abs, check tire pressure, trac off lights

i just had my hub assembly professionally replaced about a month ago, and since then every once in awhile, usually after driving for awhile, all those lights will trip and it feels like my power steering gets sluggish, i know you can damage an abs sensor if you install the hub using impact wrenches and i'm wondering if they messed up during the install and i should take it back for repair under warranty (the place i went is like an hour away) or if it may be an unrelated repair, also i am getting a rubbing noise in sync with the tire rotating while i am driving, straight or turning, is this problem related as well.

Re: abs, check tire pressure, trac off lights

Get your car scanned with an abs capable scanner at a different shop if you can, that way, the shop that did the job can't claim it's not the hub they did if that's what it turns out to be. All your signs definitely point to a bad wheel speed sensor(part of the hub bearing), but it may not be the same hub you had done. Just be nice about it until you get to the cause, don't go off demanding they fix their screw up, only to find out it's a different wheel causing the lights.

Check the wiring to and from the sensor itself also. Sometimes the wiring corrodes causing the lights to activate
