Default Fault lights

Has any one gotten fault lights from temperature changes? I have gotten 2 fault light when the temperature gets below freezing. So far it has been a parking brake fault and suspension fault. It only seems to happen under freezing. I park the car in my garage and in the morning no faults. The garage stays about 50 degrees. If I leave work and its below 32 I get a suspension fault. I left work the other day and it was 34 degrees out and no problems. I'm about 99% sure the bags aren't leaking. I took it to my mechanic the first time and the the code reported a leak.

A low battery can indicate faults that arent there
Happened in mine and was replaced under warranty
Not saying same problem is same as yours but worth checking out especially as cold can affect batteries!

I do think there is a good possibility of this being the fault. I will have to get the battery tested. One of the codes flagged was low voltage. I figured it was from me installing new subs and configuring the audio system with the car not running. I have noticed that my battery maintainer does come on when I just open the trunk. I don't think the battery should drop low enough for the charger to turn on from just a couple lights.
