Well, im no mechanic, but usually that means its time to get your engine serviced, just bring it in to the dealership.

Check engine light, and ABS lights - Go to autozone and have it scanned. Theyll tell you whats wrong with it.
*NOTE*- When your ABS light is ON, your anti-lock braking system is non-functional.

You need a code reader, it will tell you what the problem. The dealership and most shops have them. You can buy somewhat cheap ones too. The SCT and Diablo tuners will also do this for you I believe.

The dealer ship has the best tools and knowledge of the car, they can fix it for you... im not talking about getting a new car... Most dealerships have service centers...

Well, thats probably pretty true, how long ago was your last oil change/tune up?
