I WAS TRAVELING 70MPH ON A 4 LANE HWY. WHEN SUDDENLY MY BRAKES LOCKED UP FOR A SPLIT SECOND CAUSING ME TO VEER INTO THE LEFT LANE. I WAS ABLE TO RECOVER QUICKLY, HOWEVER IT COULD HAVE HAD SERIOUS CONSEQUENCES IF ANOTHER VEHICLE HAD BEEN ALONGSIDE ME. THE SERVICE ACTIVE HANDLING MESSAGE APPEARED ON MY DASH DISENGAGING THE ACTIVE HANDLING AND APPARENTLY THE TRACTION CONTROL SYSTEM. THE MESSAGE STAYED ON THE REMAINDER OF THE TRIP. THE NEXT DAY THE MESSAGE WAS GONE APPARENTLY RESETTING ITSELF. BECAUSE OF THE DANGEROUS SITUATION I TOOK THE CAR TO THE LOCAL CHEV. DEALERSHIP (LEN DUDAS MOTORS, STEVENS POINT, WI) HOWEVER THEY WERE NOT ABLE TO DETERMINE THE CAUSE. THE SENSORS TESTED NORMAL AND THE MECHANIC THEORIZED THE YAW RATE SENSOR BRACKET WAS AT FAULT, BUT HE WAS UNABLE TO FIND A PART. DURING THE PAST WEEK THE PROBLEM RESURFACED 2 MORE TIMES. I'VE RESEARCHED CORVETTE FORUMS ONLINE AND IT APPEARS THAT THIS IS A PROBLEM WITH CORVETTES AND THERE APPEARS TO BE MANY OPINIONS ON HOW TO FIX THE PROBLEM, MOST OF WHICH I DON'T UNDERSTAND BECAUSE I AM NOT A MECHANIC. ALSO IF MY LOCAL CHEVROLET MECHANIC CANNOT FIX THE PROBLEM WHAT CAN I DO. RIGHT NOW I CAN'T DRIVE THE VEHICLE FOR FEAR OF CAUSING AN ACCIDENT. *TR

ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL, TRACTION CONTROL SYSTEM AT DIFFERENT SPEEDS MY TRACTION CONTROL WARNING LIGHT COMES ON FOR NO REASON, AND THE VEHICLE FEELS LIKE ITS TRYING TO ENGAGE THE ABS SYSTEM. IT NOW COMES ON JUST ABUT EVERYTIME I GET I DRIVE MY VEHICLE. I HAVE SINCE LEARNED THAT THIS IS HAPPENING TO THOUSANDS OF CORVETTES AT AN ALARMING RATE. *TR

ACTIVE HANDLING ENGAGES UNDER NORMAL DRIVING CONDITIONS ON MY 2004 CORVETTE. I LEARNED THAT THERE IS A RECALL FOR THIS FOR VEHICLES MFG FROM MARCH 2004 TO JAN 2006 WITH TELESCOPIC AND TILT STEERING WHEELS. MY CAR WAS MFG IN MAY 2004 AND HAS THE TILT /TELESCOPIC STEERING WHEEL. I WAS ALSO TOLD THAT THE RECALL WAS VIN SPECIFIC AND SINCE MY VIN NUMBER WAS NOT LISTED I HAD TO PAY FOR THE REPAIR WHICH COST ME $581AND CHANGE. I DON'T KNOW WHY MY CAR WITH THE SAME PROBLEM AND SAME DEFECTIVE PARTS WAS NOT COVERED. MY UNDERSTANDING IS THE HARNESS IS TO SHORT AND THE TELESCOPIC MOVEMENT CAUSE WEAR IN THE CONNECTOR WHICH CAUSES THE STEERING WHEEL SENSOR TO SHOW AN OPEN CONNECTION TELLING THE COMPUTER TO ACTIVATE THE HANDLING SYSTEM.. MY DEALER SAYS WAS MY PROBLEM AN OPEN SENSOR AND NOT THE CONNECTOR AND CLAIMS THEY DID NOT HAVE THE REPLACED PART TO PROVIDE TO ME...SINCE I TOTALLY LOST CONTROL OF MY CAR BUT WAS FORTUNATE NOT TO HAVE HAD AN ACCIDENT I PLAN ON REPORTING THIS COMPLAINT TO THE GMAC ,THE NEWSPAPERS IF NOT TO AN ATTORNEY TO PLEA THIS CASE FOR REIMBURSEMENT. I SUSPECT PEOPLE ARE BEING RIPPED OFF AND BEING CHARGED FOR A SENSOR REPLACEMENT INSTEAD OF OWNING UP TO THE CONNECTOR ISSUE... *TR
