I checked and the park brake is not on. The radiator and overflow have correct fluid and my battery is less than six months old.

ti cold be a ground problem but have the battery checked, just because it's 6 months old doesn't mean it can go bad. I've seen this happen many times. The brake light may be your abs andyou'll need apro to check that as you may have a sensor or wire gone bad.

FYI - I changed the ground wire. No joy. After 10 days at the mechanic and R$1000 later it turned out to be the alternator.
