Brake light flashes on and off
Every once in awhile my brake light will flash on the dash board. Is this telling me something with my brakes are going bad? It only used to come on when I applied my e-brake but now it comes on at other times also. Please help if you can thanks

Have you looked at the brake fluid level ?? If you are between 40-60k miles you probably need front pads. Don't add fluid, when the pads are replaced the level will return.

make sure you also check for any leaks. When that light comes on, either you are low on fluid, or you have a leak somewhere. Or the sensor has a intermittent connection.
