2006 Corvette Coupe Z51
Squealing noise when apply the brakes

Cars & Transport

I bought a 2006 Z51 corvette in Dec. 2005. After I bought the automobile it had been to get a recreational vehicle. I just generate the vehicle on weekend and on holidays. I've less then 10,000 kilometers about the vehicle at the moment.

Our problem may be the following:

After I bought the automobile I observed a squealing sound after I might utilize the wheels. After I named the seller regarding this sound they explained it had been regular for that kind of wheels, high end. Being a 1st-time operator of the vette I got their term for this. The sound has since got worse and so I got it to some Chevrolet seller plus they advised me that there's a message from Chevrolet concerning the breaks. It says the kinds of brakes I've on my vette were placed on 2005 & 2006 and due to the squealing they improved the 2007 Z51 wheels. The support division explained the one thing they might do is support the wheels by utilizing Silicon Brake Lubricant, ACDelco G/D 89021537 that will be the directions in the message. They maintained my vehicle on Friday June 22 and by Sitting. Day June 23 these were squealing again. After I named the seller today August 25 to see them the breaks were squealing again the support author I've been coping with simply stated he was not amazed. The seller also says the only method to repair the problem totally would be to substitute the wheels ($700.00 - $750.00) which this price could be my obligation. The seller offered me several to contact and consult with Chevrolet 800-222-1020. I had been in touch with Erica San Juan & Thalia Maldonado on 6/21/07-6/22/07 with Joan Francis and Kim Thomas on 6/25/07. All of them explained that it had been my issue which the update wouldn't be included in Chevrolet. I requested to be place in connection with the neighborhood GM consultant plus they explained there isnot one, that we understand isn't accurate.

I'm when the problem was acknowledged following the wheels were mounted on 2005 & 2006 product corvettes and also the update was produced in 2007 to fix the issue, they ought to update the 2005 & 2006 to be able to correct the problem the same as they did for 2007.

I'd appreciate any assist in the way or any suggestions about what direction to go. Like a customer I can't comprehend purchasing a car for $60,000.00 and needing to generate it with squealing wheels.

I will be attained 24/7 as of this quantity 713-858-6225.

Thanks
