I believe the exclamation point inside the lines(which are supposed to be a tire symbol) is a low tire pressure warning indicator. Check all tire pressures, as a drop of just 10% will set the lamp off. It will take up to 5 minutes with the car running for the lamp to shut off after filling tires. Hope this helps.

GOOD LUCK i hope this is of help

Exclamation point warning light came on...what

A yellow explanation point symbol on the dashboard typically applies to the Tire Pressure Monitoring system. A thick ! inside a half drawn flat tire symbol to be complete and comes in yellow color when lit. Under normal vehicle set-up, if this indicator stays lit after the power-on selftest, you need to check your tires for any uneven pressures and adjust their pressures to correct specifications. Okay? : )

A red exclamation point inside a circle when lit indicates your parking brake is on, or your brake fluid level is low.

What does it mean when the icon on the dashboard that looks like an upside down horseshoe with an exclamation point in the middle lights up?

that means that you need air in one of you tires. you have the TPMS or tire pressure monitor system when your tires are below the ideal pressure it will light the icon in the dash. the way to tell if you have this it to look at the tire stems the place where you put in the air if there silver you do have it. if there black you don't
there should also be a yellow light on the dash that comes on when you turn the key on or start the car that reads "TPMS"
hope that this helps
