Code 6210 need help (Uploaded Video)

So right after installing new rear tires i go to drive off the lot and esp/abs malfunction. Basically traction light turns on flashes a few times and then you get esp/abs in the center. He is saying its sbc unit, im thinking its a speed sensor. Other then the steering getting stiff the car drives perfect. Not sure if the sound is normal or not.

SBC is covered for 25 years/unlimited mileage have MB dealer check it. Might get lucky if SBC is fine, in their attempt to make a sale they may offer suggestion to resolve.

Without the appropriate scanner tool both you and your mechanic are just guessing.

Did you recently get an alignment? If you get a bad alignment your car will turn on traction control and other warning lights. This happened to me several times with dumb *** people at Merchants Tire. The steering angle sensor detects something is wrong. Just a thought!
