Condition
On certain 2005-2006 Chevrolet Corvette vehicles, the painted roof panel may separate from its frame in some areas if it is exposed to stresses along with high temperature and humidity.

Correction
Dealers are to apply adhesive foam to ensure proper adhesion, or in a small number of vehicles, replace the roof panel.

3 up from the bottom roof pannel not an optional equipment for the z06
and the roof is not glued down, the roof pannel is. the actual body structure is still on the car just the sheet metal roof that gets glued down.
thats… really… NOT much better.
Who cares, a part on a new car delaminated for a guy on a web board. So they fix it. Its still the best performance car for the price in the world. Id kill for that car.
not to mention all the leaking roofs. in all honesty if you paid 75k for a car would you want to be worrying about your roof leaking or delaminating?
Like any “new” there is going to be some issues. I would believe however that this is an isolated incident considering this is the only time I have ever heard about somthing like this happenning.
It’s not isolated - read the thread.
Roofs are flying off other Z06’s?
