W e L c O m E!!what three lights... would be my question? you talk about three lights but only mention the one about the low tire pressure.My first check would be pressures which you have already checked.second... would be sensors ABS being you have AWD... or in your case ADW HAHA check the sensors to see if they are damaged.Third.. check for engine codesIf no codes are present disconnect the battery for about 10 mins then reconnect it to reset the computer. If the lights come back you could have a bad wheel sensor in reguards to the low tire pressure system. Have you recently had any work done where the tires needed to be removed? Recent brake work? Run over a curb, dog, or kid? JK

All three of the lights on in question tie into one thing - the ABS. Sounds like you've got a pretty significant ABS failure - could be a bad sensor, computer, wiring harness - who knows. Hopefully your regular brakes are working, but keep in mind you don't have ABS at this point. I wouldn't be wanting to drive the car that much with those lights on. If it were just the ABS light it may not be that big of a deal but if the brake warning light is on that isn't a good sign. Not much I can suggest other than get it to a dealer.Hope you get it squared away and welcome.

unless you drive a lot, an 06 should still be under warranty. Get it to a dealer , get it fixed for free. Don't trust the brakes until it is fixed, it may be something minor, but the car thinks something is seriously wrong
