I just noticed as I was on my way home, that when I make a somewhat "hard" turn, at about 30mph, the Red Oil Light Illuminates while in the motion of turning. When the turn ends, and I straighten out, the light goes back off, and so on and so forth...
Any idea what could be causing this...? I'm 99% sure that my oil isn't low

check again!! its the only reaspn why your light will come on .. same thing happens to mine when i close due for a oil change and mines burn oil so i know for a fact that its low...
Low oil is the main/obvious cause. My MX6 gulps oil, I don't care much about the car anymore so I don't keep track of it very well. I had the same thing happening to me the past couple days before I poured a gallon of oil into her belly lol. It would also light up when my car left the road to on those crazy cottage roads

Oil consumption can dramatically increase near the end of your interval, if youre already consuming oil.
Know your oil level right now before going into the dealer. Do not take it in below the min fill line. They could refuse warranty. 1 qt is the distance from min to max. and no oil on the dipstick is at least 2 qts low. if you find it low, ask for the consumption test. It's the proper way to address the issue. Going in without oil, even if you did check it 3 weeks ago, might not go well w/ warranty.
