2014 - 2015 Corvette: Service Bulletin: 16009 Primary Tank Inlet Check Valve Fuel and Vapor Leaks


Condition

Some 2014 and 2015 model year Chevrolet Corvette vehicles may have a condition where a fuel odor is detected, fuel droplets appear below the left-hand fuel tank (driver side) with fuel gauge level above 1/2, or a malfunction indicator lamp illuminates due to a leak path in the left-hand (driver side) fuel tank at the Inlet Check Valve (ICV) to fuel tank shell interface.

Special Coverage Adjustment

This special coverage covers the condition described above for a period of 5 years or 60,000 miles (100,000 km), whichever occurs first, from the date the vehicle was originally placed in service, regardless of ownership. For vehicles covered by Vehicle Service Contracts, all eligible claims with repair orders on or after October 7, 2016, are covered by this special coverage and must be submitted using the labor operation codes provided with this bulletin. Claims with repair orders prior to October 7, 2016, must be submitted to the Service Contract provider.

Correction

Dealers are to replace the left hand (driver side) fuel tank. The repairs will be made at no charge to the customer. See attached Service Bulletin below for complete details:
