Default Coolant light!

I was crusing yesterday... and I got it up to 110 mph, and after i slowed down I got a blinking coolant light. I parked it and it went away, and I let it sit for about 5 minutes. I drove home and around later on and everything was ok and it was fine earlier today except it came on a little while ago for about it a minute. It just flashed a few times when I was going through the neighborhood. I havn't smelled anything or seen anything on the driveway?

Low coolant level? Or overheating?

I'm gonna check the coolant level in the morning. Its way to cold out, but its not overheating at all.

y didn't u check the level when the light came on? ur car won't rly overheat cuz the line for the level is way above the sensor so u have enough coolant, unless u drive it for like 3 hours straight or something. ur probably low and when the coolant swished around in the reservoir, it triggered the sensor. hopefully it's something that simple though.
