Consumer Description

VSC/TRAC LIGHT HAS BEEN COMING ON INTERMITTENTLY FOR ONE YEAR WITH NO ILL EFFECTS UNTIL YESTERDAY WHEN THE VSC SYSTEM ACTIVATED ITSELF TWICE UNDER PERFECTLY NORMAL DRIVING CONDITIONS. THE FIRST TIME IT HAPPENED I WAS BRAKING NORMALLY WHEN THE VSC KICKED ON AND LIMITED MY STOPPING ABILITY. THE SECOND TIME THE VSC ACTIVATED WAS I WAS DRIVING 50 MPH, FOOT OFF THE BRAKE, WHEN THE VEHICLE BEGAN PULLING HARD TO THE RIGHT FORCING ME INTO THE NEXT LANE. FOR THE FEW MOMENTS THIS LASTED I HAD NO CONTROL OVER BRAKING OR STEERING. DEALER HAS YET TO RESOLVE THE ISSUE. *TR
