Hi there. These lights are turning on because the computer is trying to control the vehicle because it detects a wheel that is slipping or has some instability. Most of the time, this is caused by a bad wheel speed sensor or an issue with the steering angle sensor. It can even be a yaw sensor, but the wheel speed sensor is the most common. I usually check the tires first as a low or odd tire on the car will cause this. If the tires are fine, I use a scan tool to monitor the sensor reading while driving it, which will tell me what is going on. If you need to have this checked, consider YourMechanic, as a certified mechanic can come to your home or office to diagnose the warning lights and come up with the correct repairs.
