Broken tone wheel caused light to come on. They replaced entire drive axle instead of tone wheel, could not get a seal that fit after changing drive axle, and caused a massive leak (oil) from somewhere that is still leaking. I'm afraid to take the vehicle on a long trip for fear I will need to replace the transaxle (about $ 3,000) repair. They tell me the vehicle is Korean made and they change the part numbers on the seals all the time. The dealership went through every seal they had and still no success with correct seal. Only option is drive until it breaks down or trade it in before it does.
