| Investigation ea09-002 there was no accident. the service active handling system came on. took car to richard hibbard chevrolet (now out of business as a chevrolet dealer) in claremont california. the dealer informed me that there was a problem with the rotation sensor (part no. 15231656, sensor 6.522) and said that the part had to be replaced. the sensor was replaced 05/11/2011 at a cost of $326.12. there has been no additional problems. however, the same problem was covered under warranty repair for earlier cars. | |||

| While pulling/turning into traffic on a busy street.. my car's traction control system malfunctioned, and i was unable to accelerate, thus almost causing an accident. since the incident.. i have experienced this issue a number of times. it can be very dangerous, as i now have to consider my car unstable while turning. | |||

| This problem started soon after i purchased the car used. i have replaced the brake switch and added four inches of wire to the wiring harness to the telescopic steering wheel. i recently replaced the brake pads and the service handling system soon comes on. there is no recalls on my car and have been to the dealer about the problem and they can't figure it out. i am reading this could be a serious problem and can cause an accident. i have been to the corvette forum and tried numerous things to fix this. i am currently checking electrical grounds to see if that helps. | |||

| Driving along and car starts swerving and brakes seem to apply, then i notice service abs, service traction control and service active handling is on. this has been happening frequently for several months and now getting worse. have tightened all connections bu internally tightening the poor loose connectors and rerouting the wires to the swps to give more length. now lights are on and will not go out, shows no codes with a scan reader. this is an 07 and i do not see that as a recall even though it is the same problems as the 05 & 06. | |||

| Service active handling system error appears on the dash and a bell sounds for no apparent reason. this has happened over 6 times in the 4 years that we have owned this 2007 corvette starting in sept 08. we have taken it in 6 times to be fixed. they say the computer shows code c0710 and they replaced the steering wheel position e7690 sensor five times. the last time this happened, the steering wheel jerked from side to side and scared the crapd out of my wife. fortunately she was driving at a low speed. they said they replaced the steering wheel position sensor connector retaining clip. come to find out, there has been a gm service bulliten #060235002b out on this condition since oct 19, 2007. we were never informed of this fact. we found out by going to the corvette forum after this last incident. they also said the fix was not covered under my major guard gm protection plan, but they didn't charge me because i had brought it to them 6 times for the same problem. how magnanamous of them! this needs to be a recall to protect peoples lives. i just hope what they did fixes it, but i am doubtful! here is the link to the corvette forun on this problem: http://forums.corvetteforum.com/c6-tech-performance/2336065-service-active-handling-consumer-action.html updated 03/15/11 *bf | |||

| This complaint is regarding a stock 2007 chevrolet corvette, upon starting the vehicle and slowly driving down a road the car lost control and went left barely missing a curb. the reason for this complaint is that the traction control system or stability seems as though its off and says in the computer that its turning on after the incident happened to me about 3 times this last one causing considerable damage to my underbody. something needs to be checked in the computer of the car or any electrical components. this issue does not happen all the time, therefore there was alot of time inbetween each incident, i don't know if this is a defect but it is certainly not good if other people are having these problems as i am. *tr | |||
