Default Jeep computer and idiot lights are malfunctioning.

I started my jeep this morning and the ABS, ESP/BAS, the vehicle with squiggly lines under it are all illuminated on my dash. I have a stock setup rubicon and have done nothing to cause this "I think". Anyhow I parked my jeep lastnight and everything was fine and this morning I started it up to let it warm up before I take off to work and the idiot lights are staying on. I tried to refresh them by restarting it if that is even refreshing them. No luck. It drove fine to work which is an hour away but the lights were still on when I reached work. Any thoughts or suggestions before I call the stealership. I just love taking my jeep in to the shop. I belive I am up to around 24 times of taking it in to have it looked at for something in a little over a year....

Thanks for any suggestions....

I think the speed sensor was replaced not that long ago. I was in an accident and that wheel was the one that was damaged. Supposedly they fixed everything but apparently not. Any ideas why the speed sensor would be going out?

The lights went out this morning. The dealer will be getting a chance at it on Friday. I am hoping they replace the sensor this time instead of just doing a flash like the last.

Thanks for the info
