I have lived in that world!
how are the fluid levels? I would check the easy parts first!
Have you spun out? Run down the battery? the process is all about; Traction, brakes, lights, and sensors may be "out of Balance" So an OBDII read out may be the easy answer.
Good luck with your hunt.
Where in the world are you?
