You should be able to make it to the dealer. There are a number of reasons Service Traction comes on. As them on any recalls.

Most likely a wheel sensor is bad or the related wiring. Drive it to the dealership.

Change the crank sensor. It is located behind the starter. Will cause it to jerk ,stable traction and service suspension lights to come on
