Walk out to my auto and it was setting extremely low, started it and a red warning light came on saying stop car to low. It will not rise up, do not here the pump running to raise it. Looked in the fluid container on the driver side close to the front of the car there is no fluid on the check stick.

You will have to fill the oil and run the system to find the leak, if you are not able to do this, you will have to get it towed, check at each suspension unit for a leak, you may have blown a strut seal.

ABC systems are EXTREMELY expensive to fix. My uncle had an SL500 with ABC and they wanted $22k to fix it! He did a Active Body Control Conversion on it and is still driving it today.
