CEL illuminated, after free software update the Brake Pedal Position Sensor was found to be inoperative. This was replaced under extended warranty. BRAKE lamp illuminated w/"BRAKE FLUID LOW- SERVICE URGENT" message. Dealer found brake fluid low, but no leak in brake system. Likely fluid is leaking in the Clutch Slave Cyl, but diagnosis would cost over $1100, so filled fluid only for now.
