2006 CHEVROLET CORVETTE
This model year
What the record shows
The 2006 Chevrolet Corvette is a two-seater, and the 47th model year of a nameplate NHTSA records from 1960 to 2027.
The EPA rated three configurations: engines from 6-litre eight-cylinder to 7-litre eight-cylinder, rear-wheel drive only, two transmissions and running on premium gasoline.
Combined fuel economy ranges from 18 to 19 mpg depending on which one you have.
The federal record holds 365 owner complaints, 2 safety recalls and 720 service bulletins for it.
Counts are reports, not rates. A complaint is something an owner chose to file; it is unverified and unadjusted for how many of these cars were sold, so the useful comparison is against other model years of the same car. Recalls and investigations carry more weight because a manufacturer or regulator acted on them.
Reading this report
Complaint counts are reports filed with NHTSA, not failure rates. A common model collects more of them than a rare one that breaks more often.
