I have a fuel leak coming from right behind the fuel filter towards the top of the passenger fuel tank. This is creating a fuel vapor smell and a safety hazard .

I have a message on my dashboard stating "service steering column lock". This message triggers a fuel shutoff at 2 MPH. Luckily this happened to me as I was pulling out of my driveway. I dread to imagine the consequences of this happening if I had been driving at speed on a highway or busy street.

While filling my 2000 c5 corvette with gas, there was a significant fuel leak. Loss of fuel was from the driver side and was noticed gushing out from below the car forming a small pool of gas on the ground. Leaking stopped after about one minute. Fortunately, there was no fire involved. Still trying to figure out how to handle.

1) steering column lock issue 2) fuel cut off ** was driving with my 12 year old daughter . Stopped for gas 65 miles from home and at 11pm. After getting gas I went to start car would not turn over / start. After several tries it finally started but information center above steering column said "service steering column lock" and would not allow me to drive more than 2 MPH before shutting off fuel and killing the motor from running. Had corvette towed to my office. Finally got home at 2:30 am. Called chevy dealer, was told that it had a recall that pertained to the problem , recall done in 2007 and that even though it was the same problem the chevy dealer would not fix it again even though I told them the recall had not been completed because the steering lock plate was still installed and the recall specifically stated the dealer was to remove the steering lock plate. Said nothing they could do and estimated it to be $900 to $1200 to fix. Said to call recall center which said "tuff luck" car still not running. I don't know why they said the recall fixed the problem just to have the same problem and say " I " have to pay to fix this time even though it is the same problem as before the recall ? Are they kidding me ? Help !!!
