Default Service active handling

Driving down the road today i got the active handling warming up....this was after driving the car about 15 minutes....i have only seen this a couple of times on cold morning last fall and it was right when i took off. As soon as it told me it was warmed up the service active handling came on and the traction control off light was lit on the dash. I shut the car off at the store and came out, started the car and the service message was gone and the light was out. I took the long way home with no problems.....Any one else had this happen? Maybe a wheel sensor going bad? It seems fine now....

Mine does this too. It'll do it twice in one week then it won't do it again for 6 months. I just ignore it...

You guys need to check your codes. The traction control system (tcs) will have codes if you see service active handling.

Its a normal message letting you know the ebtcm is calibrating. Nothing to worry about.

Check the manual, it is normal and has a quick write up on it.
