Not precisely; every C7 received a recall, which is a simple software fix. They're not taking them back.

ETA: yes just C7s.

Yes, I think they were mailed to every address they had on record. I purchased a used '14 Z51, and still got one.

Yes every darn one of us (brand new owners not sure about), There never seems to be any rhyme or reason as to who gets these letters first, or in any order.

WTF??!!
Based on the posts, sounds like it should be a 30-60 minute fix.

UGH.
Need to find another service place in San Diego.
Courtesy Chevrolet isn't very courteous.

Try Bob Stall in Mesa if you live near Courtesy. At least he sells more Corvettes than all the other SD dealers put together. Hopefully he services them well also.

I received the recall as well but am reluctant to take my care in because I have a custom tune. Will the update over write the custom tune?? If it does my car wont be drive-able and will be stuck at the dealer until my tuner can reload the PCM. Anyone with custom tunes get this update?
