My car just started doing a new light on above the rpm gauge it looks like a car that is skidding. It only happens when I am taking a tight curve and it makes the car feel like it is breaking loose around the curve almost like it cant handle the curve.

Whenever the Traction Control System (TCS) / Dynamic Stability Control (DSC) is operating, it flashes.

It kept you from spinning out in this case and probably wrecking the car!!

Full throttle corners are never a good idea. Please don't turn it off. Ever.

Funny thing was it wasnt that hard of a corner and I was only going about 35 MPH. But I think I may have figured out the problem. The back passenger side tire was somewhat lower than the rest causing it to crab around a left hand turn.


Thanks!

That can do it also. The difference between wheel speeds activates DCS/TCS

or your tires are bald, and you can't handle the grip anymore

How come? Is your car lowered? Is your shocks blown on the back passenger side?
