I would take it to the dealer anyways.... Also, call the dealer and explain your situation before driving there with her. Just to be sure that nothing will happen if you drive it tomorrow based on what you stated that happened before.

You have a faulty abs brake sensor. An intermittent problem. Car thinks you are losing traction and engages dsc. I suggest you take it to the dealer and have the sensors and connections checked. Last thing you want is for the antislip to kick in while on the highway travelling at high speed.
