A good place to start would be to check your Owner's Manual for the meaning of the icon.

Cool, once you tell us which icon was lit, we can start chewing the fat trying to figure out what happened.

300C SRT W/5.7 engine

New 300 driver. I love the look and feel of the car. The ride on this one seems stiffer than a couple of the ones I test drove. It has the run flat tires and see to ride ruff when cold.

Hmmm, how is it that you have an SRT with only a 5.7 liter engine? FWIW, I'm 99.9% positive that all SRTs have a 6.1 liter (i.e. 426 Cubic Inches) Hemi. Yes, no?
Regarding your complaint about the RFTs, it is completely consistent with that from drivers of every other RFT shod car on the road.
Best Regards,

There's a 300C SRT Design for $39,000 MSRP with the 5.7L. There's also a 300C SRT8 for $44,385 MSRP with the 6.1L.

Run flat tires always ride a bit firmer than regular tires. Your premium option tires have a extremely thick 1/2" sidewall that is designed to be capable of suspending the weight of your car without being inflated. The advantages far outweigh the minor change in ride when cold. The run flat design reduces the sidewall flex to a minimum making the tires corner very well without having to go with the 20" rim and low profile tires to get the same effect. I prefer the standard 18" size rims and better tires on my 300C's. They also improve mileage and run cooler. Wet and dry traction is far better than the stock continental tires the car wore out of the factory. I was down to the wear bars after only 20,000 miles, so I upgraded to Michelin run flats about a month ago. These are the exact same tires that come on BMW SUV's. Although they are a little expensive, I should get about three times the wear out of these tires. They are also substantially quieter on all kinds of pavement.

That was your tire pressure monitor. If it was a cold night you tires probably lost some pressure but it went away when they warmed up.

That is true. The yellow exclamation symbol indicates that one or more of your tires has less than 30 psig air pressure. The computer menu will show the individual tires pressures and the low one(s) will be blinking. I usually keep mine inflated (cold) to 34 psig, and they will run about 36 psig when they warm up on the road.
