It's taken nearly 2 weeks, but I finally got my civic back from the shop.

Now a new problem - right when I got home:

The red "Parking Brake" indicator simply flashed on my dashboard when I tried to set it.

Has anyone seen that? I had to turn on the car, turn off the car, and try it again for it to stay solidly on.

I had this happen twice. It was strange, both times I was trying to start the car shortly after stopping, turning the engine off, and engaging the parking brake. When trying to start the car again the parking brake light flashed and the engine would not start. After about 20 seconds it started and all systems operational as normal. This has only happened twice and it was a few days apart in occurrence.
