service brake lights

Purchased this car used on 9/1/2020. Exactly one week - and about 900 miles' driving - later, I left my home to pick up a couple prescriptions form the pharmacy. I made it about half a block when alarms went off and lights lit up my instrument panel. As if that wasn't distressing enough, pressing my brakes revealed that the warning lights were not all bark and no bite; there was in fact something going on. The pedal was soft, too easy to depress at first and then very difficult, and overall but ineffective.

The warning lights that illuminated were for: brake system & parking brake system (or brake system warning), check brake system, ABS, AdvanceTrac, AdvanceTrac off. I contacted the sales agent to bring it in to their service department, but he never got back to me. The issue resolved itself within three days, so I left it alone. It has since happened again.
