Sorry, BD - jrandom is correct, and you're trying to defend an indefensible position.
Either you're saying the traction control makes the front end (makes it what?), or you're saying the traction control operation is triggered/enabled/activated by what the the front end is doing.
Either way, you need to either reword that sentence, or change 'effect' to 'affect'. Makes no sense otherwise.
So....
It should either say, "It 'appears' to only affect the front. ie come into play if the front looks like breaking loose." (Which makes perfect sense).
The effect of the traction control only kicks in when the front starts to break loose, and only affects the back.
Or (and this would only work if it were front-wheel drive):
"It (the traction control) 'appears' to only effect drive to the front . ie come into play if the front looks like breaking loose."
Or, if it were ABS, and not traction control:
It 'appears' to only effect the retardation of the front brakes. ie come into play if the front looks like breaking loose.
(Well... someone has to nitpick grammar now that Hitcher's on vacation...)
