Default Active Handling Warm-up?

I have had my 04' vert for 3 weeks now, so needless to say I am new to the forum and new to Corvettes. Boy do I love this car! I got the active handling warm-up message twice yesterday. Should I be worried?

Thanks in advance for the help!!

Great Forum!!

No. It's normal. The owner's manual is pretty good reading.

It has to do with how fast you are going after a motor start. As stated, there is a section in the owners manual on it. Dollars to donuts when you got the message you had just started the car and were driving slowly, under 10 mph.

Now that you mention it I believe I was driving slowly. Unfortunately I am a card carrying member of the “If all else fails read the directions club” I will do better next time.

Thanks!!
