Chevrolet Corvette can leak fuel while refueling, risking fire

NHTSA campaign 25V536000 · Reported 2025-08-21 · General Motors, LLC

critical How serious is it? About this label

This is serious because spilled fuel reaching hot engine or exhaust parts can cause a fire; GM does not tell owners to stop driving or to park outside, but fill the tank slowly and avoid topping off until the shield is installed.

What's wrong, in plain English

When you fill up, extra gas can splash and collect in the pocket around the fuel filler door instead of going into the tank. On these cars, that spilled fuel can run out and reach hot engine or exhaust parts, which can start a fire. It affects Corvettes built with a particular left-side radiator and fan setup. The fix is a shield the dealer installs to steer any spilled gas away from the hot parts.

What you should do

1. Check your VIN at nhtsa.gov/recalls to confirm your Corvette is included in recall 25V536000 (GM's number N252514930).
2. Contact your Chevrolet dealer, or Chevrolet customer service at 1-800-222-1020, to schedule the repair.
3. Have the dealer install the fuel-diverting shield — it is free of charge.
