general problems of the 2008 Chevrolet Corvette

I am a long time Corvette owner and have purchased many through the years. I recently purchased a 2008 Corvette coupe with only 30k miles, one owner vehicle. Unbelievable to me, I have had to spend over $4,000 the past month replacing the ecm and most notably the fuel pump, to relieve the constant fuel smell, not to mention the rack and pinion steering gear needs to be replaced, with again, only 30k miles on the vehicle, and that part is discontinued. The failure of the ecm almost cost my wife and I our life when we were coming home to [xxx] from [xxx] . The car completely lost all power on the highway and we almost got railed by traffic. Not a good situation to say the least. I almost had a heart attack. So we had to have it towed and finally made it home, only to find out the next day after a nice ride, my entire garage was overwhelmed with a gas smell that evening which permeated through the whole house. I took notice that gm covered this exact situation with gm bulletin # xxx back in 2017, so they knew there was a problem! my question is, how can gm not cover this now. Many 2008 Corvettes are still being bought and sold. I spent over $2800 for this last week! I am asking you and gm to at least cover 50% of this charge. I don't think that is too much to ask. It's much cheaper than having been sued by our family, should me wife and I have not survived that situation on the road, a case I know they would have won. We should definitely be compensated to say the least! thanks information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u. S. C. 552(b)(6).
