2012 Chevy Corvette rear hatch recall, Recall: 2011-2012 Chevrolet Corvettes for bad rear hatch hinges. The National Highway Transportation Safety Administration (NHTSA) has announced a recall for 2011 and 2012 model year Chevrolet Corvettes. The sport coupes have rear hatches that can separate during a collision and cause further injuries.
According to NHTSA, the problem stems from faulty hinges, which may not be able to bear the weight of the sport car's rear hatch. These rear hatch hinges, which fail to meet federal safety standards, may have been installed in about 5,755 Chevy Corvettes from January to September of this year.
General Motors is currently working to identify which Corvettes are involved in this latest recall. The company will contact owners affected by this recall to bring their cars to local dealerships where mechanics will replace both rear hatch hinges free of charge.
For more information, consumers can contact Chevrolet (800-630-2438) or NHTSA (toll-free: 888-327-4236) or visit the Safer Car website: www.SaferCar.gov.
