My 2001 has it, so I'd expect later models do too. There are electronic sensors at the pads which are supposed to trigger a warning light with pad wear. They are often disconnected by folks using performance pads (as they are usually watching the pad wear). My user manual covers the indicator, look under "warning lights".
