What is going on when all these lights come on all of a sudden with no hint of trouble, ...Service Vehicle Soon...Trac off...Anti-lock. :unsure: Should I have someone take a look at it? Also my tape and CD player both say Clean player sometimes. I'm frustrated.

Need more info... How many miles do you have? Is the car idle, shift or drive funny?

Sounds like you have a Hub Going out.

It has 41,000 miles and doesn't drive funny, I didn't think. I have an appointment at the tire place cuz they said my hub bearing on my left front tire (or something like that) was going bad. Sorry, I'm not good with all these mechanical names. But they had said those lights don't have anything to do with the tire.

With 41K miles, I don't think it would be you hub. It is probably the wheel sensor.
Did it start right after you went to the tire place? They probably just loosen the plug from the sensor to make some extra cash.

Thanks for the info. :) How ironic, that ya'll would know what it was after only hearing about the dash lights and the tire place said it has nothing to do with it. It'll probably straighten out after they fix it. I think ya'll are in the business. ;)

It started right after I rotated my tires there. I told them and they seemed offended that I would imply that it had something to do with them. <_<

The sensor is part of the hub.

Well, the sound is gone, the lights are off and my bank account is suffering!!!! :angry: I think they made more than a buck or two off of me, more like over $300. Thank goodness, I got a paycheck today. ;)

That sounds like ALOT of money $300 for a hub?

more than sounds like it...wheel hub bearing assembly is only 110 or so. Why did you have them work on it?

They had to do both the left and right tire and each one cost $130, plus $48 labor and tax. So you think I/Dad could have fixed it for cheaper? He was pretty upset that it cost so much.
