| Engine And Engine Cooling problems |
There is a strong smell of gasoline in the trunk. The smell is stronger when the gas tank is recently filled or full.
Received 2020 Corvette on 9/15/20, on 9/24/20 went to use the car to do to doctor. The car started and then would not run. Had all kind of message; service engine, no oil pressure; traction control, had bad smell. Had to have flatbed tow truck get the car and take it to a Chevrolet dealer. Car has broken valve springs. Car has been gone 10 days so far and do not have all of the valve springs to repair car. Car only has 115 miles on it. Luckily the car was in the garage when this happened.
I tried to register the vehicle and cannot register the car. It fails smog. 02 sensor not ready. The battery has not been disconnected since it's first mile driven.
Car is equipped with remote start. On April 20th I parked in the garage, put groceries away including some that went in the fridge in the garage. The Corvette keys were in my pocket. I set a timer for one hour for items I had put in the garage freezer to chill. When I went back at the one hour alarm, the vehicle was running in the closed garage. To use remote start the vehicle has to be locked first and I never lock the vehicle in a closed garage. Chance motion of those keys in my pocket had locked the vehicle and initiated remote engine start. I had just laid down to nap when the one hour alarm went off. I shudder to think what would have happened had I not used my alarm for those food items.
