I doubt its much of an issue, that once happened to me, except it went away after 2miles, I was already on my way to the dealer haha.
Also when I serviced the trucks intake, I forgot to replug the MAF harness tot he sensor and I was having the exact same issues, but figured it out after I drove around the block once.
Lastly, check to make sure all you ARS sensor plus are intact and plugged in behing each wheel/tire.

Dude. I got two of those messages- albeit intermittently on a 05 yukon slt- i got one of those code clearers and traded it in and still got near 16k for it with 100k miles- i also bought a 10 denali which i love- i would try the same thing just abort!!!!

lol, back to normal (kinda) now... i went to a touch free car wash right before that happened so mabey the high pressure water got into something? However, now i still have the check engine light on, not sure if there is still an issure or if its staying on because of all the codes that were pulled earlier. Can i clear the light myself? or do i have to take it to a stealership?

I had a freaky occurrence with a drive thru wash in an 03 Denali... the speedometer went haywire and went all the way around and got stuck in between drive and neutral
