THE CONSUMER'S VEHICLE TRACTION CONTROL SYSTEM KEEPS SHOWING A DEFECT WHEN THE LIGHT COMES ON. THE CONSUMER TOOK VEHICLE TO DEALER 4 TIMES, AND THEY COULDN'T FIND ANYTHING. ACCORDING TO OWNER'S MANUAL IT HAS TO DO WITH THE BRAKE SYSTEM. *AK...THE TRACTION CONTROL LIGHT CONTINUES TO COME ON, AND DEALER WAS UNABLE TO REPAIR OR DETERMINE THE CAUSE. THIS CREATES A POTENTIAL HAZARD TO CONSUMER AND OTHERS IF THE LIGHT SIGNALS A PROBLEM. *AK *SB THIS PROBLEM HAVE BEEN GOING ON SINCE OCTOBER 17, 2004 TO THE PRESENT. *SB
