Interesting story but again. My issue is believing it actually is locking while the car is moving. If this was true you can bet the big news TV shows would gladly document the story to tackle GM.

I think it would be easy to prove this happens. The C5 can tell you how fast the car goes before having an accident. It has sensors and computer logs. Yet it can't report a locked column as the car is moving?
