You might want to do a search but I thought there was a recall for the Service Active Handling message.

EDIT: Found it.

SAFETY

Bulletin No.: 10118

Date: April 23, 2010

Subject: 10118 - "Service Active Handling System" Message in Driver Information Center

Models:
2005-2006 Chevrolet Corvette
Equipped with Tilt and Telescoping Steering Column (N37)

Due to part availability, customers involved in this recall will be notified in phases.

Condition

General Motors has decided that a defect, which relates to motor vehicle safety, exists in certain 2005 and 2006 model year Chevrolet Corvette vehicles equipped with a tilt and telescoping steering column (N37). In rare cases, repeated movement of the steering column may cause a signal interruption within the column. If this occurs, the message, "Service Active Handling System" will appear in the Driver Information Center, and one or more of the brakes may apply, possibly causing the vehicle to pull to the right or left. If the driver does not respond to the change in vehicle movement, a crash could occur.

Correction

Dealers are to inspect the wire connection in the steering column, and if necessary, install an additional clip to secure the wire connection.

Vehicles Involved

Involved are certain 2005 and 2006 model year Chevrolet Corvette vehicles equipped with a tilt and telescoping steering column (N37), and built within these VIN breakpoints:
