Hey all,
Lately, Ive noticed that when i come to hard stop (not screeching or anything but a quicker stop) the warning "!" light and the parking brake "P" light are coming on the dash. At the same time I hear a beep from the system, and then when the car stops completely the lights go away. This doesnt happen when coming to a normal slower stop. Has anyone had experience with this and is this normal? Im wondering if this is a precursor to my brakes needing to be replaced. Ive only owned my car for a few months, so maybe this is a safety system with the car that is telling me that i am stopping too fast? Sorry if this is a dumb question, as i also dont have the original owners manual to maybe look this up. Id appreciate any advice or help!
