Brake light and vdc turning off while accelerating.

Within the last few weeks I started seeing that while accelerating quickly, for example an on ramp to a freeway, the brake light in the instrument panel would turn on and then turn off when I slowed down. This has happened quite often. More rarely I've started to notice there are times where the vdc off light turns on and the slip light stays on. These lights will stay on until the car is turned off and the vdc button is unresponsive. If anyone has any insight on the problem please help.

you just need to top off your break fluid. the sensor is near the front of thencar so when you accelerate the car thinks its out of fluid. fill it up and itll go away

btw there are already a few posts on this try searching first next time.

Yes it does, its to get your attention.
Looks like it worked, just refill/flush brake fluid depending on total miles.
Plus sounds like you drive hard
