    curious if this could be a shortage of some sort. But the dash brake light won't go out when it's cold outside?

    check your brake fluid. otherwise it's your e-brake handle not retracting all the way. mine does the same thing in winter :)

    sometimes your parking brake needs adjusted ever so slightly to get the light to turn off.
