It's reminding you to take your car in for the 15k miles service.

Did I read it right that you have a 2000 model with just 13k miles?

No, you should especially bring it in if it's a 2000 model. You can also have them check on the axle nut, taillight, and oil jets TSBs while you're at it. Congrats on getting your hands on a mint example. Take pics.

most dealerships wont just examine TSB issues on your car unless they have speculation it could be causing another problem you are currently having. i tried to get them to check out a few and they said they would charge me.

all that light means you are due for some kind of service either it be oil change, or diff. service or any other type of stuff. nothing big. if you keep up on your own maintanence the just force retrieve the maintenance code and you are good to roll. unless you like that light that shows up then just dont worry about it.
