Exclamation intermittent flash of ETC light

My 05 LR 3 has lately flashed its ETC warning light (orange triangle) WHEN DRIVING ON DRY PAVEMENT AT SPEEDS OF 40-50 while entering a left hand curve. I have driven this road many times in same conditions, this has happened several more times in similar situations, is this a prediction of doom?

Sometimes an indication of suspension play... before I replaced my control arm bushings front and rear, I was getting inappropriate computer intervention in some turns, especially when suspension was being compressed in the turn.

Get the truck on a hoist and check for bushing play with a long prybar... mine had over 1/2" of slop in the bushing and progressed to the point, very quickly I might add, that it was getting dangerous to lane change on the highway.
