well if it senses something wrong and it stays on.... then it could accidently turn on when it shouldn't and it could cause you to loose control of the car and in turn cause you to wreck which would be Nissan's fault..... so the smart thing would be to turn it off so they can't be liable for it....

Which light is flashing? The traction light, the tire pressure light or the shift light? Use a picture from the owners manual to point it out.

That is the tire pressure indicator. If it is flashing that means it isn't getting a reading from the sensors. If it is steady then the tire pressure is low (or high).

Oh, if it is the brake warning light then likely you are slightly low on brake fluid. When you accelerate hard the sensor in the reservoir gets a lower reading and the light comes on. If you did anything with the brake lines check for leaks, otherwise it has just dropped a little due to pad wear.

In the US the brake symbol is different, it says "BRAKE" instead of ((!)).
