That is a very common issue. Its a wheel hub sensor crapping out. The OEM unit has the ABS sensor located INSIDE the wheel bearing and when you turn the wheel at full lock it pulls on the wiring. Eventually they crack and will cause the ABS to malfunction so the car turns it off and you get the 3 lights coming on. When those lights come on its almost ALWAYS a faulty wheel speed sensor.

thanks that is exactly what I was looking for. Kinda what I was thinking. Too bad it is internal.
As for the code reader my school has a Genisys so I will find out what it is when it starts on Monday
Also thanks everyone for the input.
I could use some opinions
First of all I would like to say thank you for looking at this.
now for the problem I own a 2006 (yeah I realize this is 2008 and up site but I'm hoping someone can help me) Chevy malibu with 60K.
tonight out of the blue the car dinged three times and the abs light, traction control off light, and the brake light came on. nothing seemed wrong but It worried me a little so any help would be appreciated.
