Consumer Description

I TURNED THE VEHICLE ON. THE INSTRUMENT PANEL SAID TRACTION CONTROL OFF , SERVICE ABS. I THOUGHT OH GREAT. I DROVE TO THE STORE AND THE VEHICLE DROVE LIKE USUAL. I GOT BACK IN THE VEHICLE AND THE MESSAGE WAS NOW OFF THE MESSAGE BOARD ON THE INSTRUMENT PANEL. A FEW DAYS LATER I TURN ON THE CAR AND THE MESSAGE APPEARS. MID DRIVING THE MESSAGE DISAPPEARED. THE NEXT DAY THE MESSAGE APPEARS AGAIN. I TURN OFF THE VEHICLE AND TURN ON THE VEHICLE AGAIN THIS TIME THE MESSAGE IS GONE. THIS STILL CONTINUES. NOT AS FREQUENT. BUT I LIKE OTHERS THINK EVERYTHING IS OK AS SOON AS THE MESSAGE IS GONE. WHAT IF THIS ISN'T THE CASE. WHAT IF SOMETHING IS WRONG WITH THE ABS. WOULDN'T THE MESSAGE STAY IN THE MESSAGE CENTER?
