Qestion About "Sevice Active Handling"

On my way home tonight, I got on the exit ramp and the DIC suddenly displayed 3 messages:

Service Active Handling
Service Traction Control
Reduced Engine Power

Anybody have any ideas what could be wrong? This is an 04 CE Coupe.
The car has a little over 30,000 miles but is still under warranty. I am going to try to get it to the dealership in the morning but I was hoping to go in with a little info. I can't stand it when dealerships try to get over on you because they think you don't know anything!

I had the same codes on my 02 coupe. It turned out to be something with the ABS that was amiss and once it was fixed, all codes were fine. Just my experience.

Some times the wheel sensors get loose and all that is needed is to plug them in tighter.

However, with underwarrenty let the dealer do it.

I got it a few times on my 02 ZO6, took it in and they replaced the EBCM (Electronic Brake Control Module) and BMPV(???). Under warranty it was about $3k. Let the dealer take care of it.

Thanks for the info! Had to leave the car with the dealership over the weekend because they didn't get it figured out on Friday!

I'll let you know how it turns out.

I've been getting this every since we installed the new motor... I'm hoping it is just a ground issue... Sounds like the ABS unit is an expensive swap. I had no issues with my AHS and ABS prior to my other motor losing two rods at VIR in June.
