Angry Service Brake System Displayed Across DIC

Today I drove to my office at 6:30am this morning. Truck set all day until about 5:30pm. Got in it and started it up, and this displayed across the DIC screen with rapid chimming: SERVICE BRAKE SYSTEM
Come to find out it has something to do with the Anti-lock brakes.
Took it into dealer and they gave me a rental as usual.
This will be the 10th time in for just brake service.
I was going to just deal with the rear drums making noises and pulsating, but this just gave me a reason to give them an ear full of complaining about it again.
I was told that it would be directed through the local GM rep again...
Guess we will see what they will do this time around.
The park lock has also been acting up as well. It clicks really loud when placed in park from drive, (I do set the parking braking first, then place in N let foot off brake pedal, let it rest on parking brake, then place it in PARK) or when it has sat a while and I go to start up the engine the torque twist upon start-up makes it click loud as well.
Wish me luck once again!

Jim

The funny (an overstatement ) thing about it, when I got there, the light had already gone off! I turned it off and back on, and it would not come back on.
A tech there said it would have a code saved in the PCM.
Well, I called the dealership about an hour ago ,and they said that it did not leave a stored code or they have yet to get it to come back on.
So.... they are still trying, but I doubt it will do it! That's my luck though.
