Got into the car on Thursday, started it up and a lightbulb symbol appears on the rev dial (which I know to be the lights aren't functioning properly) and consequently checked them, of which results were found (left brake broken). Impressed me immensely. Then turned it on on Friday and a message now comes up 'left rear brake light not working!' Luckily, the car is only 498km off it's 30,000km service, so it'll be replaced them (and that's only a week or so away).

Coming from a Jap car, I never knew this sort of convenience existed!
