 Description of the problemIn may 2009 i made a road trip from my home in ny to tampa fl, when i left ny my 2007 zo6 corvette had 1500 miles during the trip i was not involved in any accidents, when i arrived in fl the next day (drove straight through) i noticed that both front headlamp lenses had numerous tiny cracks in them, i called a local gm dealer, i explained the situation, they stated " i must have hit something" i was livid i then called my dealer in ny they said not to worry and would look at the vehicle when i returned. I arrived home on a saturday night 1st thing monday i called beck chevrolet and spoke to the service manager, he said bring it over ,i drove car over immediately, only the service manager looked at car, no 1 else saw my vehicle the service manager stated there was no chemical on my headlights, he said there was a bulletin from gm and they could do nothing, it was a mysterious chemical that caused this problem, i then called gm and asked for a review, when i called gm back several days later they said they spoke to a mechanic @ beck chevy who stated " that he inspected my car and there was a chemical on my head lights, this is no way true i was present during the entire time 20 min car was @ dealer and only the service manager looked at vehicle. I then called gm again and wrote a few letter explaining what happen, they said chemicals used by auto detailers causes headlights to crack, i brought up the point that beck chevy had an outside person detailing my vehicle when i picked it up, but they couldn't tell me why and what chemicals he used ( i personally saw this person detail my vehicle), i gotten no other response from gm. I believe that the lenses cracked because of heat from the long drive to fl from ny with the daytimerunning lights and have the lights on throughout the night, lights were on for approximately 20 hours straight. On the way home i turned the daytime lights off but turned them on at night, as of today my corvette ( baby ) has 4,013 miles.
