After the sales dept. told me that the light SHOULD be on, I did some research and dicovered that there wa a TSB on the issue (08-015-04). SYMPTOM/CONDITION: Vehicles not equipped with ABS brakes may have the ABS, BRAKE, and TRAC OFF lamps illuminated on the instrument cluster or vehicles not equipped with Sentry Key Immobilizer (SKIM) may have the Security/VTA lamp illuminated on the instrument cluster. I brought this to the service departments attention and they were able to clear the instrument cluster of all learned features instead of replacing the instrument cluster.
