As of late things have been going down hill for my msp. First off for some reason my break light keeps on going out and i've changed it like 10 times now and nothing. Second my ABS and Break lights keep turning on and the other day my breaks locked up on me while i was going 70 mph and heated up really bad almost catching on fire. I was wondering if this has happend to anyone else or what the blood is going on with my car.

holy shit man, glad ur still alive after the 70mph lock up, i don't know what's wrong with ur car tho, did you check the fuse for the brake light, maybe trace the brake light wire to check for a short, ABS does go bad tho, def need to get it checked, my first car was a Ford Windstar (got it for free, i couldn't complain) and the ABS went out and wouldn't work anymore

ABS sensor needs replacing. Mine did that last year, luckily right before my warranty expired. The ABS light and E-brake light would come on, the brakes will still operate normally BUT without ABS assistance.

+1 all the signs of a bad sensor.

Yes, bad sensor(s). Plus, since your brakes are locking up I would go ahead and relube everything.
