I had this problem a while ago.
turns out after my car got rear-ended, the shop who reinstalled the rear control arm didnt tighten the brake lines enough, so.... drip..........drip.......drip. Just like yours. every time I would take a corner the Brake light would come on, and then eventaully it would be on all the time.
kinda scared me, so I would buy some brake fluid. I went through about 3 bottles because I just didnt have the time to get it done. but when it was done, all they had to do was tighten all the bolts on the control arm and the resovoir and it worked fine.
was a $30 fix.
but if yours is leaking inside the car, thats a whole different beast. it could mean that your clutch master cylinder is out. but thats a $50 part and not that difficult to fix. So I wouldn't worry too much it won't rape you to get this fixed
