| This is not about a specific car, rather there have been six reports this week in the corvette forum of owners who had their active handling system lock up all four wheels, pulsing violently and making their car uncontrollable. two of these owners reported this happening at about 40+ mph and had no control of the car as it entered oncoming traffic before coming to a stop. this is a very, very dangerous situation that could very easily take the lives of drivers and pedestrians. *jb | |||
