The oil light comes on when the oil level is EXTREMELY low. You could possibly have a malfunctioning light or sensor, if your oil level is ok.

As far as I know, the car doesn't have a low oil level switch, just a low oil pressure swith. First off, you can check to make sure the wire is plugged in to the switch (to the left of the oil filter) If that isn't the case, have a shop hook up a oil pressure gauge to the motor to make sure that there isn't a oil pressure problem (which would mean you got a crappy motor) No matter what I would get it checked out right away because if the sensor is doing what it is supposed to, you could have motor problems.
