Traction control help
Hey everybody
I'm new to the forum I have a brz Subaru I have a concern-I got in a hit and run accident about a month ago My car got fixed, I'm getting an alignment tomorrow My car keeps popping the traction control and the ABS light Is that something that the tire shop should check out? Or should I take it to the Subaru dealership? Any suggestion on what I can do Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

Take it to the dealer. Probably it's just a busted sensor, but things that control braking are kinda important safety wise and you'll want people who know what they're doing to check it out.

Its possible you might have a bad alternator and the energy for the trac. and ABS sensors aren't there, so the lights on the dash stay on. Happened to me about 1 month ago. My car wouldn't start about a day later.

*needs alignment*
It's popping because your alignment is so far out. Get it aligned and it will stop.

Possible since the alignment is off the steering angle sensor is reading wrong also. Once you get a alignment get the steering angle sensor reset as well and it should fix it.
