I have a 2014 Expedition XLT EL with 186k on it. The Service AdvanceTrac notification has been coming on intermittently. The ABS, TCS, and Stability Control lights also all come on. They all turn off as soon as the Expedition comes to a stop. The mechanic says it isn't throwing any codes, so they don't know what the issue could be. Any suggestions? I really like this SUV and would like to fix whatever the problem is before it gets worse.

Sounds like a wheel speed sensor starting to fail, have your shop monitor the ABS sensors on a short drive.

Have the vehicle scanned for any stored fault codes - which will point you in the direction of the repair.

Isn't that what the mechanic would have done when he scanned for codes and said it wasn't throwing any, or is this something different?

The mechanic may not have had a scanner that could read all codes (or erased them).

You can have some auto parts stores (such as Auto Zone) scan your vehicle for free, and they will provide a printout of any codes (and possible causes).
