oil sensor
The warning light came on couple times last week. It came on while I was driving but then went off couple minutes later. Is there anything I need to worry about? How much will that be if I need to replace it?

That requires immediate attention
The oil level sensor and its wiring is relatively low in the oil pan and might have been disturbed and/or failing. However, your symptoms are also identical to the oil pump failing. Assuming your oil is properly filled, you don't want to be ruining your engine driving on low oil pressure.
