVERAL MORE GALLONS OF FUEL.
TRANSMISSION SHIFTS HARD BETWEEN FIRST AND SECOND, INTERMITTENT SHUDDER EVERY 2 TO 3 SECONDS WHEN DRIVING DOWN ROAD AT NORMAL HIGHWAY SPEEDS COMING FROM TRANSMISSION

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.
Consequence & remedy
Consequence: A failure of the front air bags or seat belt pretensioners to deploy in the event of a crash necessitating deployment increases the risk of injury to the driver and front passenger.
Remedy: 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.
