traction control engaging while car is stopped?
so today for the 2nd time in the past month, the traction control on the car randomly engaged while the car was stopped at a stop light, both times the car was stopped for a while before it happened. if i put the car into park it would disengage.
has anyone else encountered this?

It's probably the hill hold feature. If you depress the brake all the way when completely stopped, the light flashes. When you let off the brake, it will hold a few seconds then release.

That happened to me the other day too! For the same reason. I was stretching actually and it happened. I pressed in the brakes all the way a few more times to make sure that was what was triggering it.
So what is this hill hold feature? What's the functionality of this? Is it to stop the vehicle from rolling backwards on a hill before getting on the gas?

I use it when at a light. I activate it, release the pedal and then lightly hold it. No excessive pressure is required.
