How much is it to get that fixed

Probably not the case here, but check into your wheel sensors. My daughter's is doing the same thing with SVS, Track-off, and ABS lights.

The sensor provides input the computer uses to trip the second two of those, the SVS just means "get it fixed".

ya...its been covered dozens of times on here. mine does the exact same thing. either the sensor or wires going to it.

Yep. Mines been doing it for months. I am checking out the wires tomorrow while doing an oil change. Bought grease for after I clean out the connectors. See if that helps first.
