Default 3 Warning lights Come On Randomly

i did a few searches on this and it didnt turn up anything so im sry if this is a repost. my problem is that i have 3 lights that turn on all at the same time randomly(ABS, VSA, & the VSA Activation light). when i turn off the car and turn it bak on the lights remain off for awhile till i contiune to drive for w.e amount of time b4 they come bak on. it started happening last week and has gotten progressively more frequent(twice tonight). the car drives perfectly fine but i rly dont want to have to find out the hard way that i rly dont have my abs or vsa perks. is there anything that i can do to fix this or anything that i could try to figure out what could be causeing this(fuse, sensor, ecu). taking it to the dealer is kind of a last resort if it can be, i cant risk not having the car for the day becuz they have to many cars or not enough techs or for w.e reason they might have for me. any help is seriously appreciated. thanx in advance

Still under 36K?

Go to a dealer and get the codes pulled.

even if the speedometer is styll counting and working. when i turn the car on after they have been on(the drive b4) the lights will stay on until i start driving then they turn off. i dont rag on the car at all. it happens when i driving normally at random moments, but the car continues to drive perfectly fine.

what wheels and tires do you have? If they are not proper sizes it can cause issues with the vsa and abs system.

If all of those lights are on a code has been stored.

A dealer can get them.

do u think they give me shyt about the intake having something to do with the issue, or should i just suk it up and revert bak to my stock intake. when i left class today to go home the lights never came on which is making me belive that it's completly random. do u think thats a possiblity(maybe a dirty sensor or something along those lines)
