Consumer Description

WHILE DRIVE STRAIGHT AND AT HIGHWAY SPEED, THE ACTIVE HANDLING SYSTEM ENGAGED CAUSING THE CAR TO VIOLENTLY VEER RIGHT. I FOUGHT FOR CONTROL FOR ABOUT 4 SECONDS UNTIL THE SYSTEM FINALLY DISENGAGED. HAD A MESSAGE OF SERVICE ACTIVE HANDLING. THIS IS THE SECOND OCCURRENCE AND BOTH TIMES COULD HAVE RESULTED IN A CRASH. THERE HAS BEEN MANY COMPLAINTS ON THIS ISSUE AND GM DOES NOT WANT TO TAKE RESPONSIBILITY. I BELIEVE IT IS TIME FOR OUR GOVERNMENT TO STEP IN AND SAVE OUR LIVES. THIS CAR IS UNSAFE TO DRIVE AND I WOULD LIKE TO SEE ACTION TAKEN BEFORE WE HAVE INNOCENT PEOPLE KILLED. PLEASE HELP US! *TR
