A brake warning can have more than one meaning. Start by checking that the parking brake is fully released. If the light remains on, a brake-system issue may need attention; the symbol alone cannot tell you which component is responsible.
A red brake warning accompanied by poor braking, a soft pedal, or a fluid leak is a reason to stop safely and arrange assistance. Share those details with 12th Street Auto Care Center before deciding to drive to the shop. Your vehicle's manual provides the instructions specific to that warning.
