Today for instance in addition my low tire pressure light came on and then went out after about 30 minutes of driving. Has anyone experienced these same situations. If so what can be done to fix the problem?

Did that, you were correct the tire needed more air. However the icy road warning light comes on and goes off and comes on again as does the parking brake warning light. Any ideas on this?
Thank you for your answer and your time. I will check the brake fluid. As for the icy road warning....I live in Canada however the light comes on during the summer and believe it or not in Canada summers can be really hot, hihi.
The brake fluid was in fact low, no leaks though. And the warning lights have stop lighting up. Graze mille for the information and have a great autumn.
There is a switch on that PB cable, might need adjustment, it should go out as the parking brake comes off, it is automatic, off (releases)when you select a gear. Might just use your hand on the brake pedal, pull up on it, see if it goes out, maybe not adjusted right like cable too tight or loose, the switch is also adjustable. as for the icy road warning light, the sensor only knows freezing temps or above, that activates the light. provides a ground, maybe getting a volunteer(fault) ground if on when you are in warm weather.It doesn't hurt operation of the vehicle. Tire low warning light on when pressures are more than 3psi variance, also might be totally drivable without damaging anything, so if on the road stop and kick them, visually check that the sidewalls are uniformly pillowed. Air them to the same pressure when you find an air hose! drive about 500 ft. should go out.
