Vehicle Speed Control, electronic Stability Control (esc), service Brakes

MY TRACTION CONTROL LIGHT HAS BEEN STAYING ON SOMETIMES THE VAN ACCELERATES ON ITS OWN AND SERVICE STABILITY LIGHT COMES ON. TOO THE BRAKES HAVE A GRINDING CATCH IN BRAKE PEDAL WHEN PUSHING IT WHEN GOING DOWN MY DRIVEWAY. ALSO THE VAN HAS HESITATION ON STARTING YOU HAVE TO GIVE IT GAS TO START. THESE PROBLEMS HAPPEN WHILE YOURE DRIVING. I JUST HAD A NEW TRANSMISSION PUT IN, BUT THESE PROBLEMS STARTED BEFORE MY TRANSMISSION WENT OUT.
