AFTER JUST 3,910 MILES THE TIRES WERE WORN PAST THE POINT OF INSPECTION. GM HAS SAID THIS IS NORMAL WEAR, IF NOT FOR THE ANNUAL INSPECTION STICKER I WOULDN'T HAVE GIVEN THESE TIRES A SECOND THOUGHT. TIRES WORN OUT IN JUST 3,910 MILES IS A SAFETY HAZARD AND TO THINK THAT 3-4 SETS OF TIRES ANNUALLY FOR SOMEONE WHO WOULD DRIVE THIS TO WORK DAILY IS JUST RIDICULOUS.HOW CAN A MANUFACTURER INSTALL SUCH A TIRE ON A STREET DRIVEN AUTOMOBILE? THERE IS NO WARNING THAT THESE TIRES PREMATURELY WEAR ON THE SALES LITERATURE OR INSTRUCTED BY THE DEALER.

CAR SAT STILL FOR THREE DAYS AND WHEN I WENT TO DRIVE IT, THE COMPUTER TOLD ME THAT MY LEFT REAR TIRE WAS DEFLATED TO ONLY 14 PSI INSTEAD OF 30 PSI. THEY ARE RUN FLAT TIRES, SO YOU CAN'T TELL IF THEY ARE FLAT. TOOK IT TO A CORVETTE MECHANIC AND WHEN HE REMOVED THE WHEEL, HE FOUND A GOOD SIZE CRACK IN THE INSIDE OF THE WHEEL AND AIR WAS LEAKING FROM THAT CRACK. I TOOK IT TO A DEALER AFTER I FILLED IT BACK TO 30 PSI AND ORDERED A NEW WHEEL. THIS MORNING I CHECKED THE COMPUTER AND THE PSI IS DOWN TO 20 OVERNIGHT. I HAVE NOT HIT ANY POTHOLES OR RACED THE CAR. THERE IS NO OTHER DAMAGE TO THE WHEEL OR TIRE.

SECOND TIME IN 3 MONTHS THAT THE RIMS HAVE BENT WHILE DRIVING. I HAD A 2017 CHEVY CORVETTE WHICH WAS REPURCHASED DUE TO MANUFACTURING DEFECT AND NEVER HAD THIS PROBLEM. THE FIRST TIME CAR HAD 600 MILES AND 2 RIMS BENT WHEN ENCOUNTERING A POTHOLE. THIS TIME, CAR NOT REPAIRED YET, HAS 1100 MILES AND ANOTHER RIM BENT DRIVING. THE SLIGHTEST IMPERFECTION IN THE ROADWAY CAUSES THESE RIMS TO BEND. I BELIEVE THESE RIMS ARE BEING MANUFACTURED POORLY. BOTH TIMES I WAS TRAVELING ON A HIGHWAY.

General Motors LLC (GM) is recalling certain 2019 Chevrolet Corvette ZR1 vehicles. Hard braking or acceleration may cause the sensing diagnostic module (SDM) to enter a fault state. As a result, the SDM will not provide crash sensing or deploy the necessary air bags in the event of a crash.
Consequence & remedy
Consequence: In the event of a crash, if the air bags do not deploy as designed, the occupants have an increased risk of injury.
Remedy: GM will notify owners, and dealers will reprogram the SDM with updated software, free of charge. The recall began on June 29, 2018. Owners may contact Chevrolet customer service at 1-800-222-1020. GM's number for this recall is 18195.
