Does the '99 have a traction control over-ride button like the '98? I know on my '98 if I hit that the light comes on and stays on until I either hit it again or re-start. It is possible she inadvertintly hit the over-ride button and didn't realize it?

Also, sometimes you can be driving behind a car that's leaking fuel and attribute it to your own car. It happens when you have in your mind there's something wrong and you are looking for causes.

Sometimes when we look too hard we find troubles that don't really exist is all I am saying...if the car otherwise ran fine I would ignore these two "symptoms" for now and if they occurred again then look into them if it was my car.
