NHTSA Complaint #10837331 — 2007 CHEVROLET CORVETTE

I HAVE A 2007 CORVETTE Z06 WITH 43 K MILES ON IT. I DECIDED TO HAVE SOMEONE CHECK MY CAR BECAUSE OF THE ARTICLE I HAD READ ABOUT THE LS7 ENGINES HAVING VALVE GUIDE ISSUES. I WAS SURE THAT THEY WOULD BE OK BECAUSE THE CORVETTE SITES SAY IT IS ONLY A MINOR AMOUNT OF HEADS THAT WERE MACHINED IN CORRECTLY. I WAS HAVING OTHER WORK DONE TO MY CORVETTE SO LOOKED FOR A PLACE THAT DOES MOSTLY CORVETTE SERVICE, I TOLD THE MECHANIC TO CHECK MY VALVE GUIDES WHILE HE WAS DOING THE OTHER WORK I WAS SURE THEY WOULD OF BEEN OK. UPON MY SURPRISE HE SENT ME VIDEOS SHOWING ME THAT THEY WERE NOT OK AND NEEDED TO BE REPAIRED. IT COST ME $1,950.00 TO HAVE MY HEADS CNC AND NEW VALVE GUIDES AND SPRINGS INSTALLED THE OLD ONES WERE VERY BAD I HAVE VIDEOS SHOWING THIS, THE CAR WAS RUNNING WITH LITTLE VALVE NOISE AT THE TIME BUT WERE STILL BAD MECHANIC WOULD NOT EVEN DYNO THE CAR AFTER SEEING HOW BAD THEY WERE.
