2000 Chevrolet Corvette Steering Problems

“The ebcm traction control module , ABS control modules and the steering wheel position sensor for the c5 corvettes made from 1997 thru 2000 are no longer manufactured by general motors or licensed to an after market manufacturer for production as an after market replacement. When these modules go bad there is a risk for accidents or death while driving as the ABS system that works in conjunction with these modules will lock up one or more of the brakes causing the driver to swerve into other lanes. This happened to me when my steering wheel position sensor failed. …”

“I experienced loss of control by skidding and almost leaving the road toward a dropoff while applying the brake since the ABS, active handling, traction control systems have been malfunctioning at 35mph on a mountain road applying the brake as I was going around a sharp curve I believe the cause of this malfunction of the ABS/ah system is a faulty ebcm which is known by countless members of the Corvette owners community as a safety issue that should have been recalled a long time ago.

“My 2000 Chevrolet Corvette has approximately 57,500 original miles on it. Recall #04006 was completed on my vehicle by dealer code 20385 back in 2004.

“These c5 corvettes had a GM recall for the steering column locking up on it. I had the recall done. My car still has a steering column issue with it. The service steering column warning lights still come on intermittently and when they do, the car disables itself and will not go over 2 MPH and shuts the fuel pump off. I installed another temp fix called an lmc5 for it. I still get the pull key wait 10 seconds warning lights and service steering column. Gm did a temp fix and never fixed it. When driving the car it will shut itself off because of the steering column warning. …”
