Could be ok(ish), could be bad - the only way to find out is access the OBD error code and see. (Which is what your garage / recovery service will do. You can buy a cheap OBD adapter on FleaBay and use the free Torque app (Android and iPhony) to read and clear them).

I've had a couple: one was the "air flow mass sensor" which was fine for a couple of years until it failed properly, the car went into "limp home mode", and the ECU had to be ripped apart to fix it, the other was the "cam hall effect sensor" which will stop you in your tracks if you ignore it. The air mass sensor cost £600 and two weeks to fix, the cam sensor £20 and 15 minutes with a small spanner ...

Don't ignore it, check your codes and see what it is.
