Best thing to do is get a scan ( Diagnostic free from Autozone) if she's drivable take it first thing. That's my $0.02 cents, others may chime in.
08 xB Electrical Gremlins
Parked my xB for a couple of days. 2 days later when I started up, the brake light, Anti-lock and VSC were lit up, and stayed on for awhile. Nothing was illuminated when I parked. Now it has happened somewhat intermittently. Thoughts/Experiences???

the computer is throwing codes
you need a reader to see them or a trip to Auto zone as suggested
that will tell you what the problem might be
good luck

It could be anything but an 08 with intermittent lights the best bet is the speed sensor. I owned two 08 and they both did that. One I was able to clean and the other I had to replace the hub and harness. Get the codes read and go from there.
As soon as I have time, I will do that. It seems to be the general consensus. Lately it hasn’t occurred again.. that could change the next time I start it up. Thanks for taking the time to reply.

Just a wild guess here, but could potentially be a temperature / weather change issue?
