Chevrolet is recalling 2025 Corvettes with a software error that may cause rear turn signals to fail, increasing crash risk. Owners must update software via dealer or OTA by May 2026.
The driver may be unaware that the turn signal is not working, increasing the risk of a crash.
Chevrolet is recalling certain 2025 and 2026 Corvettes due to a software error that could cause rear turn signals to stop working. This increases crash risk because drivers might not notice a malfunctioning turn signal.
A software error prevents the vehicle from detecting if a rear turn signal light is not working. This means drivers might not realize their turn signal is malfunctioning, potentially causing a crash when changing lanes or turning.
Owners of 2025 and 2026 Chevrolet Corvettes with specific trim levels are affected. Drivers using these vehicles without the software update are at risk of crashes due to undetected turn signal failures.
