Owner Reported Trouble Spots

The Reliability score is based on our latest subscriber survey of 2019 Chevrolet Corvette owners. The owner comments describe problems respondents experienced with this vehicle.

Engine Minor

Accessory belts and pulleys, engine computer, engine mounts, engine knock or ping, fuel leaks, oil leaks.

What Owners Say

Oil leaks

"The first GM dealer put in extra 3 extra litres of motor oil when required was only 6.6 litres. This caused thick black smoke coming out of rear exhaust. A second GM dealer trying to correct the problem by changing motor oil, may have used the old oil filter, because it kept leaking until the car was taken to a third GM dealer. The third GM dealer only said the oil filter failed causing a leak. In my 45 years of driving never heard of a failed oil filter."

Anonymous, ON (2019 Chevrolet Corvette LT 6.2-L V8)

"Oil cooler began to leak. Smell detected from oil dripping on the exhaust system. Confirmed by CHEVROLET dealer and oil drips on garage floor. No replacement spare was available in the GM system. Replacement came from a wreck."

Anonymous A., FL (2019 Chevrolet Corvette Grand Sport 6.2-L V8)

Engine Electrical

Alternator, starter, hybrid battery replacement, hybrid battery related systems, regular battery, battery cables, engine harness, coil, ignition switch, electronic ignition, spark plugs and wires failure, auto stop/start.

What Owners Say

Spark plugs or wires failure

"Driving on highway engine started running rough. Took it to dealer for engine check and found #3 cylinder spark plug bad. Replaced and all is good."

Anonymous, TX (2019 Chevrolet Corvette Grand Sport 6.2-L V8)

Transmission Minor

Gear selector and linkage, transmission computer, transmission sensor or solenoid, clutch adjustment, rough shifting, slipping transmission, leaks.

What Owners Say

Rough shifting

"Apparently there is a longstanding issue with this transmission and several GM technical bulletins about it. The "cheap" fix is a 3 x flush of the transmission with synthetic transmission fluid. You would think this would be inexpensive but with labor and fluid it cost over $2500 to fix this known transmission problem. If this does not work or the problem reoccurs then the next step is to replace the torque converter."
