So, the trio of lights came on just barely after hitting 100k on my '08 Liberty. Any diagnosis for this?
Also, just today, a few days after those lights came on, my speedometer and odometer stopped working and the brake light joined the club with the engine light following right after. Its almost like christmas on my dash. Thanks for any input.

Go to an auto parts store and see if they can get a Code # or #'s.
That will give us a better place to start.

Sounds like an issue with the wheel speed sensors or ABS module. I had the ABS, BAS/ESP, and trac lights come on intermittently around 36k due to a bad wheel speed sensor. The speedo and odometer use the wheel speed sensors to get data, so if all of them fail or the ABS module fails, they will stop working too.

You can pull the DTCs/trouble codes by turning the key quickly between ON and ACC 3 times. The odometer will be replaced by dashes and any trouble codes should start to display (They'll look like P0300 or something like that). Write those down then post them here.

I had the ABS, BAS/ESP & traction control light come on intermittently when I incorrectly replaced a faulty brake light switch. I misunderstood the directions and drove around for over a year with this annoy intermittent issue before I finally took it to my local auto parts store and pulled the code. :banghead: Oddly enough a complete failure of the brake light switch causes a check engine light but incorrectly adjusting or partial failure of the brake light switch will give you an ABS fault.

Gotta get the codes pulled 1st,90% of your el'cheapo code pullers will not pull ABS codes,you will need a higher end scanner(OEM scanner or something like the Solus Pro from Snap On).

A lot of the time that sequence of lights come on it's a faulty brake light switch
