Consumer Description

FROM TIME TO TIME I RECEIVE A DRIVER INFORMATION CENTER (DIC) MESSAGE "SERVICE ACTIVE HANDLING SYSTEM". I HAVE RESEARCHED THIS MESSAGE AND HAVE FOUND THERE IS A TECHNICAL SERVICE BULLETIN ISSUED BY GM COVERING THIS ISSUE. I HAVE RESEATED THE CONNECTOR ON THE STEERING COLUMN OUTLINED BY THE TSB ELIMINATING THE DIC MESSAGE FOR A FEW MONTHS WHEN THE MESSAGE THEN RETURNS. WHILE THIS PROBLEM HAS NOT RESULTED IN CATASTROPHIC FAILURE, IT HAS THE POTENTIAL TO DO SO. I AM CONCERNED ABOUT THIS DIC MESSAGE AND THE POTENTIAL THAT ACTIVE HANDLING COULD BE COMPROMISED IN SUCH A WAY THAT THE DRIVER OF OUR VEHICLE COULD LOOSE CONTROL RESULTING IN AN ACCIDENT. ODI INVESTIGATION # EA09-002. *TR
