Question Oil Level Below Min

As I was driving up a mountain on an Interstate in Utah (pushing 80, fully loaded), the OIL LEVEL BELOW MIN warning came on. I pulled over, shut the car off and waited a bit. When I checked the oil level, it was just slightly below full. Using the sensor, it came back with OIL LEVEL OK.

The same thing happened again about a week ago, except this time I didn't bother to stop. When I got home I checked the oil level, and it was just below full. Anyone else have this problem?

Its a defective oil level sensor..The Lower oil pan MUST be removed to replace it...Done several!
