I have just learned that my car uses the same bose amplifiers that the 1991 q45 and 1991 acura legend have. they have both been recalled due to fire hazard identified by a popping or hissing noise, both of which occurred on 2 of my 4 amps so far. if these amps are manufactured by the same company, shouldn't the corvette amps be recalled also ?*ak

Bose speakers overheat and fill passenger compartment with smoke. these amplifiers are identical to the accura amplifiers which were recalled by the manufacturer.*ak

Car caught on fire due to electrical system and burned the whole car up.*ak

Driver side seat belt is unusable as it is locked in the retracted position. i was interested to note that a recall was issued concerning this problem. when i purchased the car used (3 yrs. old) at a chevrolet dealership they made no mention of the recall nor had they corrected it. the other issue is related to the rear drivetrain. under heavy acceleration, the car has a tendency to have the back end slide sideways when the auto transmission shifts from 1st to 2nd.

Generator failure causes vehicle to stop dead on the road.

Alternator failed 4 times.
