Known problems
- C7 Z06 heat soak on trackmoderate
Some C7 Z06 owners, especially with early cars on hot days, report the car reducing power or showing high temperature warnings after a few hard laps. The supercharged LT4 creates a lot of heat. GM made changes to later cars, and the aftermarket offers cooling upgrades.
- C7 8L90 automatic shuddermoderate
Many 2015–2019 C7 owners with the 8-speed 8L90 automatic report a shudder or vibration at light throttle, often felt like driving over rumble strips. GM issued service information related to the transmission fluid. Ask a dealer to check your VIN.
- Wheel bearing / hub failurehigh
C5, C6 and C7 Corvettes use sealed hub bearing assemblies. They wear over time, especially with wide tires, track use or impacts. A failing hub causes a hum or growl that changes with speed and cornering.
