Definitely add a little coolant. Also, just like low coolant, low brake fluid will also light up on the dash during hard starts and stops.

Hey guys its me again i took your advice and took my car to another dealer and they could not get the light to come on.so i got in and went on a testdrive with the tech and it came on so he concluded that the sensor on the reservior was faulty. when he was trying to install the new reservior he somehow broke a nipple on the radiator so they had to change the radiator also. it was warranty so i didnt care i was actually happy cuz i got a coolant flush. oh ya and the light has not come back on so it was the sensor that was causing the light to come on..
