Are there any specifics on the fuel leak? I know there are 2 tanks and 2 pumps etc, etc, but dang how hard is it to keep gas inside the tanks, lines etc? I put this link here mostly in jest but....

Parts for many cars are hard to get. Same issue on a headliner for my 2020 mustang.
I do understand your neigbors are pretty happy you were not able to go topless this year

Procurement of parts for vehicle assembly is separate from procurement of parts for vehicle service and handled by the SPO Division of GM. The assembly plant worries about its problems and SPO worries about its problems.

I figured as much Bill. I'm just speaking out of anger and frustration at GM for having had this happen for the second time in less than 3 years and 5500 miles of ownership.

My wife and i just returned from a vacation in the Arkansas mountains, our only vacation this year. We had to take our 2014 Honda instead of our 2019 Corvette. It took GM 5 1/2 weeks to deliver the parts the first time this happened 2 years ago. This time they're saying it will be several months. Its hard not to be frustrated.

You know Bill, i've been thinking and im going to have to retract my retraction. I've always respected your very informative posts but my original comment was aimed at GM as a whole and not the BG assembly plant. As the parent organization to all of their divisions, i feel it is very much GM's fault (along with the covid shortages) that they are not better stocked with replacement parts, especially for a car that was made for 6 years and just ended its run in 2019. They continue to push a most aggressive advertising campaign first with the Stingray, then the new Z06, and now leaking tidbits about the GS/Eray, ZR1, and Zora. I wonder how many cars they would sell if they advertised " If you buy our cars, we cant fix them".

Ive been a Vette fan for years, first with a 67, then a 99, and now my 19. I love my car. I just would like to be able to drive it. So i guess we can agree to disagree.

My dealer called last week and my parts have come in. Im just waiting for then to have an opening in their schedule now.
Maybe this is a sign that parts production is ramping up and you'll hear something soon on your needed parts.
