Getting your car serviced at a dealership can sometimes come with frustrating complications, especially if you own a performance car. Not only do some customers think they’re getting fleeced, in this day and age of dashcam popularity we have countless examples of techs hot dogging it in customer cars supposedly to ensure they’re working properly. If that’s not enough to scare you, we’ve seen escalating thefts at dealerships overnight, including vehicles stolen out of the service area. That leads into this story of a dealer service department supposedly stealing a customer’s Corvette from his driveway, and boy is it quite the tale.

First off, this story comes to us via the guy’s friend, a guy on Corvette Forum who goes by the handle Z0Sick6, so take that into account. He said his buddy took his Corvette to a local Chevy dealership, telling them specifically to lock the car inside since they had to keep it overnight. While we’ve seen thieves break into the service department and clear it out, he was right to be concerned about it sitting outside since it would be an even more inviting target.
