2023 Corvette Z06 pops engine at 52 miles - owner documents on video:
. With the purchase process complete, one of the salesmen at the dealer offered to follow Garcia back to his construction yard with said Stingray. Garcia took them up on this offer and agreed to drop the salesman back at the dealership following the exchange.After dropping the Stingray at the yard, the salesman jumped into the Z06 for the relatively short trek back to the dealership.
Garcia noticed a lack of power coming from the engine and opted to pull off the highway to investigate. A check-engine light and some aggressive rattling noises accompanied the issue, which began with just 52 miles on the odometer, Garcia says. After walking into town to charge his phone, Garcia was told by the dealer that he couldn't tow the car back there that evening. Furthermore, OnStar struggled to help as they didn't have the proper warranty information yet for such a new car.
Things didn't improve much the following day. OnStar sent a tow truck for the car on the 24th, but that truck wasn't authorized to return the car to the selling dealer. That created a new issue, apparently requiring Garcia to spend hours going through the OnStar service for assistance yet again. Once the car actually arrived at the proper dealership, a ton of error codes began popping up in Garcia's email inbox, sent via OnStar services.
Garcia says he's had it with the situation, and that he is not interested in continuing his Z06 ownership experience. Once the car is repaired, he's planning to move it on to the next owner. "Dead Z06 for sale pretty soon," said Garcia in the follow-up post. "I guess I'll probably try and fix it and sell it to someone else. It's a shame."
