Common issue, bad wheel sensor. Since the bearing and the sensor are one unit the bearing will also need to be replaced. Once the bearing and sensor are replaced the issue should go away.

Re: lights coming on randomly/ bad sensor?

I agree with Lynn (GTP Dad). You can jack the car up and see if one wheel has a lot of free play, which would identify the offending hub. You could also use a multimeter and check the resistance in the connector (it should be approx 1k ohms) if there is no free play. If neither of these tests fingers the bad hub, you may have to have it scanned with an ABS capable scan tool (the free scans at A-Z and Advance are not ABS capable).
