The New York Times is reporting today that the National Highway Traffic Safety Admistration has stepped us safety investigations related to three specific models, one of them being the Chevrolet Corvette.
Specific to the Corvette investigation, they are looking at about 48,000 Vettes from 2005 and 2006 model years. Some owners had claimed that the stability control system malfunctioned causing a sudden and inappropriate braking action without illumination of the brake lights, causing the vehicle to swerve left or right.
Currently there is no announcement from GM on any specific recall related to this problem. Right now it seems like the NHTSA is checking everything out and we should hear more soon. Any Corvette-specific recall information can ALWAYS be found on CorvetteBlog. Stay tuned.
