VERY MAD!!! Need help!!
Ok, here is the problem. Whenever I turn the wheel over to the left (ONLY when parking or making 90 degree turns) it trips my Active Handling, ABS, and Traction Control lights. I dropped my car off Tuesday and just got it back today. When I was turning the wheel to pull the car out of the parking lot, it tripped again! FOUR FREAKING DAYS :banghead:, and they didn't fix it. Does anyone know what could cause this problem? Remember, it only happens when the steering wheel goes about 60% to the left or more. NEVER has happened while driving or anything else. Any help would be appreciated!

What explanation did they give you for keeping the car for 4 days? They could have checked it in a matter of minutes. All it took was fitting it into the schedule with other cars in for service. That means the next day at the latest. Maybe you car got the fresh air and sunshine treatment. I have had major repairs done in less time than that.

They said that this problem was "giving them a fit"
:skep:
Sounds like it's time for a new dealer. This one doesn't have a clue.

i hate dealers i get the same crap, it happens to me all the time, they say its fixed, i drive out the door and there comes the problem again.....find a new dealer. Even though the vette is underwarrenty at that dealership only, I would sometimes rather pay someone else to do it right. :rolleyes:
