Default VSA

So last night I started my car up completely normally and the VSA light is stuck on, as is the exclamation mark next to it. This means that my VSA isn't operating I assume. It was the first really cold night of the season here in SoCal- the temperature was around high 30's to low 40's. I drove my car again today this afternoon, in 60 degree temperatures and the light is still stuck on. I bought the car brand new and it now has about 56k on the odometer. Any ideas why this is happening? Is this a normal occurrence for 2007 models?

The brake light was on, but it turned off on it's own maybe 10-15 min later. When I drove the car following day the VSA light was no longer on. I think it's due to worn out brakes from what you guys have described because it's about time to service them anyway; I can feel a slight shudder/fade when braking hard.

Its the tpms that is reading low tire pressure you might have one on the borderline. When it got colder the pressure went down triggering the tpms. when ever the tpms is on the vsa light will also come on. You can't turn off the VSA with the tpms is lit.
Adjust your tire pressure and you should be good.
