Several times while I am driving the front tires will lock up, making my car turn sharply either to the left or the right, or when I am making turns, this brings me to a complete stop. The computer tells me to service the active handling system, well I looked into it and GM had a recall on this, the service bulletin number is tsb-06-02-35-002B. I contacted GM and they said that the recall on my vehicle was accomplished, well, (if it was) it is not working as it was intended to work. I cannot drive this vehicle because it is unsafe !!! do you think GM has said this was completed, but wasn't!! I do not want to tamper with my car, because if it was not corrected I would need proof, is there somewhere I can go to see if this sb was in fact completed? GM said to take it to a dealer, I called the dealer, but they we not aware of any problems like this, so I sure don't want to go back to them, just to have them charge $ me for something that they said that they have accomplished already, or if it was accomplished it did not correct the problem. Can you help, because I can not put the vehicle on the road, and take the chance of hurting someone!!

On May 2010 I received a safety recall notice #10118 for my 2005 Chevy Corvette, that there was a problem with the active handling system. I brought it to the Chevy dealer and they put a plastic clip on a wire connection. Recently the service active in may ohandling system light will appear and the brakes will apply by themselves and the car does a involuntary nose dive. I shut the car off and it might not happen again for 2 more weeks or so. I contacted Chevy with my problem and spoke to [xxx] @ 866-790-5600 [xxx] he told me they needed to take the car to ed morse Chevrolet and have it checked out at my expense.

I was driving at approximately 20mph leaving my house when the active handling light came on along with ABS lights. My foot was on the gas and in first gear. Suddenly the breaks apply by themselves causing the car to veer left. At this point I could not control my steering wheel to correct the problem. This happens randomly and I can not duplicate the problem. It is very dangerous. I am worried if this happens at high speeds, a very bad accident can occur. This first occurred on 08/03/11. It happened for about 5 minutes when I left my house. I had to turn off all active handling and traction control for this to stop. I drove fine the rest of the day with it off. It did not happen again for a couple of weeks. Around 08/19/11, it happened again. This time at a best buy parking lot traveling at 10mph. I immediately contacted the maita Chevrolet dealership in elk grove, ca and took the car in the next day. I took the car in and they could not duplicate the problem. They said that there is nothing wrong with the car. I told them that it is not normal to drive the car and suddenly the brakes apply by themselves and veers to the left. They said there is nothing that they can do because they could not replicate the problem. I am worried that if this happens on the freeway while I am driving it can be a very dangerous situation for everyone. I am not sure what I can do but I know it is a safety issue.

I was driving my 2005 Corvette in traffic and realized I need to be in the next line to make the next turn. I was stopped at a red light and there was no traffic in the lane next to me, so I turned the wheel sharply to the right and gave it a liitle gas. As I was straightening out the car shook violenlty, it felt like all four brakes where locking up and releasing randomly. I was able to pull over and come to a complete stop, but the car was still shaking. The active handling active was on the info center. I shut the car off and restarted it and everything was fine again. I took the car to the Chevy dealership and they did something with steering wheel position sensor.

Initially car was intermittently not starting. Dic indicator stated steering wheel was "locked". on March 11, 2011, I was driving through a parking lot the steering wheel locked up while I was driving the vehicle. Upon my research 1997-2004 models were recalled for this issue. Models 2006-2010 the feature - "steering column lock" was not installed on the cars. My concern is 2005 models have not been recalled and could cause possible deaths of owners and or other members of the public.

I just entered the freeway and traffic was slow 40 to 45 mph. I moved from far right to center lane then from center to left lane. When I moved from center to left I was traveling between 45 and 50 mph when the rear of the car began to slide out of control. When I but did not understand why as the roads where dry and clear. As I tried to regain control the car did not respond and continued to slide completely out of control 180 degree and slid sideways into a wall of plowed ice and snow in the left shoulder and flip on its roof. The loss of understanding of how this happened has given me much anguish as I know I had the traction control handling on, until I found out about a recall having to do with the steering and handling a few months later.

Service column lock (scl) code on dic occurs with high frequency on 2005 Chevrolet Corvette MN06 when attempting to crank engine - car will not crank, other electrical components function. Car flatbed-towed on at least 4 occasions. Car was serviced numerous times, by 3 different Chevrolet dealers, for separate scl incidents occurring 2006-2010; most recent scl incidents occurred 6/2010 & 11/2010; car towed to Chevrolet dealer in 6/2010 to a Chevy dealer that claims to be Corvette service center of South. Dealer replaced scl part but only after the car experienced scl failure on their lot when I attempted to take delivery after they certified the car was fine. Car experienced scl on their lot and was pushed into service bay. Scl post-repair failure occurred 11/2010 following dealer's replacement/repair of scl part. Car towed to private auto repair shop where scl post-repair failure was discovered (hint: Tapping the column released the scl): BCM also required replacement - car would not communicate with bi-directional tool. Scl issue exists with many 2005 Corvettes (refer to Corvette forums); scl was a notorious problem for C5 production years -refer to NHTSA recall campaign number : 04V060000. GM issued scl recall for C5, but not yet for C6. Multiple C6 owners report experiencing scl failure & post-repair failure -- GM refuses to acknowledge this is a GM problem - owners are paying for the repairs and there is no guarantee that the new scl part will function and no guarantee that the steering column will not lock during operation. GM refuses to recognize that they have a serious safety and defective engineering issue with the 2005 C6 production model.
