C7 Factory Paint and Infotainment System Issues
I received my Corvette a little over a week ago. Ordered from a local dealer (who I am very happy with) and got exactly what I wanted (torch red, 3LT, Z51, NPP, and mag ride). Traded in a 2010 red convertible to get it. I was at the dealer when the white shipping cover was taken off and the vehicle had 2 miles on it when I drove it home that afternoon.
Issues:
1. Infotainment screen going haywire intermittently (I see this is common)
2. Two areas on the hood with eraser sized touchup FROM THE FACTORY
3. Major hatch painting issues (edge that looks like its been hit with a grinder, paint dripping or overspray onto the plastic, chipping paint)
4. Issues with the hatch plastic interior itself
5. Chipping paint between the bumper and drivers quarter panel
6. Plastic piece bowed and hanging down behind passengers side tire
7. Chips and dings in the black painted wheels
At first I thought I was just being picky finding things. Then they started to add up. When I took the car to the dealership today they said to fix all the issues they would have to repaint the hood, hatch, and rear bumper. They were shocked at the issues. Also the entire dash will have to be pulled and the screen/unit replaced. They would have been willing to start fixing the car today but suggest I call Chevy customer service or Bowling Green to try and escalate this. Everyone who saw the car said they wouldn't be happy at all with this and would not want the brand new car repainted by the dealership body shop. Looking for any helpful advice.
