The contact owns a 2008 Chevrolet Corvette. While driving low speeds, the brakes felt as if they applied automatically. The service anti-lock brakes, service active handling, and service traction control warning indicators illuminated. The dealer diagnosed that the rear passenger hub assembly sensor was defective and the entire assembly needed to be replaced. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 90,000.
On this day, I was driving on the highway going about 100 mph (german autobahn) when the vehicle for no apparent reason decided to lock up the brakes. I also lost power steering. Luckily there were no cars around me. The "service active handling" sensor has been on and off since then and I am looking at getting it looked at tomorrow. I have just read forums of other 2005-2008 Corvettes having this similar problem. Is there anything I can do about getting this car serviced? I am in germany and I have yet to find a Corvette mechanic. Would appreciate any advice. Thank you.
Service active handlibg system light came on after having new brakes installed. Had the brake pedal sensor replaced. After about 1 month the light started coming back on and shifter started locking up in park. After 1 month had shifter assyembly replaced, started to lock up again, they replaced shifter assembly saying it was a bad part. After about another month the shifter started locking up again. Going to have them check the braking sensor again as they forgot to check the other day forgeting they replaced it. I am 60, going to radiation appointments and this is very unacceptable for the calliber of a Corvette. This needs to be a recall.
