It’s the front hubs that warn you of ABS and traction control.

Lol, I'm sorry. Clearly I'm not well knowledgeable about stuff like these. To be honest, I'm only know trying to know the ins and outs of cars and vehicles. So I do apologize for my lack of any form of knowledge.

I'll be taking the car to O'reilly tomorrow morning. My mechanic knows someone from there that can give me a reading on the errors and find me the right sensors.

I'll come back with the actual codes for what it is and see if I can learn some more.

Again, I apologize for any brain aneurysms

That’s ok, when you’re ready I’ll give you the part numbers so you can order new front hubs, don’t buy them at O’Reilly’s and just write down the code, not the explanation the parts counter guy gives you.

when I first got my 09 the ABS and traction would intermittently come on, my issue was a bad ABS sensor... after a hub replacement it was fine

currently I'm running with all the same lights you have (except the tire pressure), had my buddy pull the code, I need to replace my ABS control module (he already tried reflashing it), I'm just putting it off for now... like you said, it drives and brakes fine, I just keep in mind that my ABS and my traction control are currently inop, so I try not to speed too bad on rainy days LOL

(and yes the 'brake' light is on, even thou it's not related to the parking brake)

Update

Okay, so, I’M BACK WITH SOME KNOWLEDGE!!

These were the codes found on the scanner when I ran it through the Chevy HHR:

C0550
P0573
P0621

I tried doing my own research and ask local auto part stores of what they might think it is.

So what heathenhhr said, that’s what we are going to try out first, which is replacing the ABS sensor entirely. It’s a bit pricey, but I, again, think is the solution.

I unplugged and plugged back in the battery and found that now I start the car and it’s not till I accelerate to a certain MPH that it starts beeping with all the service notices (prior it used to just do it as soon as the car started up).

Again, I am asking for help. I am grateful for what you guys have been suggesting and I appreciate the patience you all have with me. I’m new to cars and I’ve barely got my hands “dirty” with one before.
