“My 2004 Ford Expedition has had a problem since we bought it from the dealer. The advancetrac will engage on dry surfaces and smooth roads. It will happen anytime of year when the road is dry and should have no reason for turning on. I almost crashed october 31 2007, the ABS turned on and I could not steer, I slowly came to a stop in on the wrong side of the road. It was hard to stop while the ABS was still engaged the whole time. I then turned off the advancetrac and I drove right to the dealer and told them to fix it. …”
