My 2008 Chevrolet Corvette just started a new issue that your dept is currently investigating. The "service active handling" came up on the display and the front right brake locked up for a few seconds at highway speed. After pulling over, a concerned driver behind me said that my brake lights had been and still are illuminated the whole time she was behind me (at least 5 miles) and do not go off until I turn the car off. I bought this car the end of March at mall Chevrolet in cherry hill NJ, and my primary local Chevrolet dealer is reedman-toll in langhorne pa. There is nothing listed in the carfax or autocheck history for any recall work done or even any open recalls. This is obviously a quite common issue with serious safety repercussions. I am an active member of the Corvette forums and this is a topic that has been talked about in numerous threads: forums.corvetteforum.com/C6-tech-performance/2336065-service-active-handling-consumer-action.html forums.corvetteforum.com/C6-tech-performance/3234567-service-active-handling-system.html forums.corvetteforum.com/C6-Corvette-general-discussion/3270586-service-active-handling-and-wheel-lockup.html forums.corvetteforum.com/C6-Z06-discussion/3109818-08-Z-brake-lights-stay-on.html forums.corvetteforum.com/C6-tech-performance/3190509-2008-C6-having-rear-brake-light-issues.html if you do a search of the forums you will find many more of the same issues with the same cars.

I was driving on the freeway at night on my way home around 11pm when my low beam lights went dark and would not turn back on.I've checked all the forums about this problem and it is happening a lot, but apparently GM wont include the 2008 vehicles even though ones like mine have the same equipment as earlier models with the same problems. A few days prior, my girlfriend was driving the car, and complained about the same problem, but I just thought it was because she didn't know how to operate the car. Once I get it fixed, how do I know the lights wont mysteriously go off again?! I'm very disappointed in all the electrical problems with this vehicle, and this is the last straw. (after only 38K miles the fuel tank gauge stopped working. At 60K miles the car was having issues with overheating because the fans wouldn't turn on. At 75K miles a clunking noise started coming from the differential. It's a stock car mind you. And now at 85K miles 2008, the headlights wont turn on. GM simply won't stand behind the car, and so I've been left to figure it out on my own. So much for buying my dream car. It seems more like a nightmare.)
