Check Engine/Check VSC Light came on
So, took my car to the dealer yesterday for:
-oil
-alignment
-fuel sensor recall
Drove home (all of 10 miles) and this morning on the way to work the check engine/vsc light came on...
Should I take it to the dealer? Or autozone to scan it? Could what the dealer did cause those lights?

probably a loose hose, take it back to the dealer. Same ish' happened to me after a recall work was performed on my car. They accidentally left a hose loose which kept on triggering a VSC/check engine light to pop in an out.

Step 2a: If you're out of warranty, go to Autozone or your local auto shop and have them read the code(s) with an OBDII scanner. Better yet, pick one up yourself for $40. Check the codes online or post on here and do some research.
Step 2b: If you're in warranty, take it back to the dealer and tell them to fix it.
It's likely related to what they did, and it's likely something simple (MAF sensor connector not re-connected after the work, etc).
