warning light

Hi all - i have a 2009 EOS and am currently having an issue with it. The warning light on the dashboard keeps telling me that the hood/bonnet is open when it is, in fact, closed. This means I cannot get the windshield washers working which as you can imagine is proving problematic. Does anyone...

Does anyone else have this issue? I take a curve a little fast and the "Warning: Engine Off, Pull Over Immediately" light flashes on even though the engine is still running. Should I be concerned? Is there something I should do about this?

Any advice please. I have a vw eos fsi 2006. I've only owned it since July - loving it! Tonight a speed warning light came on. Does anyone have any idea what this means? Thanks in advance.
