“I bought this used Corvette back in the summer of 2015. After I purchased the car I noticed vibration problem at various speeds above 60 miles per hour. The steering wheel was not only shaking all over the place. The car was physically vibrating as I was driving down the interstate highway. I couldn't believe it because it only had 1289 miles on it. I noticed that the vehicle had a vibration problem early on and was checked at 570 miles at steve schmitt chevy but never saw it again. Thought issue was fixed. …”
