Consumer Description
I WAS DRIVING MY CORVETTE AT APPROXIMATELY 40 MPH. WHEN COMING OUT OF A CURVE ACCELERATED AND THE CAR PULLED TO THE RIGHT. WHEN APPLIED BRAKES PRESSURE IT HAD NO AFFECT ON STEERING AND STOPPING THE CAR. THE CAR CONTINUED TO GO TO THE RIGHT IN A CIRCLE UNTIL VEHICLE HIT THE GUARD RAIL. IT APPEARED THAT IT WAS IN A LIMP MODE THE CAR HAD A MIND OF ITS OWN THROUGH ACCELERATION THE TRANSMISSION AND BRAKE CONTROLS WHERE IN SYNC WITH EACH OTHER AND TOOK OVER CONTROL OF VEHICLE AND WOULDN'T STOP THE CAR. I AM FORTUNATE THAT DIDN'T OCCUR ON THE HIGHWAY WITH OTHER VEHICLES AROUND ME, WHICH COULD HAVE CREATED A CATASTROPHIC SITUATION. *TR
