2011 Chevrolet Corvette Problems, complaints & recalls

I bought this vehicle in [redacted] with about 39k miles. About a year after purchase, I began smelling gasoline in my garage after I filled the tank. I have consulted Corvette forum ([[redacted]]) and find this is a common problem. If I fill the tank more than halfway, it seems to occur consistently. I recognize this car has no warranty, but this seems to be both common and a serious safety concern. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

My 2011 Grand Sport Corvette fuel system was repaired on 2/14/22 at no cost to me by special policy 15682-03. Now, 4 years later, the same problem has occurred again. I notice fuel smell in my garage with the tank nearly full after fill-up, and upon inspection, I notice evidence of fuel leaking along the side of the primary tank behind the driver's seat which is the same problem encountered before. GM tells me no additional help for repair is not forthcoming due to the age of the vehicle. My originating dealer...

Fuel pump feeder is known to be a major issues on these cars. These should be a safety recall with no explanation. Feeder fitting tends to crack overtime. Recently purchased and wasn't aware of that previous recall which the previous owner didn't handle.

Fuel is leaking from the top of the driver side fuel sending unit. This is a know issue on these cars and should be fixed under a recall. This is a very dangerous issue.

I bought a 2011 Grand Sport Corvette and if I fill the tank over half full the gas smell is unbearable. Some one needs to recall these cars. This issue is very serious. Fuel leaks out the top of the tanks, and will then drip down the back side onto the hot exhaust. If ignored this could result in a fire and possible death. If parked overnight in a garage, the vapor will fill the garage and could easily be triggered into an explosion and fire from a gas water heater or other ignition source.

Fuel pump elbow at top of driver side tank cracks and allows fuel to leak out of plastic piece. Many have the same issue and all we got was a very temporary fuel pump recall. Engine light is on

My entire garage is filled with gas fumes after I filled my car up to full yesterday. I drive my car once every 2 weeks and this is filling my garage with fumes. There are no visible leaks, there is a technical service bulletin regarding a gas tank issue that expired. What component or system failed or malfunctioned, and is it available for inspection upon request? UNKNOWN, the vehicle is available for inspection. How was your safety or the safety of others put at risk? I could smell gas fumes from...

Driving and service active control system can on feel like brakes locked up, very scary.

Same fuel smell issue as what GM kinda covered with Bulletin #[[redacted]] However that is a 10 year / 120,000 miles limit. I'm under the miles but over on time. Just purchased the vehicle (was told "there are no recalls" because they were allow to all it a "Special Warranty Adjustment". Of course the previous owner didn't get this addressed ... nor WOULD they if the smell started later. So ... still a fire hazard ... even the fix offered is replacing plastic parts with same plastic parts and crossing fingers....

Fuel smell coming from car when parked. Garage smells like fuel. Chevrolet [[redacted]] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

Gasoline drips out under the car after fill up. About 1/2 quart comes out and makes a puddle about 5 foot in diameter. Happens after every fill up. I turned in a NTHTSA complaint about fuel vapor smells after fill up on 9/6/2020 but heard nothing back. The problem has obviously progressed to leaking liquid gasoline on the ground.

There is a smell of fuel when you get in the car. Looked online and seen several people having the same issue seems to happen when you have more than a half tank of gas. See small drip after sitting under car at front of drivers side rear wheel

Fuel tank is leaking, strong fumes in my garage, I have to park outside, is this a recall? I've heard so many fuel leaking problems with the C6 Corvette

The airbag light stays on due to the connectors under the seats dragging on the carpet when the seats are moved forward or back

Strong odor of gas fumes in driver compartment, seems to eminate from driver side. Plastic flange on top of fuel pump is cracked and spews gas to surrounding area. Smell is constant regardless of fuel level. GM has been aware of problem for years but has yet to issue recall. They did issue temporary special coverage adjustment not adequate for earlier model years where issue was systemic. Yes my car is available for inspection. This is health and safety issue which should warrant a recall. Fire hazard as well. No warning lamps appear on dash.

I recently purchased a 2011 Chevy Corvette Grand Sport from a dealer in South Florida named Greico Chevrolet in Del Rey Beach. It was purchased used and as is from this dealer, but this appears to be a quite dangerous problem. I smell gasoline on the drivers side wheel well most of the time and sometimes the smell seeps through the car into the cabin. This is not from overfilling the tank (which I do not do anyway). I researched this issue and it appears to be an issue with two GM cars. See this statement and let...

I purchased this 2011 corvette on December 31st, 2021. I drove it home and parked it in the garage. The next day I smelled gas but couldn't find any leaks. Yesterday I had the car on a lift and changed the transmission filter and fluid. While I was underneath it, I noticed liquid streaks on the left fuel tank and possibly on the right tank also. Today I googled corvette C6 gas leaks and found all the information on the problems regarding plastic on fuel pumps cracking or seals failing. I am sure that my car is...

Air bag light in dashboard seemingly randomly turns on and off while driving and is usually on indicating an issue with the air bag system. To begin with the light was only intermittently on but over time it has reversed and now the light only turns off intermittently.

The engine light continues to come on, with the code for emissions leak. changed the gas-cap, put in Catalatic Converter Cleaner, but did not get rid of the constant code. have been shutting the code off with help from the parts store. The car only has 31,000 miles, the system shouldn't be throwing an emissions code.

The fuel component on this vehicle is the concern. The fuel vapor is very strong inside the car and especially outside around the driver's side. When parked in the garage, the fuel smell would seep into the house. I am afraid to park it inside the garage due to strong fuel vapor coming out of the vehicle. I am afraid that the strong fuel vapor might ignite due to other power sources inside the garage. This issue is well known in the Corvette community, on Corvette Forum. I have scheduled to bring it into a...

Upon filling fuel tank and returning home and parking vehicle in garage, fuel smell and leak was confirmed on floor of garage. Vehicle was taken to a automotive center to have inspected and automotive center stated " fuel leaking when filling with fuel." Automotive center states "was able to inspect with an inspection camera and found that top of fuel tank is leaking at the fuel pump module seal to the tank. Also can see the vapor valve is wet from fuel as well. Recommend both pumps and evap valve." Concerned for safety of vehicle when driving and parked.

I am a one-time owner of a 2011 corvette grand sport vehicle. I have noticed that following a filling of the gas tank to full, a significant and persistent gasoline smell appears in my garage. I eventually brought my vehicle in for service on february 3, 2021 in order to determine the cause. I was told that a gas leak was observed from the top of the tank. In addition, I was told that the expensive replacement of the gas tank could not be found. I am now very reluctant to drive the vehicle.

I have a 2011 chevrolet corvette with about 34,000 miles on it. The automatic transmission shift linkage cable has plastic grommets that connect the shift handle to the transmission. The plastic grommets broke disabling the ability to shift out of park into any gear. I was parked in a parking lot when this happened. My concern is if this happens while driving you will lose control of the car.

The 2011 corvette started having strong fuel smell after driving

Every time I fuel up passed half , there is a strong scent of fuel in the car that won't go away.
