the freestyle has a CVT transmission (constantly variable transmission) you probably noticed that you really feel the trans shift like a normal transmission does. would get it scanned. when traction control light is on that normally points to a transmission or drive train problem if its all wheel drive make sure to check the PTU (power transfer unit) its a mini transfer case and has been known to leak if it runs low on fluid (1 quart approx. max fill) it will cause major issues
