it is most likely your brake switch. I just replaced mine, had the same problem. If your car still is in warranty it should be covered. If you feel like doing it yourself, the part is around $20 and there are instructions on alldata.com

my cruize control went out after 60 mph, due to my new wheels

I had the same problem with the light coming on. Check your SpeedSensor and Brake sensor connection under your tire fendors.

Is your throttle response weaker than before? If so, you'll probably need to replace your Speed Sensor. That is a common problem due to a weak design of the sensor.

i didnt feel any change on the throttle or acceleration of the car. the ABS and BAS lights came on when i turned 90 degrees at 40-50 kmh i didnt even depress the brakes

It' smostly likely a bad Speedsensor or Brake Sensor connection under fender. If you take off your front tiresm, you should be able to see the 2 Wire connections under the fender. Go make sure those connections are good by pressing it hard...

Then drive your car for a couple of blocks and it should turn off.
