Error Message!!??

So I start the car after parking for about 20 minutes then dash starts blinking 3 malfunction and a yellow light blinks on the lower right side beneath the RPM. Then it cycles through saying Brakes failures or BBS, and then it shows the airmatic screen and something else.I proceed to turn off the car then back on and it goes away?? Please help is this a glitch because the weather was pretty hot here 96 degrees today, but around 85 degrees when this happened. Anyways thanks for any help!

Problem!

I started my car just last night at around 8pm. After working since 10am I was looking forward to my half hour drive home except before I could even leave the parking light a red message appears on the screen and says BRAKE CHARGE - VISIT WORKSHOP. I call roadside (keep in mind my warrantee's expired) So I agree to having it towed to my dealership and left in the parking lot except they're all out of trucks, or broken. So finally I had to have it towed to a 24/hr gas station / mechanic shop where they'll try to fix the problem for me tomorrow. Reason why I did is because I think it's the belt that broke and even heard the same guess from the Mercedes roadside technician but was hoping someone here might know for sure. The car's got 56k miles and I even did hear slight squeaking from the belt earlier this morning.

Problem solved. Had it fixed for $85. It was just the belt.
