Okay, so bought her used late Sept. with 15k miles. At 17,500 had state inspection and Schedule A maintenance done end of Jan., mainly to have her a once over to catch anything before the warranty ran out, so today with 19k, on starting up a "Check Brake Wear" warning message comes on, click "ok" and warning message goes away, put her in D and a red "Brake" warning come on and stays on throughout drive time. Inspection and Schedule A maintenance, everything was great, so any ideas as to why now this would be displaying? Something automatic because getting close to 20k? Thanks!

 

At first I thought your car is still under a warranty of sorts. IF that is true, just take it in and let them scan/fix it. After that, I am pretty sure the receipt (and a conversation with the service manager) you'll know what was up (that failed). Good luck!

Hey thanks for the quick reply.

Yesterday's "activity" was taking her to the dealership, first they checked the pad wear, (which I knew shouldn't have been a problem) "nope pads are okay, and sensor shouldn't be sending alert", so then they went onto "must be a failed brake sensor" changed that out, still had the alert. In the end, turns out a chipmunk or mouse chewed at the wire bundle running along the top of the frame, behind the right front wheel well, and chewed off one of the wires in the brake senor lead bundle on the engine side. GRRRR!!!! They resoldered the wire and taped it all back up, but as you know not an easy place, no room to work in!!!
