Consumer Description

2006 CORVETTE HAD THE ROOF RECALL (REF. NHTSA CAMPAIGN ID# 06V181000) DONE ON 6/7/07. I RETURNED VEHICLE FOR RECHECK OF RECALL ON 11/1/07 AS THE ROOF DID HAVE SOME NOTICEABLE CREAK NOISES. THE DEALER REPORTED THE ROOF WAS NOT LOOSE AND LUBRICATED THE WEATHER STRIPS. ON 6/12/09, GETTING ON THE HIGHWAY, MY WIFE NOTICED WIND NOISE AND THEN SUDDENLY THE ROOF PANEL FLEW OFF AND OVER A PICK UP TRUCK THAT WAS FOLLOWING HER. SHE WAS GOING APPROXIMATELY 50 MPH AT THE TIME THE ROOF PANEL BLEW OFF. THE FRAME WHICH HOLDS THE REMOVABLE ROOF WAS IN PLACE IN THE VEHICLE. THE RECALL FOAM WAS IN PLACE IN THE FRAME. THE VEHICLE HAS BEEN TAKEN BACK TO THE SERVICING DEALER AND THE ENTIRE REMOVABLE ROOF HAS BEEN REPLACED. THE DEALER KEPT THE OLD FRAME. *TR
