I can’t afford the tire sensor, but just a few days ago it was cold and a little wet out but no ice was started driving out of town got to about 55 to 60 and my service stability and traction light started going off.

If the light was flashing while a wheel was slipping then that is normal and an indication that the system is active. If the lights stayed on the whole time driving then you would need the ABS module scanned for codes. Your local parts store usually has an ABS reader. If you can get the codes and post them on here it will help us assist you further.

If the fault code is for a relay fault which these vehicles are notorious to fail, then the ABS module can be sent out to repair. Here is a link on ABS modules and I hope the information is helpful. Please keep us updated.

Hello,

This is how you get the codes:

but it sounds like you have a front bearing hub that is going out which is common. here is a video to show you how to replace it. Also you can jack the fourth of the car up and grab each tire and pull back for forth to see which one is loose.

Can you please shoot a quick video with your phone so we can see what's going on? that would be great. You can upload it here with your response. Please run down these guides and report back.
