If your brakes fail while driving a car with anti-lock brakes, you should first pump the brake pedal to try to regain some braking power. If that does not work, shift to a lower gear to help slow the vehicle down. Use the steering wheel to navigate away from obstacles, and if necessary, steer towards a safe area or soft terrain to minimize damage. Finally, activate your hazard lights to alert other drivers of your situation.

Will your car fail if a brake warning light is on?

Your brakes could fail, depending on the severity of the problem. Should get it check out asap, brakes and tires are the most important things, and problems shouldn't be taken lightly. I had an experience when this happened, was test driving a car that the customer said brake light was on, fluid a little low, test drove and the master cylinder gave out and almost couldn't stop the car, had to downshift and use the e-brake to avoid an accident.
