Very weird!
I was driving around in competitive driving mode and decided to stop at the local chevy because I saw a silver Z06 just like mine but with chrome wheels. So I pull in and shut my car off and take a look (nice clean car by the way) I go back to my car and start it and BAM! Get a message on my dic Service ABS/Active Handeling/Traction Control (pressing the T/C button did nothing). So I shut it down and turn it back on and its still there...So i drive home and shut it off once again and restart it...and It back to normal! What could this be...the system is going bad of possible just a computer glitch?
Thanks
Dan

Probably just a computer fart...bad gas, you know! 
I havn't gotten the service TC/AH message, but I have gotten the AH/TC warming up message. Don't know why either, because I had been driving for a while and the car was at operating temp. Just one of those things are cars do to make sure we are paying them all the attention they think they deserve!

It's obvious that your car hates dealerships as much as most Vette owners and was simply trying to convey that message.

Had the same thing happen to me yesterday. About 3 minutes after I started the car, but while I was rolling. First time. Also the T/C light went on too. That's how I noticed it.
Few more minutes of driving and it went off. By itself.
Will now keep an eye on it.

Take it in now and have it checked. The dealer can look in your code history and get a clue as to what caused it. It happened to me several times and finally got it fixed after many attempts and replacement parts (all under warranty). Mine ended up being the ABS pump. Many have had to have all grounds cleaned, sensors replaced, etc. Start a file on that badboy with your dealer, now. Then if they aren't able to get it fixed, you can always come back under the same file, without paying the minimum again, and have it worked on. As long as mine took to find, and the number if parts replaced, mine would have cost thousands, I'm sure, without my extended warranty. Best of luck to you.

Could just be a hiccup in the computer. Just keep an eye on it and see if it comes back on.
