What owners wrote
I have a brand new 2004 corvette 1 1/2 months old with only 1341 miles on it. While driving home in rush hour dallas traffic on a very busy fast moving road, my engine died in the middle of the road. I could not restart the car & was in a very serious situation risking the possibility of being rear ended. Luckily a policeman came by and parked behind me to shield me from the traffic. If I had been on the freeway, I could have been killed.
