Recall Alert: C8 Corvette

2020 Chevrolet Corvette StingrayChevrolet is recalling a small number of 2021 and 2022 Chevy Corvette Stingrays because dealers need to inspect their axles.

Chevy discovered a potential problem when the rear driveshaft assembly on one 2021 Corvette shattered, immobilizing the car. GM engineers inspected the ‘Vette and found that its rear halfshaft contained just four ball bearings rather than the normal six.

In consultation with the supplier that built the shafts, GM engineers narrowed the risk down to halfshafts built on certain dates. So, the company has recalled those cars — 18 in all — to replace both left and right halfshafts.
