Another tally for problems with my Olds Alero. I'm driving down the road when all of a sudden my dashboard hits me with a brigade of yellow lights..anti-lock, trac off, service vehicle soon. Sometimes it happens while I'm driving and sometimes while I'm braking. If it happens while I'm driving, it's not a big deal. But if it happens while I'm braking, my ABS system kicks in for about 2 seconds, which could be disaster if I'm trying to stop at a red light. After the car has this hiccup and the lights are on, it drives fine. I'm suspecting the car disables the ABS and that's why it drives fine. If you are having this problem, be sure to keep 1 hand on the e-brake if the warning lights haven't came on.
