I have a 2015 z51 corvette and my windshield has a crack in it.I called Chevrolet and they said never heard that before.I have seen at least a hundred different people talking about the same incident.I feel GM should be having a recall for safety reasons.It is not a stone chip it is a crack from the top on the inside. I feel this is very unsafe and GM is just not addressing the he problem.Thank you for your time. [XXX]. INFORMATION Redacted PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6).
The windshield in the C7 Corvettes crack from the inside out. This is a very common occurrence, and it seems that GM/Chevrolet is completely ignoring it. 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.
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.
Windshield is delaminating. Delamination has caused a stress crack to develop. There is no evidence of a stone or other projectile impacting the windshield. These conditions have been verified by the Chevrolet dealer where the car was purchased after inspection by the service lane manager and the service director. Condition noticed when washing the car.
The contact owns a 2015 Chevrolet Corvette. While driving various speeds, the rearview mirror displayed a bright blinding light that obstructed the driver's view. In addition, the light caused a reflection on the windows of the vehicle and the contact could not see out of them. Orr Chevrolet in fort smith, Arkansas was made aware of the failure and stated that the contact should place a piece of tape over the light sensor. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure and stated that enough people had not complained about the failure for it to be a recall. The failure mileage was approximately 12,000.
