    Don't say his name. If you say it three times he appears.

    I think the PC member "who shall not be named" is now hanging out of the Leaf boards and we're safe for now.

    Darn it, that's twice. No one say his name a third time.

    Sounds like the OP's problem was traction control kicking in due to the low tire and/or temp spare. I didn't see anything in the dealer report that they actually fixed. Clearing the codes may have been all that was necessary.

    Thanks for following up. It does sound as though the nearly flat tire was the cause; a good reminder for everyone to go check their spares, before they are needed.

    Since you may want toreplace that junk jack, I would suggest a elec 12V that works off the accessory plug. ( Bought at Harbor freight ) It works great, but I still carry a mechanical jack from a Civic I once had, as a precaution. After the original tire was reinstalled, a reboot "may" have removed all warning lights. :cheer2:

    Do you have more info on this 12V jack? I don't think I've ever seen one when I've been in HFT before. I did just buy a nice, low profile racing jack from them a few months ago for swapping my winter and summer tires on and off the car. My small little floor jack just wasn't getting it high enough and was a lot less sturdy.

    I have never seen this Electric Jack, but will keep my eyes out for one! And the REALLY weird thing was the fact that it was accelerating AFTER I took the spare off too.

    Just ask, you may have to order if they have run out.
