Q: Issues with the electronics that become unresponsive

asked by on May 23, 2016

Ever since I purchased this 2006 Chevrolet Corvette C6 Z06, I've been having a lot of issues. The car has 30,000 miles on it. Although the engine is new, the car has major issues with the electronics. At times it gets completely unresponsive to the point where I cannot turn it back on or open the door. Do you have any ideas how to fix the car so it runs without these problems?
