GM Recall for Airbag Malfunction Light Affects Multiple Vehicles Including the 2021 Corvette
Thanks to a member of the Corvette Forum, we have learned that GM will be issuing a recall for certain 2021 model year vehicles, and the list includes the Chevrolet Corvette. GM has alerted the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration to the software defect, though the NHTSA still doesn’t have any official information yet.
Please note that the recall only affects 2021 models and as it’s a software-related event, those owners will hopefully be able to take care of it via an Over the Air update.

Whenever I hear the exhaust note of a Corvette under heavy acceleration, I have a tribal reaction which I refer to as “the song of my people.” There is nothing that unites Corvette enthusiasts more than the sound of a Corvette’s V8 engine doing what it was made to do.
Texas-based tuning shop Hennessey Performance knows a thing or two about making Chevy’s Corvette sound better and it usually comes with a hefty upgrade in performance.

Following Plant Closures, GM Cancels the Final Allocation Cycle for 2021 Corvette Orders
With the Corvette Assembly Plant shut down over parts shortages in May and June, we’ve been waiting to see how General Motors was going to handle the remaining allocations for the 2021 Corvette model year.

Dealers were expecting one more allocation cycle in June, and now GM has decided to call the current model year a wrap and is sticking with its plans to start the 2022 model year in early September.
