Most likely a bad wheel speed sensor or wiring harness issue.

1993 chevy 1500 while on the freeway it lurches to the right and left and feels unstable I've replaced two ball joints and the tie rod ends to try to fix the problem I need some help

You need to get the wheels aligned. When you replace the tie-rod ends, theres a chance you didn't get them screwed on to the exact adjustment. This would make the front wheels not point in exactly the same direction. So one front wheel tracks the road and the other kind of skids ahead but sort of sideways and then that one grabs and tracks the road while the first wheel skids.
Wheel alignment prices vary all over the place. Call lots of places. Prices may range from $35 to over $100.

2001 Lexus LS430. when I start the car most times it's fine, but when I take off from Park to Drive the SKID CONTROL Light comes on and beeps and the vehicle starts to brake on it own (Quiet Freak

You must have the dealer scan the system with a special tool to see what is causing this unwanted activation of the vehicle stability control system.

I have problem with the Mitsubishi montero rear wheel drive light left one it disappeared of the dash board while i was entering to my drive way the active skid control light began to flashes along with...

IF the skid control light went on, then there's a trouble code stored in the computer. Get the code read is ALWAYS the first step before asking for help. Otherwise you just get wild guesses that are mostly wrong.

Epc light just came on 2003 jetta, what is epc?

Electronic Power Control. It controls the power to the wheels to keep them from skidding by keeping them at the same speed. It works best in the snow/ice/and mud. It gives the driver more control of the car in extreme situations. ABS keep you from skidding in a stop, and EPC keeps you from skidding under acceleration.
The car will drive like a normal car with out it. The problem can be found by using a VAG scan tool. It could be a wheel sensor, or the module.
Good Luck!

this is a traction control fault indicator light. this is most commonly caused by a faulty wheel speed sensor. you'll want to bring the car into the shop to be hooked up to a computer for a proper diagnosis.
