| Component | ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL |
| Product type code | VEHICLE |
| Description of the problem | The vehicle stability system activated while travelling 75 mph on the interstate. The car was travelling on a section of road that curved to the left. Due to the braking action induced by the vsc at the highway speed, the car swerved and almost hit vehicles in the other lanes. The car has exhibited this behavior many times, and there are at least two sections of road where i can make it happen at will. Due to the extreme danger of losing control of the car while it is applying the brakes, i have disabled the vsc system, causing loss of anti-lock brakes, vsc, etc. This is a common problem with a lot of complaints on multiple web sites. |
