Traction control light (skidding car) flashes, feels like ABS is being applied to passenger front wheel even though I am not applying the brakes and even when accelerating. Usually only stops when the eas/bas lights come on. Always worse on warm days. Jeep says theres no issue but after 5 minutes on the internet, thata clearly not true.
