AS I LEFT THE GROCERY STORE I STARTED TO HEAD HOME WHEN THE 11 CORVETTE GS SENT A MESSAGE TO THE DIC ON THE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER, IT SAID TO SERVICE ACTIVE HANDLING, THE PROBLEM IS IT LOCKS UP THE FRONT BRAKES, WHILE THIS MAY NOT SOUND TOO SERIOUS AT LOW SPEEDS, IMAGINE PULLING OUT INTO TRAFFIC AND THE BRAKES LOCK UP ON YOUR CAR. IT OCCURS PULLING ONTO GRASS OR LOOSE GRAVEL ALSO, ESPECIALLY IN TURNS. I HAVE TO TURN THE CAR OFF AND RESTART IT FOR IT TO MOVE AGAIN. MY WIFE STARTED READING THE HUNDREDS OF COMPLAINTS ON SERVICE THE ACTIVE HANDLING ON THE CORVETTE FORUMS AND WHAT IT HAS DONE TO THE VEHICLES FROM PEOPLE THAT HAD ISSUES WITH THERE VEHICLES WHEN THE SERVICE ACTIVE HANDLING MESSAGE APPEARED ON THERE (DIC) DIGITAL INFORMATION CENTER THAT SHE NO LONGER RIDES IN THE CAR WITH ME. THIS VEHICLE HAS SEEN MORE DEALER SERVICE THAN ANY OTHER VEHICLE THAT I HAVE OWNED. *TR
