ABS, TRAC, and Service Vehicle Soon Lights Are On?

Question

What could this mean. I have a groaning noise coming from the front end of my vehicle when I turn(especially sharp turns) and when my car goes over speed bumps, it is a clicky noise like someone jumping on a really old bed. What could all this mean and what would be the cost to repair it. 01 Olds Alero 4dr sedan

Answer 1

ABS and TRAC use wheel sensors to operate. The service engine light is something different. You must have your car scanned to find out what exactly is wrong. The clicky noise over bumps is most likely a stabilizer link gone bad. Sorry, I have no prices for any of this.

Answer 2

take the vehicle to a shop immeadietly and have it checked out
the abs light will come on when the computer picks up a malfunction with the abs system. abs stands for anti-lock brakes.
trac means the computer is picking up a traction control malfunction. the service vehicle soon light comes on when the computer picks up a minor engine problem. or an overdue maintence need. if your vehicle has not had any repairs or scheduled maintance i.e. transmission, radiator, tune- up etc done in the last couple of years get it checked out and good luck!

Answer 3

sounds like you have a wheel bearing going bad on one side. The bearing is heating up and probably ruined your speed sensor which had turned on all those lights. Easy way to check: next time your out driving the car, swerve back and forth in the road. If you hear the noise more on when you swerve to the left, then the right side wheel bearing is bad and vise versa! Hope this helps you!
