HAVE HAD ALL OXYGEN SENSORS REPLACED, CHECK ENGINE LIGHT RESOLVED BUT TRACTION STILL ENGAGES, SEIZES THE ENGINE. EVAP. SYSTEM FIXED, TIRES, WHEEL BEARINGS CHECKED, THERMOSTAT FIXED. STILL TRACTION IS KICKING ON. EXTREMELY DANGEROUS FOR ME AND MY THREE YOUNG CHILDREN. I AM AFRAID TO DRIVE, EVEN AROUND TOWN.
