On cold mornings the "Brake" warning lite in the instrument cluster stays on
for up to 15 minutes while driving the car (with the emergency brake off).
Any ideas what causes this?

Check the brake fluid level. I had similar problem with GSR 99 a couple of
weeks ago. It's gone away after I opened the cap on brake fluid reservoir.

The reservoir was low. I filled it and the light went off. Thanks Larry
