2006 Chevrolet Corvette problems
The Chevrolet Corvette is a line of American two-door, two-seater sports cars, manufactured and marketed by General Motors, under the Chevrolet marque, since 1953.
Over the course of eight generations, indicated sequentially as C1 to C8, the Corvette is noted for its performance, distinctive styling, lightweight fiberglass or composite bodywork, and competitive pricing. Since the cessation of Ford and Chrysler's competitors, the Corvette is the only two-seat sports car produced by a major United States auto manufacturer and serves as Chevrolet's halo car.
Since its introduction in 1953, the two-seater has steadily moved upmarket. Originally a relatively modest, lightweight 6‑cylinder convertible, subsequent introductions of V8 engines, competitive chassis innovations, and rear mid-engined layout have positioned the Corvette in the supercar class. The first three Corvette generations (1953–1983) employed body-on-frame construction, and since the C4 generation, introduced in 1983 as an early 1984 model, Corvettes have used GM's unibody Y‑body platform. All Corvettes used front mid-engine configuration for seven generations, through 2019, and transitioned to a rear mid-engined layout with the C8 generation.
In 1953, GM executives accepted a suggestion by Myron Scott, then the assistant director of the Public Relations department, to name the company's new sports car after the corvette, a small maneuverable warship. The first model, a convertible, was introduced at the 1953 GM Motorama as a concept car; production models went on sale later that year. In 1963, the second generation was introduced in coupe and convertible styles. Originally manufactured in Flint, Michigan, and St. Louis, Missouri, the Corvette has been produced in Bowling Green, Kentucky, since 1981, which is also the location of the National Corvette Museum.
The Corvette has become widely known as "America's Sports Car." Automotive News wrote that after being featured in the early 1960s television show Route 66, "the Corvette became synonymous with freedom and adventure," ultimately becoming both "the most successful concept car in history and the most popular sports car in history."

UNKNOWN OR OTHER PROBLEM

- VIN: 1g1yy36u865
- Components: UNKNOWN OR OTHER
- Summary: Shifter assembly does not operate properly. The shifter locks and will not move from park to reverse or neutral or drive. Therefore, the car is inoperable. Many suggestions are to override such lockout mechanism however this creates a major safety issue. The car was at dealership, and they could not resolve problem, nor could they locate a replacement shifter assembly. I believe GM’s lack of providing parts, TSB or other remediations for this well-known issue will result in owners creating an unsafe vehicle and overriding the safety lockout that is not working. Therefore, I strongly would like NHTSA to launch an investigation.

Are you having problems with your 2006 Chevrolet Corvette?
Amos Howe 2024-11-04
This car is amazing! It has plenty of luggage space and the seating area is incredibly comfortable. I love driving it on back road twisties, to work, and even to the grocery store. The steering is so precise and provides plenty of feedback, making it easy to slide through corners at over 1g on the heads up display. The car is perfectly balanced and always in control, especially on the track. The shifter, pedals, and steering wheel are all perfect, and I love that the steering wheel adjusts fore and aft in the Z. The more I learn about this car, the more impressed I am with its tons of R&D.
Blair Marks 2024-10-27
I drive my Z06, 2006 everyday and have been pleasantly surprised by its performance. Despite being a true supercar, it is totally reliable and runs just like any other regular Corvette. The 505 horsepower is absolutely thrilling, like a ride at an amusement park. The only downside is the replacement cost of the supersoft run flat tires. Insurance is not bad considering the car and my perfect driving record. For me, a 40 year old male, it runs around 1800 annually. Overall, I am very happy with my Z06!
Afton Spinka 2024-10-02
This car is the best car I have ever had. It drives just the way I want it to. The only thing I don't like about it is the personal design of the car. Thank you for making such a great car. I love it! I hope you will one day come up with an even better design.
Santiago Bogisich 2024-09-04
Hey there! That's a great car you have!
Berta Grant 2024-09-03
I have a 2006 Corvette 3-LT machine silver with titanium interior. This is my 6th Corvette and I must say, it is by far the best car we have owned. It has a smooth ride with no strange noises and is surprisingly fast. We recently went on the Corvette caravan and were amazed to get 33.5 MPG (unbelievable)!
