Chevrolet Corvette refuelling spillage can reach an ignition source

General Motors is recalling certain 2023-2026 Corvette vehicles with a left-side radiator/fan combination because excess fuel may spill into the filler pocket during refuelling and leak onto an ignition source.

What this means for you

Our assessment, not the agency’s: severity 3/5 (High).

Real risk of harm even if no illness or injury has been reported yet. Stop using the product and follow the agency's guidance.

Our severity reasoning: Rubric level 3 covers risk-of-harm where injury has not yet been reported: the fuel system itself is not breached and the defect is in how spilled fuel drains during refuelling, with no incidents recorded.
