I have had recent electronic message: "Brake Failure Stop Safely ASAP", once this message appears, a few seconds later the tach and speedometer go to zero. The symbols light up on the right side of the dash (!), ABS, skidding car. The odometer no longer functions. The fuel guage and clock continue to function. Brake fluid level seems OK. After restarting the message goes away, typically coming back several minutes later. Dealer downloaded a software update, but this hasn't eliminated the problem, however, it has eliminated other messages "transmission service required", "Engine Service Required", etc. The only constant is the brake message. On a unrelated note (I think), I have had SRS Airbag message on for a few weeks, Dealer says I require a Air Bag Control Module.
