Hey guys, I have been having this issue for some time but haven't really done much with it because the Stinger isn't my DD.

Two things that occur and I think may be related possibly. Whenever driving I will randomly get a warning light for the AWD system, any time this turns on I never notice any difference in the driving and turning the car off and on will get rid of the light for some time till it randomly pops up again.
Now this other issue I have occurs more frequently and its pretty predictable. Whenever i let my car sit for a couple days, like a weekend, the next time I go to drive it the first couple turns (from a stop) the traction control warning will flash and the car will cut power to the wheels for a couple seconds and then resume. This only happens on the first couple turns and then will continue driving like normal.

2019 GT2 AWD w/ aftermarket wheels, JB4, catback exhaust, and CAIs

I thought it might have to do with a faulty sensor or something, but I've been dreading taking it to the dealer because I dont want the run around about how they cant find the issue or replicate it.
 
what size are the wheels
 
sounds like a wheel speed sensor may be faulty... would explain the awd light and traction light if the car things a wheel isn't turning at the same rate as the others ..

This sounds pretty plausible. The weirdest thing to me is how it only really happens when the car has been sitting for a couple days and only the beginning of the drive

yea, the best bet would be to get the car scanned with a scanner that can read all the sensors and see if you see any irregularities with those... could be when it's cold there is a tiny short and when it warms up a little it makes contact?
 
From interior to exterior to high performance - everything you need for your Stinger awaits you...
