>Two people he convinced to buy vettes traded them back in within a year of purchase for electrical issues.
Why on earth would you take a bath on a trade-in instead of using the lemon law if there were unfixable electrical issues?
Also - this sounds pretty anecdotal to be honest, long-time corvette owner who follows the forums and I've not seen any widespread complaints of electrical issues with the c8 besides a battery drain issue caused by OTA updates that was resolved.
C7's, and this was just before COVID. They were bought preowned from dealers. One had the entire electrical system shit itself after driving through a puddle and the other kept killing the battery at random.
Given you responded to a quote about the C8 platform redeeming GM - it'd probably pertinent to specify you're talking about literally a completely different car other than the name. The C8 was a ground up redesign.
That being said, the C7 also had no known electrical issues. A certified pre-owned would still be covered under lemon law. "driving through a puddle" sounds like more than a bit of an understatment if it took out the entire electrical system. I have driven my car through many, many rainstorms and had exactly 0 issues. I'm also not clear how he traded in a car with a non-functioning electrical system, no dealer would touch that with a 30 foot pole.
>the other kept killing the battery at random.
That could literally be anything, and again wasn't a widespread issue with the C7 platform or there would've been a recall, just like with the C8.
