While driving in rain, the warning light for the traction control system came on showing it was "off" and pressing the reset button would not make it come back on. One of the rear sensors had failed, disabling the traction control and antilock systems.
Left rear wheel sensor failed in wet weather, disabling the traction control system and the anti-lock brake system on the vehicle. Same component failed on right rear several thousand miles earlier, in January of 2007. Very expensive part to replace ($378. 00) in each case, plus labor.
