Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: 2006 corvette coupe top defect report. the bonding of the shell skin to the frame of my corvettes portable painted top came loose and nearly caused an accident on the highway. i was able to grab the shell and bring the car to a controlled stop. the dealer told me my car was not on the recall list, but they will fix the problem. i also have a clear tented top that may have the same defect, but they have not responded to my request to determine if the defect exists in the clear tented top. i do not want to cause an accident or a death on the highway, so i will drive the car only on low speed roads until the chevy dealer gets me an answer on the condition of this clear top. gm should go on report since gm failed to realize the top assembly bonding defect extends into their later built cars. date of purchase 2/2006. *nm
