I start the car in the morning and I get a malfunction, Check Brake Lights. It's not a big deal to me, it's something very minor and easy to fix. As I'm driving to work I stop at a red light and I look at the screen where the malfunctions are (where mileage is) and the whole screen is filled with exclamation points of all kinds of sizes, fat, thin, etc... It also had weird symbols around where the temperature and mileage is. I restarted the car and everything was fine for the rest of the day. Do you think it's something to be worried about? What do you think this is?

I did manage to take a picture of what it looked like from my phone, but since my phone was rebooted on Friday because it was broken, I lost all my programs on there, I now have to sync some stuff from my computer for it to work. Then I can send the picture.

Sounds like it might be new battery time to me!! When a battery is getting low, you can get a lot of weird electrical problems. :eyecrazy

Probably is, the battery light lit up recently and my alarm goes off randomly.
