Ok I purchased a 2007 coupe 5AT back in may and after only 1800 miles on the car my brake warning light is already on.

For the first 1200 miles I followed break in rules, but since then there has been some agressive driving.

I did leave the emergency brake on once for about 3/4 of a mile by accident.
I have the sport suspension package if that helps.

Im taking the car in tuesday to the dealership. Any help would be appreciated.

Thank You in advance.

 

Bump.

By leaving the emergency brake on what have I damaged and what will need to be fixed/replaced. Also how much will this cost me?

Any imformation would be great like which rotors and pads were damaged?

Please help, Thank you.

 

The warning light was actually my tire pressure light.

But someone PLEASE tell me how much if any damage I have done by leaving the emergency brake on for about a mile?

Thank you again

 

No biggie...I had the e-brake on my suv for more than a mile. Think of it as 1 month of normal braking equaling to the one mile of e-brake. lol

Check the pressure of the tire before taking the car to the dealer. Don't want your tires to be riding under 30psi. Might have a nail which the dealer will convince you to replace rather than patching.

Thank you for your help, I was freaken out thinken I already killed my rotors.

I actually just got back from putting air in the tires all were about a half a pound low except for the front right that was 4 pounds low.

The light has turned off and im happy again, ahhh (sigh of relief)

 

You can't kill your rotors with the parking brake. It uses small shoes in drums inside the rear rotors, not the regular pads and rotor surfaces.
