Default traction control issues

So today while driving to and from work, while mid turn or just starting on a slick surface, the parking brake light, slip indicator(solid not flashing), trac and vsc off indicators, and the abs light came on. There was no CEL so I'm going to guess no code but still gonna try to check for one. I've already got to bring it to the mechanic to get my shocks changed(don't trust the autozone spring compressors for the front) and will be asking them too, before I do any ideas guys?

Forgot to mention, 2012 Tc, Automatic, About 59000, probably need pads soon but don't think that would turn all these lights on, and finally in a parking lot i came close to flooring it and the traction control was not operating

check for wheel speed sensor codes. WSS are by far the most common issue.

I am on the verge of saying i regret buying this damn thing, off to the dealer today since the CEL, Electric Power Steering malfunction, the light for the brights but not the brights, speedo went out, and my turn signal was acting like a bulb was out. This all on top of what I stated earlier, at least I know for certain there are codes though

Sounds like a wiring issue, possibly a ground or loose connection at a main junction. was the car ever in an accident or had any serious work done?

with the codes that came in it could be as simple as a speed sensor or as complicated as a reflashed/new ecu

WSS wouldn't affect speedo(runs off trans. speed), blinkers, power steering or high beam indicator light. Do you have something plugged into the obd2 port like an insurance black box or some aftermarket gadget those can cause all sorts of screwy things to happen? Do you have any of the codes the modules are setting?
