The timing belt came off once. and steering column security lock made my steering wheel lock. was a recall, so car was picked up and serviced at no cost.
This car is everything I thought it would be and then some. I have owned many Corvettes and the C5 design is a total blast to drive from its styling to the interior the speed the whole package Chevrolet did right by the new corvette.
I don't believe the Corvette LS1 V-8 engine has a timing belt...
The LS1 engine does not use a timing belt. I'm not sure what this guy is talking about.
My 1997 C5 Corvette has been a great car to drive. Aside from the name, it's nothing like the 1976 L48 Stingray I used to own, although I miss it at times. I'm a stock kind of person when it comes to Corvettes, so I have made little or no modifications to this C5. I still can't believe how nice it drives, suspension wise, as opposed to my 1976 Stingray. That was probably one of the most noticeable & significant improvements from the 1996 Corvette. Keep the wave alive!
I think that he's referring to a pulley-belt coming off and not a non-existent timing belt.

Timing belt?? On an LS1??? People buy LS1's to avoid timing belts.
