Default 09 is250 had this happen to any of you

Got a 09 is250 with 44xxx miles and just yesterday notice that when I was making a left turn going about 45mph the red triangle light came on and my interior lights came on and the dinging noise came on then everything went away after I completed the turn then today as I'm heading to work it happened again going about 25-30mph when I was making a left turn and it did it again but went away by the way the road way was wet when I was making the turns what causes this is it caused by trAction by the way my trac is off

You're probably going significantly too fast for the conditions for it to be able to make the car ding like that. When it happened, it does cut the power to the engine as well.

I can make the that alert go and and off on snow from standing start gunning it on purpose to see how the car would react.

CHECK THE DOOR,
if it cause from slippery, the interior light won't ever come on (only traction warning came on). He's talking about TRIANGLE WARNING AND INTERIOR LIGHT IS ON. test it with driving while the door is opened and you will have your answer.

Solution:
put your car in drive (a friend is needed for safety) try to push the doors hard while i locked (from inside the car) you will find out with one is fail. there is a DIY how to fix door plug
good luck!

Oh the door plug, thought the OP is was slipping ha ha.

Yes, then whitebeat's way of diagnosing would be the way to confirm this issue.
