What is wrong
On certain 2005-2006 chevrolet corvettes equipped with painted roofs, the adhesive between the roof panel and the frame may separate.
The risk
If there is a complete separation, the roof panel may detach from the vehicle and it could strike another vehicle and cause injury and property damage.
The fix
Dealers will inspect vehicles free of charge for potential roof panel-to- frame separation and add the specified adhesive foam or replace the roof with one having adhesive foam. The recall began on october 19, 2006. Owners may contact chevrolet at 1-[removed].
