Does anyone know what the flashing red exclamation point on my dashboard means?

I can't find the manual for my car, but it's been flashing for the last three days.  I tried googling and I found several different answers.  If I can't figure it out I will call the dealership, but I don't want them to tell me to bring it in if it's an easy fix that I don't have to spend a ton of money on.

It's a Nissan Armada if that makes a difference.

What year is your car?

Also, I'm going to guess either oil change needed, out of gas, or some sort of "engine" problem.

vallyhoo

if it's this it means your air pressure in your tire is low

is it in a triangle?

on my old car, that meant low tire pressure.

You should be able to find the manual for your car online.

Tire pressure? I think I get something like that on my Toyota when I need to add air to my tires.

It's an 08.  I've seen the oil light come on before and this is different.

It's in the triangle, but according to the link that's the master warning light.  That doesn't sound good.

Low tire pressure.

Hmm.  I'll put some air in the tires on the way home and see if it goes away.

take it in to an oil change place.  might be nothing major.  i got that in one of my cars and it was a loose wire somewhere under the dash.

Advanced Auto and Auto Zone can read computer codes for free.  Just go in and tell them that you have a warning light.  They will read it and tell you what it is.

And then buy something that is NOT A Nissan over the weekend.  They SUCK.
