    On the 2020-2021 Chevrolet Corvette 6.2L LT2 V8, a defective supplier batch of valve springs went into GM V8 engines built between June 1 and September 15, 2020, including the 6.2L LT2 in the C8 Stingray. Springs broke at astonishingly low mileage — documented C8 failures at 57 miles and at 115 miles, one of which required a flatbed tow. A broken spring drops valve control on that cylinder, producing a misfire, an audible tapping or clattering engine noise, a check engine light, and in the worst case valve-to-piston contact that destroys the head or the engine. GM acknowledged the defect in service bulletin PIP5752A on September 22, 2020, covering seven V8 families (L87, LT1, LT2, LT4, L82, L84, L8T). Owners subsequently reported failures on engines built past the September 15 cutoff, and GM extended the affected build window, so the published date range should be treated as a floor rather than a boundary. This is a discrete supplier defect and is unrelated to the LT2's lifter-tick and DFM behavior.

    This issue also affects: Buick LeSabre, Buick Park Avenue, Buick Cascada

    Common Symptoms

    • Check engine light with misfire codes
    • Rough idle or unstable idle speed
    • Ticking, tapping, or clattering from the engine
    • Sudden loss of power at very low mileage
    • Engine will not restart after failure

    How to Fix

    Have the dealer run GM PIP5752A. The bulletin requires a cylinder leakage test on the affected cylinder first. If no leakage is found on an LT-series engine built in the affected window, the correct repair is to replace all valve springs on both banks — not just the broken one — which is 16 springs for the 6.2L LT2. If leakage is present, further teardown determines whether the head, valve, or short block is damaged. GM required all removed springs be returned to Detroit for analysis, so confirm your dealer follows the return process rather than performing a partial repair. This work is covered by the 5-year/60,000-mile powertrain warranty. If your car's engine build date sits near or just past September 15, 2020 and you have misfire symptoms, push the dealer to open a case with GM rather than accepting a build-date denial, since the window was extended once already.

    On the 2020-2025 Chevrolet Corvette LT2, the C8 Corvette uses the LT2 6.2L V8 with Dynamic Fuel Management (DFM) which can deactivate any combination of cylinders. While the LT2 is generally reliable, some owners report lifter tick similar to the AFM issues on truck engines. The DFM system uses the same collapsible lifter technology. GM has released updated VLOM and lifter designs for the LT2. The tick is most noticeable on cold starts and usually disappears when warm. Severe cases may require lifter replacement.

    This issue also affects: Buick LeSabre, Buick Park Avenue, Buick Cascada

    Common Symptoms

    • Ticking noise from engine on cold start
    • Tick that goes away when engine warms up
    • Rough idle briefly on startup
    • Misfire codes on specific cylinders (rare)

    How to Fix

    Mild cold-start tick is considered normal on LT2 by many in the Corvette community. Persistent tick that does not go away when warm warrants inspection. GM has updated VLOM and lifter designs. A DFM disabler (Range Technology) can be used as a preventive measure. Full lifter replacement is rarely needed on C8.

    On the 2020 Chevrolet Corvette 6.2L LT2 V8, gM recalled 2020 C8 Corvettes after finding that sensor contamination inside the electronic brake boost (eBoost) module can interrupt communication within the braking system. The C8 uses an electronically boosted brake system rather than a conventional vacuum booster, so when the module drops out the driver loses power assist and must apply substantially higher pedal effort to stop the car. NHTSA identified the consequence as increased crash risk. Owner complaints filed against the 2020 car back this up in blunt terms, with one owner reporting the brakes did fail and that it was difficult to stop the vehicle. Notification and remedy for campaign 20V588000 began December 9, 2020.

    Common Symptoms

    • Brake warning lights illuminate on the cluster
    • Hard brake pedal requiring much greater effort
    • Reduced braking performance and longer stopping distances
    • Loss of brake assist without warning

    How to Fix

    Verify your VIN against campaign 20V588000 at nhtsa.gov/recalls or through a Chevrolet dealer; the remedy is free replacement of the electronic brake boost module. If the brake warning light or a 'Service Brake Assist' style message appears while driving, treat it as an immediate loss-of-assist warning: the brakes will still stop the car mechanically but need far more pedal force and far more distance. Increase following distance dramatically, avoid highway speeds, and get the car to a dealer without delay. Do not clear the fault and continue driving on the assumption it is a sensor glitch — the recall exists because the interruption is intermittent and repeats.

    On the 2020-2024 Chevrolet Corvette, the Tremec TR-9080 eight-speed dual-clutch transaxle (RPO M1L) fitted to every C8 has generated a sustained pattern of failures serious enough that GM formally notified NHTSA in November 2021 that it was investigating. The signature complaint is a 'Service Transmission' message that will not clear and that prevents the car from powering off — GM attributed this to debris on the park position sensor magnet feeding an incorrect position reading to the transmission control module. Beyond that, owners report DCT fluid leaks, DCT filters found heavily contaminated well before the 7,500-mile initial service, low-speed shudder during parking-lot maneuvers and 1-2 shifts on early 2020 cars, limp-mode entry, unexpected shifts into neutral while driving, and outright transmission replacement — one NHTSA complaint documents total transmission failure at 1,400 miles, another documents the rear transaxle case cracking and dumping fluid onto the exhaust. GM went so far as to bulletin dealers in November 2021 to collect and return every DCT filter removed at the 7,500-mile service for engineering analysis. The debris findings suggest internal wear material circulating in the unit, not merely a software calibration problem.

    This issue also affects: Buick Encore GX, Buick Envision, Cadillac CT6

    Common Symptoms

    • 'Service Transmission' message that will not clear
    • Vehicle will not power off / cannot be shut down
    • Shudder during low-speed maneuvers, parking, or 1-2 upshifts
    • Transmission drops into neutral while driving
    • Transmission enters limp mode
    • Fluid leak from the rear transaxle
    • DCT filter found heavily contaminated at first service
    • Complete transmission failure at low mileage

    How to Fix

    Do not skip or defer the free early transmission service — GM specifies it before 7,500 miles precisely because the filter traps break-in debris, and skipping it is the single most avoidable path to a failed unit. For the shudder complaint on 2020-2021 cars, the fix is a TCM recalibration; GM released successive DCT software updates and most owners report the shudder resolved or dramatically improved after the flash, so ask for the latest calibration before any hardware work. For a 'Service Transmission' message that will not clear or a car that will not power down, the park position sensor magnet and its debris contamination is the item to inspect. Have the dealer document the filter's condition in writing at every service — that record is what supports a goodwill claim if the transaxle later fails outside the 5-year/60,000-mile powertrain warranty. Any fluid on the rear of the car or a burnt smell warrants immediate inspection: a cracked case leaking onto the hot exhaust is a fire risk, not a convenience issue.

    On the 2020 Chevrolet Corvette 6.2L LT2 V8, gM recalled 2020 C8 Corvettes because the driver's seat belt retractor may not lock as intended during a crash. The retractor's locking mechanism is what arrests the occupant against the belt in a collision; if it does not engage, the driver continues forward into the airbag and steering wheel with far more travel than the restraint system is designed to allow. NHTSA identified the consequence as increased injury risk if the driver's restraint fails to engage during a collision. This defect is silent — the belt operates normally in everyday use and gives no indication that it will not lock under crash loading, which is why VIN verification matters more here than symptom-watching. Dealer remedy for campaign 20V581000 began October 15, 2020.

    Common Symptoms

    • Driver seat belt does not lock when pulled sharply
    • No warning symptom in normal driving
    • Belt pays out under load

    How to Fix

    Check your VIN against campaign 20V581000 at nhtsa.gov/recalls or with any Chevrolet dealer; the remedy is free replacement of the driver's side seat belt retractor. Because the fault is undetectable in normal use, do not assume the car is unaffected just because the belt feels fine. You can do a crude sanity check by yanking the belt sharply — it should lock instantly — but a belt that passes this test can still fail the recall criteria, so the VIN check is the only reliable answer. GM's contact number for this campaign is 1-866-522-9559. If you bought the car used, verify the recall was actually performed rather than trusting the seller's paperwork.

    On the 2020-2024 Chevrolet Corvette, gM opened a service inspection program covering 2020-2021 C8 Corvettes fitted with the Open Spoke and Trident wheel designs after finding that exposed porosity in the aluminum wheel castings exceeded internal GM limits. The porosity presents as hairline cracking and allows air to weep through the casting, so the first thing an owner notices is a recurring low tire pressure warning on a wheel that holds no visible puncture. Roughly 13,049 U.S. cars were called in for inspection, with GM estimating about 10 percent actually carried the defect. The problem did not stop with the inspection program: NHTSA complaints on later cars describe a right rear wheel cracked at 23,000 miles with the owner noting it is a widely reported condition, and a 2024 owner reporting all four factory wheels found bent or deformed and recommended for replacement with no collision, pothole strike, or curb impact. The C8 runs low-profile rubber on wide cast rims with very little sidewall to absorb impact, which makes the inner barrel — where the casting is least supported — the usual failure point.

    Common Symptoms

    • Recurring low tire pressure warning on one wheel
    • Slow air leak with no puncture found in the tire
    • Hairline cracks visible on the inner rim barrel
    • Vibration or wheel shimmy at speed
    • Wheels found bent or deformed with no impact event

    How to Fix

    Treat a repeating low-pressure warning on one corner as a wheel problem, not a tire problem. Have the tire dismounted and the bare wheel water-tested or soap-tested, inspecting the inner barrel specifically, since porosity leaks and inner-barrel cracks are invisible with the tire mounted. For 2020-2021 cars with Open Spoke or Trident wheels, ask the dealer to run your VIN against GM's wheel inspection program — inspection and replacement are free under it, and dealers destroy rejected wheels by drilling the barrel, so make sure a replacement is authorized before the old wheel is scrapped. Outside the program, document every occurrence with the dealer to build a goodwill case. If you are replacing at your own cost and you drive the car hard, a forged wheel is the durable answer; cast wheels on this platform have a poor record. Check pressures weekly rather than relying on the TPMS threshold, and inspect the inner barrel any time the car takes a hard road impact.

    On the 2020-2023 Chevrolet Corvette, the C8 convertible uses a fully electric retractable hardtop driven by six electric motors and a set of latches, with no hydraulics. Owners report the top jamming partway through its cycle, failing to latch (most often at the right front), throwing a 'Service Convertible Top' or 'Top Not Secure' message, and the interior release button failing to actuate the roof at all. NHTSA complaint data reflects this: 2022 C8 complaints show a cluster filed under the structure/convertible-top component, and a 2023 owner reported that the electric button to open the hard top convertible does not activate along with the driver's door release. Because the roof is a motor-and-latch system rather than a hydraulic one, a single failed motor, a mis-set latch, or a module that has lost its position learn will stall the whole sequence and leave the car undriveable at speed with the top unsecured. The system also refuses to operate below its temperature thresholds by design, which owners frequently mistake for a failure.

    Common Symptoms

    • 'Service Convertible Top' message on the cluster
    • 'Top Not Secure' warning
    • Top stops partway through raising or lowering
    • Top will not latch, typically at the right front corner
    • Interior top release button does not activate
    • Water leaking from the roof side seals after washing

    How to Fix

    First rule out the design limits before chasing a fault: the top will not lower below roughly 32F and will not raise below roughly 14F, and the cluster displays a temperature warning when it refuses. If the message appears in normal conditions, do not repeatedly cycle the switch — repeated attempts against a jammed latch strip motor gears and turn a cheap fix into a full mechanism replacement. Have the dealer read the roof control module for position and latch faults and inspect the right front latch alignment specifically, since that is the common offender. Replacement roof motors and control modules must be programmed to the vehicle with a scan tool, so this is not a parts-swap job. If the top is stuck partially open, do not drive above parking-lot speed. Also inspect the side seals if you see water intrusion after a high-pressure car wash, which is a separate but frequently co-occurring complaint on the same roof.

    On the 2020-2025 Chevrolet Corvette, the mid-engine C8 Corvette has reported issues with the front trunk (frunk) latch mechanism. The electronic latch can fail to release or fail to secure properly. GM has issued recalls for frunk latch issues that could allow the frunk to open at speed. Additionally, some C8 owners report various electrical gremlins including infotainment freezes, wireless charging pad failures, and key fob range issues. These are software and build-quality issues typical of a first-generation mid-engine design.

    Common Symptoms

    • Frunk will not open via button or key fob
    • Frunk opens unexpectedly or does not latch securely
    • FRUNK AJAR warning when closed properly
    • Infotainment screen freezing or rebooting
    • Wireless phone charging pad not working
    • Key fob range reduced or intermittent

    How to Fix

    Frunk latch: GM recall N212346680 addresses the latch mechanism. Dealer will inspect and replace the latch assembly under recall. Infotainment: ensure software is up to date via dealer or OTA updates. Wireless charger: clean the charging pad and ensure phone case is compatible. Key fob: replace battery (CR2032) and check for interference from aftermarket electronics.
