I'm wondering if this could be a problem with your wheel sensors. Try this - next time you start your car, turn the VSA off right away, before you start driving. The VSA light should come on indicating that it's off. Then once you start driving, watch the parking brake light to see if it comes on during acceleration again. If not, you could have one or more bad wheel sensors. I know this is a common problem on the 96-98's, not sure about the 2000's.
