I understand. Although, I consulted my manual which says if its red it is low brake fluid and/or TPM failure. I checked the brake fluid and it was fine and I've noticed no difference in driving dynamic, which leads me to believe it is sensor related.

I agree with you I probably shouldn't be driving, but the red came on just this last week and my 30k service appt is wednesday so I'll hold out till then. I do watch my speed and stopping distance much more right now just incase (and always have my hand by the emergency brake )
