    Yes, though it will be much easier to troubleshoot when it's there. Sounds like an intermittent hardware fault - something that is hard to find unless it actually happening. Any error will come up in a scan.

    Back in the early days three years or so ago there were some people reporting similar intermittent fault warnings. I thing the general consensus was that the brake sensors were picking up dirt or dust that was causing a false reading then when the dirt or dust cleared things went back to normal.
    My light came on once after I went through a puddle so I just assumed it was water that caused the problem then as it cleared again quickly.

    yes, it hasnt affectexd ABS or traction control...I tested that out on a quiet bit of road....

    I will swing by the dealership though and get them to check it under warranty...just to be sure, and to have it documneted "just in case" of a future issue...

    Thanks for your feedback again guys!

    Only time I had something similar happen was with my old VT Commodore when it was about 6yo. It started out intermittently with the warning lights and chimes coming on for abs and traction on start up but it would reset itself if I restarted the car. It got worse over a month or so and I had to replace the abs module.
