Dreaded paint chip 2019 GS
OK update, Got a call this morning from GM Customer care Oshawa. The person I talked to said it's covered and I could take it to any GM dealer that I wish to. I told her where I would take it and she said she was going to call the body shop manager there to bring him up to speed. She was... -
Dreaded paint chip 2019 GS
Well today's update. I agree with what everyone is saying and I really don't care if the front fascia gets repaired or not. It's more a car with a retail price of over 105K that's under 2 years old with 7K on the OD that there is a TSB on the issue and I get shrug off. Well I thought I would... -
Dreaded paint chip 2019 GS
Well got a call from the dealership (who said it's covered) and they told me that GM rejected the issue telling them it was caused by a stone chip. Now I'm pissed since the only was that area could get a stone chip is if it came from heaven straight down from above. The guy that said no was... -
Dreaded paint chip 2019 GS
I took the Vette in to the dealership today and they looked at the chip and said it was completely covered. There is a TSB issued in 2017 and was updated in 2019 that covers all Corvettes from 2017 to 2019. In case you want to look up the TSB it's 17-NA-355. The dealer told me the problem is... -

Dreaded paint chip 2019 GS
It’s definitely under warranty.18 months and 7k and a rock couldn’t hit that area. It’s got to be because of a tight fit. I’ve seen pics from the US side and they all seem to be in the same place and same side. We have some dealers on here and was hoping some would chime in on what GM does... -

78- Constant air in brakes
its a fairly common problem with C3s. Assuming they must be sleeve calipers by now it’s more than likely the lip seals. I’ve change a lot of them over time from lip seals to o-rings. The kits aren’t too much money. Usually under 80 bucks for either fronts or backs. When hot they tend to suck in... -
Question Recommended Body Shop - Windsor ON
There are a few that are really good at doing corvettes. I’ve had a few C2’s and one C5 done by Dino at Metro collision and they did a great job on all of them. Cash speaks louder also. The other is Reiner collision. I’ve seen a few from the Windsor Corvette club members cars that were done... -
C3 info
If it’s a Canadian export corvette they definitely have the paperwork that the GM car was exported with. There is someone at GM Oshawa that does this as part of his job. I’ll get his name and email address if you can’t find it. You email him and he’ll send you the form to fill out along with... -

Question Is it time for a new battery?
Jim, you said that this battery has been in the car since you bought it in 2013 so it’s 6+ years old. Time for a new battery. Battery life is 5 years max. You could have far more issues caused with the old battery.- GSBob
