Traction control maintenance?

[Schu]

Has anyone gotten a dash warning "traction control maintenance"... or something to that effect?
I saw the warning this morning, but didn't write down the exact verbiage.
I've never seen that before... it offered after being in "all nannies off" while driving very slowly in a parking lot.

That is a warning to not creep through parking lots with the nannys off without spinning the tires...

If I'm not mistaken, traction control and ABS are all controlled by the same wheel speed sensors/modules so the issue probably originated from some damage (electrical or hardware) to that system.

No need to guess, though; If your still under warranty, take it in.

Meh, sometimes it gets confused and shows that error, even with the nannies off.

If it doesn’t happen again or very frequently it’s no big deal. The system usually just reboots after a minute or less.I’ve seen that error maybe 10 times. Usually on gravel roads with nannies on or when driving and sliding the car pretty hard with nannies off.

^that's what I was thinking... it went off after a minute and has not returned.
