Traction light on while cornering?
Maybe some who has tracked there car has experienced this and can start me in the right direction. I somewhat understand the light comes on during hard cornering. But i take this corner hard all the time and never had a problem with light ever coming on. I had a strange encounter the first time this happened, car was jerking like some kinda of limp mode, Which i thought was about to put me in the barrier because i was still in the turn. After the pucker factor went away and car went back to normal, i chalked it up to be an uneven part in the road that i couldnt avoid this time. But now the traction light flashes when i pull to the left even in small winding roads.

How are your tires? How are any wear items with the suspension? When the light comes on, the wheels are losing grip. This can be hard cornering, uneven roads or soft suspension... if its just coming on driving in a streight line thats something else unless you are on gravel or ice...

They may just be the culprit. I had to run out side to check my tires. I forgot that my car is notorious for tread wear on the inner side making it hard to see. My fronts need to be replaced. Like I'm ordering some now replaced.
lol Thanks
