Have you done anything to your Jeep recently? Is it lifted? Steering wheel straight?

I had this happen once with about 4500 miles on the jeep, I'm at almost 18 K now, and the only other time I ever saw that light was at 45 miles an hour in fourth gear on a severe curve on a hill with a 25 mph warning sign.

Same thing happened to me, it took a while for the light to go out but it did. I don't get why it stayed on so long??

sorry. the po884 was totally unrelated. that was a old code for the stall bug that was never cleared. i cleared it. so the esp/bas light threw no codes, so the dealer would have nothing to look at. ill keep my eye on it i guess...

Happens to me every once in a while. Light comes on for a bit then shuts off.
