Get the codes run.

I have this funny feeling that something like ice formed on your lines by the wheels and you may have ripped the abs sensor or maybe the yaw sensor wire. Friend just had that happen in Vermont, could be same for you, especially since you are in MI. I would run it for codes first. Check bake fluid level too.
