Attention needed!! active handling system very dangerous failure mode!!! driving at 50mph the active handling system suddenly (and very violently) locks up both front and rear passenger wheels, bringing the car to a halt while throwing the vehicle to the left lane. The dealership said since they couldn't duplicate the event or find a computer code to verify, then can do nothing to help me. This is a very dangerous failure mode!! very easily I could have killed a pedestrian / motorcyclist in the lane to my left!!!
