Q: I have a 2008 Ford Escape, and I am having an issue with my ABS and traction control. When I first start the vehicle, the ABS light and traction control lights are off, but moments after I start driving or once I take a left turn, the car starts to stutter, the ABS and traction control light both start blinking, but shut off as soon as I straighten out the car and it runs perfect again. (This does not happen taking a right turn.) Minutes later, after I drive a mile or longer, both the ABS and traction control light will turn on and stay on as long as the car is running. I can take left turns with no problems; almost like there's no problem with the car at all. Any thoughts as to what this could be? It all started when I was pulling a small utility trailer with nothing on it.
