I t started when you drive on a bumpy road the ABS light comes on and the trac light flashes plus the steering gets tighter as if the power steering is not working properly. It stops when you turn off the ignition and everything resets and it is back working properly. Now the ABS light comes on all the time and so does the trac light still flashes.

You will need to take it to a shop that has a chassis scanner, to read the ABS codes.

Could be as simple as a wheel sensor that has worked loose, the the scanner will tell you.

While most autoparts stores will read codes, they can only read "P" codes or powertrain codes. A chassis scanner will read "C" codes (ABS).
