2000 Chevrolet Corvette driver assistance problems

Filed Jul 17, 2018 · Brakes, Driver assistance · TN

The ABS light and traction control are non-functioning. Chevrolet dealer advised the problem is the electronic brake control module. Chevrolet discontinued the part and no parts are available. I was advised they can not fix this issue and my car will simply not have ABS or traction control functionality anymore. Hard for me to believe chevrolet cant be held responsible to provide parts to repair their own cars for a feature such as ABS systems.

I constantly get ABS tcs warning lights on the dash board. Diagnosed as a bad ecbm but gm has discontinued the part ! There are no companies that can repair this years (2000) ecbm and no used ones to be found . Neither the ABS or the tcs is functional while lights are on . Dangerous and frustrating. At different speeds and while stationary

Electronic braking control module intermittently fails to function giving the error service traction control system\anti-braking system. No parts are available to repair car. Could cause loss of control while braking or steering car.

Another recall needs to be done on the 97-2004 c5 corvette. Many many people also complaining the ABS lights and the traction control warning lights come on by themselves and disable the ABS brakes and the traction control while driving which in the rain or snow is a huge problem. The really hugeissue is you cant even fix it at a shop. The part that goes bad which is the ABS module in front of the engine is no longer made. When gm went on strike, the company that made the ABS/traction module for these cars went bankrupt. So I am driving around with a car with no ABS and no traction control in bad weather that would and will cause an accident. This needs a recall on it as well as the steering column which I already filed a complaint on that also. A car with 55,000 should not be doing things like this. Been happening since I had 42,000 on it and is still doing it now every single day today.

The ABS and traction control sys. Fail in all of these cars. Gm does not provide a fix or replacement part for the 99-2000 ebcm which means I have to drive my car without needed safety features required by the state of va to pass vehicle state inspection. The majority of 99-2000 corvettes are driving around without ABS and traction control because of lack of support from gm. This is an issue that needs to be resolved.

I was driving on a main street this summer at about 40 MPH and put on the brakes and they lock up, my car when sideways at 40 MPH, very lucky know one was hurt!! Went to the dealer to have the car checked out and was told the ebcm was bad and there was no fix for it !!! So now I and I'm sure a lot of others have a very unsafe and dangerous vehicle that chevrolet seems to have no obligation to supply a repair for. You would think the federal safety agency would step on and force chevrolet to resolve this issue , or is it going to take a death to make someone act ?

The traction control and ABS system does dot work because the ABS module has failed and there are no after market repairs or parts.

Warning light indicator came on for service traction system and service active handling system and will not reset. No replacement parts are available and dealer has no fix for this problem other than to remove the fuses associated with these systems.

Computer message: service active handling. Per gm need part #26058286 steering position sensor which is discontinued for 1999/2000 corvettes. They still make this part for all other model years including for 1997-98 corvettes. This could cause the traction control system to apply the brakes and/or perform other functions, when it shouldn't, causing erratic unsafe driving conditions. I am afraid to drive it and cannot sell it as is.

Warning lights in dash alerted me to the active handling/traction control not working. This is the second failure of the ebtcm module. Called the gm dealer for the module only to find out is it no longer available & there is no alternative or replacement available. I am currently driving the car with the fuse pulled to render the safety braking system inoperative.
