it means a service interval of condition based service has exceeded the limit, and that whatever it is should probably be checked (not that it requires service, but probably does)

Ook do you have any idea what that could be cause I just changed the oil my brakes are good my cabin air filter and air filter is good so idk what it could be but i@ll have it checked . Last time a picture of a red car kept popping up and the starter went on me so I'm nervous hope it's nothing serious

I think you can check it by using the control button on the left side of the steering wheel, the level right above the cruise control lever. If you scroll to the check control (I'm not sure if it's called exactly that) menu, you can see what service it;s saying needs to be done. A key for what the symbols mean can be found in the owners manual.
