What's wrong, in plain English
Certain Chevrolet, GMC, and Cadillac SUVs and trucks may have a software problem in the brake control module. This software is supposed to turn on a warning light when the brake fluid level gets too low, but it may fail to do so. Because of this, a driver might not realize the brake fluid is low, since the vehicle isn't giving them the warning it's designed to show.
What you should do

3. The software update is free and may be applied automatically over-the-air or by a dealer.
