    park on concrete over night to see if oil is leaking, check the oil filter and the dip-stick tube are both tight. And take your car to a mechanics lol

    sounds like you have a block pick up and not enough oil in there when you brake/turn hard it runs moves away from the pick up and it cant get any causing the light to come on
