Me too last Friday night up in the mountains, it went down to -32 C (-25 F) while driving at 11pm, I've never seen it that low!

So here I am in the cold dark, about 200KM from home, at midnight and these not 2, not 3 but 4 warnings start popping up in succesion:
My rear brake pads finally got low enough to pop up the maintenance warning, hopefully I can still brake!
The air pressure warning came on, Great I was hoping its not a real puncture! It was a bumpy icy road and because of that cold, lower pressure but my tires are at their limit, I need to buy new winters soon.
Then low oil warning: please stop soon to add some oil, Oh no there are no stores for good oil in this area hopefully I can make it! I am soon due for the oil change so it's probably just a tad low and missing half a quart.
And then last but not least, LOW battery warning, shutting off non essential electronics like the interior lights, Great now my battery is maybe dead and I wont be able to start it in the morning!


But it warmed up to 0 F during the next 2 days and started fine with no more battery warning and got to buy a quart of oil to add.
