You say you had the front hubs replaced do you mean the brake rotors.
This sounds like a wheel bearing problem it would make a noise and also as the bearing degrades the wheel wil start to wobble .This would effict brakes traction and stibelty sensors .Who replaced the parts they would be responsable if you had a warrenty
Jack the vehicle up front 1 wheel at a time grap the tire top and bottom it should not move in and out at all if so its a bearing the whole system rides on the bearings .
This is a system so check rotor pads calipers sensors it all has to work together

    I had the front hub assembly changed on both sides which is my wheel bearings I also had new brakes put on all 4 tires its making a grinding noise

  • JOHN LAPIER Apr 06, 2015

    From what you are saying about what you have done to the vehicle .And now I know for sure someone else did the work .Standard pratice on brake jobs dosn't include new wheel bearings .You spend some money and tryed to do the right thing These poeple who did this jod didn't inspect or repack the front wheel bearings .And now at least one of your front wheels is about fall off and damage your vehicle. If the spindle that the bearing rides on is damaged .

  • JOHN LAPIER Apr 06, 2015

    You have a spindle bolted to the frame a bearing tappered roller bearing slides over the spindle 1 inside 1 outside the rotor or hub slides over that with bearig seals inside and outside then a lock nut threads on the end of the spindle and sqishes it all together and its sealed with a lot of wheel bearing greese in side .1 of your front wheels is falling off

SOURCE: anti-lock, traction control, service soon,brake,

Anti-Lock and Trac Off lights are lit on my 1999 Alero, as well. They usually come on after about 5 minutes of driving, but are not always on when I start the car.

SOURCE: my car makes a scrapping and or grinding noise when driving and braking like i'm dragging something

Just by the information you put, I would say its your brakes. They are most likely worn out past the minimum wear (3mm). If its whenever you drive maybe you are dragging something? Your exhaust system supports may have failed, maybe something stuck in there and so you are dragging it along. Take a look underneath your car.

If the noise only happens when you brake then its gotta be a problem with your brakes. Sometimes rocks get stuck in between brake pads and rotors, this makes a very annoying squeeling sound until the rock comes loose and falls out. Another possibility, like I said earlier, is that your brake pads have worn out and is now metal on metal. I recommend you go to a shop and get your brakes checked. Brakes are a very important part of your vehicle, safety especially, so I don't recommend doing it yourself unless you know what you are doing.

Hope this helps.
Thanks

SOURCE: Impala - trac off and ABS light along with service traction syst

THE PROBLEM IS WITH A HUB WHEEL SPEED SENSOR OR MORE LIKELY THE HARNESS LEADING TO THE HUB.

CHECK THE RESISTANCE AT THE HUB CONNECTION, IT SHOULD BE BETWEEN 900OHMS AND 1300OHMS. THEN SWITCH TO A-C VOLTAGE, IT SHOULD BE 100MV WHEN TURNING THE WHEEL BY HAND. IF BOTH CHECK OUT THE PROBLEM IS IN THE WIRING TO THE HUB.

THE RIGHT FRONT HUB USUALLY HAS A BEND, DOWNWARD THEN UPWARD NEAR THE CONNECTOR TO THE HUB. THAT IS WHERE THE PROBLEM USUALLY OCCURS.

NEW HARNESS WIRES CAN BE BOUGHT AT THE DEALER.

SOURCE: How do you turn off

the only way to reset this ABS light is with an OBDII diagnostic tool. You can buy one for around $25-$200 or any technitian would be able to reset it for you and probably not even charge for that. If it come back on after reset, that indicates there is a problem somewhere with the ABS system and it will give a code.
if this was helpful please give it thumbs up to help others.
Good luck

I have a 2008 Saturn outlook with 2w drive. I recently drove in wet weather a my Stabil Trak and traction control indicators

When the Stabilitrak and Traction Control indicators come on and stay illuminated in your 2008 Saturn Outlook, it typically indicates a problem with the vehicle's stability control system. This system helps maintain control and stability during adverse driving conditions, such as wet or slippery roads. There are several potential causes for these warning lights, and it's essential to address the issue promptly to ensure your vehicle's safety and performance. Here are some common reasons for the warning lights to stay on:
  1. Wheel Speed Sensor Issues: The Stabilitrak and Traction Control systems rely on information from wheel speed sensors to determine if a wheel is slipping or losing traction. If one of these sensors is malfunctioning or dirty, it can trigger the warning lights.
  2. Faulty ABS Module: The Anti-lock Braking System (ABS) module is closely related to the stability control system. If there is a problem with the ABS module, it can affect the functionality of Stabilitrak and Traction Control.
  3. Damaged Wiring: Damage to the wiring that connects the wheel speed sensors to the control module can disrupt the communication and trigger the warning lights.
  4. Malfunctioning Control Module: The control module responsible for the stability control system can develop faults or errors over time.
  5. Brake System Issues: Problems with the vehicle's braking system, including worn brake pads, can sometimes lead to issues with the Stabilitrak system.
  6. Faulty Steering Angle Sensor: The steering angle sensor is part of the stability control system. A malfunction in this sensor can lead to warning lights.
  7. Low Fluid Levels: Low brake fluid levels can trigger the warning lights, as the stability control system may interpret it as a potential issue with the braking system.
To diagnose and address the problem, you should take your Saturn Outlook to a qualified mechanic or a dealership. They can perform a diagnostic scan using specialized equipment to pinpoint the exact issue that is causing the warning lights to stay on. Once the problem is identified, they can recommend the necessary repairs or replacements.
It's important not to ignore these warning lights, as the stability control system is designed to enhance vehicle safety and performance, particularly in adverse driving conditions. Addressing the issue promptly will help ensure the continued safe operation of your vehicle.

My 2008 Chevy Equinox gives me message that say "service stabilitrak" and "traction control off". ABS light comes on and now I can hear a grinding noise when try to break when this happens.

The noise you hear is most likely the brakes there's a good chance that when you get the brakes repaired the other problems will go away as well, all the traction controls and stable-track depend on working anti-lock brake system. I hope this helps. Take care.

2002 Buick Rendezvous Service traction system and ABS lights, grinding when turning ans braking

The ABS and Service Traction system may be due to bad sensors or signal reaching the ABS/Traction Control computer. The grinding may be due to uneven or unsmooth rotors, and/or worn out pads or shoes.

I would recommend that the entire braking system be diagnosed at your local dealer or brake service facility.
