VDC & Slip Light Keep Turning On

The last 3 or 4 times I start my car and go my VDC & SLIP light go on. If I restart they will stay off. What is this?

No snow or rain, only dry pavement. I have not added any mods to the car. It simply just started doing this this week.

Yes, even tires can affect VDC.

I changed my tires about 2-3 months ago. Thank you all for your help, I guess I will swing by the dealer.

Might be your throttle body going bad. Either way, have the dealer check it out.

If your new tires didn't keep the .5 to 1 inch stagger in side wall height, VDC will act up also.
