Corvette

  • 27,000 miles
The contact owns a 2006 Chevrolet Corvette. While the contact was driving approximately 50 mph making a wide right turn, the "service active handling system" warning indicator displayed on the instrument panel and immediately the rear right wheel locked. The rear of the vehicle began to fishtail to the left; however, the contact then turned the steering wheel towards the left in order to gain control of the vehicle. There was a recall associated with the NHTSA campaign id number (steering: Column). The manufacturer was notified and they informed that the VIN was not included in the recall. The contact experienced the identical failure as mentioned in the recall. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The failure mileage was approximately 27,000.
