Warning Lights Commin On For No Reason.....
So im driving down the highway lastnight and all of a sudden my CHECK ENGINE, ABS, and TRAC OFF lights come on. So I pull over thinking it just might be a loose conection on the battery....nope. I get back in the car, start it up and the lights are off. So i begin to drive again, and all three lights come back on again. Nothing seems to happen when the lights come on, performance wise. Anyone out there know the reason behind this?????

Check Engine or Service Vehicle? If it's SVS that's a pretty good clue (with the other two) that it's a hub.

As stated above..
I'd put my money on the hub/wheel bearing sensors..
It will come on more and more periodically..
