Corvette C7 Stingray LT1 engine and TR-6070 transmission problems and recalls -a real 2fer?

Now, this is a real twofer: buy Corvette C7 Stingray and lose not just transmission but engine as well... Except for several blown engines and transmissions, there is absolutely zip from GM regarding these issues...
