In the process of manufacturing a complex machine like the 2020 Corvette, Chevrolet knows there are going to be some various issues that come up and the good news is that most can usually be solved very quickly. Some of the minor issues we’ve heard about so far are things like exterior trim pieces screwed incorrectly or a bolt that is too long (and chips the paint when fully opening the doors).

YouTube is one of the more conflicting parts of life in modern times.
