More than likely an issue with a wheel speed sensor.
Dealership is one of the few places that can tell which one. Sadly.


Mine are on all the time.

Probably because it thinks your driving on jackstands still.

Check your tire pressure. Make sure tires all look good, etc. If one tire is slightly deflated and/or worn down more than the other side and you go around a gradual corner, the speed of each tire can get significant enough to cause the light to go on. Most likely it's a faulty sensor though.
