general problems of the 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.

Car has fuel leak. Once I turn on the car it starts leaking gas. I could be stationary or in motion, it still leaks gas. It also smells terrible inside my car. I am worried about my health and other Corvette owners. Some Corvette owners may not even notice and next thing you know there car is on fire. Worse case scenario they could be injured or even death. This is a safety issue and gm should recall this. Im lucky to be even writing this I could've blown up while driving the car.

July 19th 2014 I purchased a 2002 Chevrolet Corvette z06 from autonation Ford in littleton colorado. July 26th after returning home I parked the car in my garage. When I came out to move the car later that afternoon the steering column would not unlock. There was a message on the driver information center that said "service column lock". I immediately called autonation Chevrolet, since the vehicle is Chevrolet, to see if I could get some advice on how to resolve the issue. The service manager checked with a technician and I was told that the car would need service. Autonation Chevrolet referred me to autonation Buick GMC. The car was towed to autonation Buick GMC on the morning of July 27th 2014. After determining that their dealership was incapable of doing the repair autonation Buick GMC had the car towed to ed bozarth Chevrolet park meadows for repair. I researched the issue & found out that the "service column lock" issue was a recall issue in 2004 for Corvettes. The "service column lock issue also effects the fuel system and limits the car to 2 mph. First notification of the recall went out to owners on August 2nd 2004. I contacted gm on Aug. 1st 2014, 1 day short of the 10 year limit on recall work. Ed bozarth informed me that the repair would not be covered under the recall. I then contacted gm corporate to inquire about the recall. Gm corporate informed me that the recall work had been done on my Corvette in 2006. Since the same "service column lock" issue arose, the recall work failed. I asked gm corporate if they would cover the failed recall repair and I was told that they wouldn't. I would ask that since gm's recall work did not solve the "service column lock" issue that they cover the approximately $1500 repair that I had to pay for to get my car back in a drivable state.

Filled vehicle with gas on March 22nd. Drove car home and parked it in garage. The next day, I smelled a strong odor of gas. When I backed it out of the garage, there was a small puddle of gas on the floor.
