So twice now after morning "start ups" which seem to be sluggish like the battery is almost drained (i dont drive the car daily) I get a SERVOTRONIC warning message with the "steering wheel" looking sign in the message board...Once I idle for about a minute i turn the car off and back on and it disappears!!!
Should I be concerned and take to stealership or what?
I have the extended cpo warranty till 2012. If thats even covered?

Thanks for any Info you may have!

These cars have issue with the battery. Given your driving schedule, likely the battery is not getting charged enough and when that happens you can get erratic error messages. Sounds like your issue.
