Will they let me take my road test?

Will they let me take my road test?

So I got an a-hole for an examiner for my last road test 2 weeks ago and I failed but I need my license asap because I am now working on co-op which is basically an internship I do during school hours (vocational school). My driving school said I couldn’t take my test with their car until the end of the school year which is too long to wait. In order to take my test with my personal car it needs to have an emergency brake in the middle of the seats however none of my family members cars had one. So we are borrowing my family friends car which is a 2016 Subaru (don’t ask me the exact model idk). I have been driving it as much as possible in the days before my test that is this Tuesday (may 12) I am sitting in the parking lot with the ac on when I noticed that 4 warning lights on the dash. I started panicking because along with these lights, the car has been making this scratching noise like there is metal dragging on the pavement whenever I use the brakes. My mom thinks it could be the brake pads and so there is obviously something wrong with this car. So basically I need to know if they won’t let me use this car for my road test through the rmv? When I look it up it says it depends on the examiner but only for the check engine light so I don’t know the details of the other lights or the brakes issue. I live in Massachusetts and I’m taking it directly through the Rmv. I just need a yes or no and taking it to the mechanic is probably not gonna happen because I don’t know how long that will take and it’s also not my car and I’m not going to pay to get it fixed to drive it once.

Edit:
I’m going to have my dad check it out when we get home however this an older car and I have never driven an suv before, the interior is completely different and I’m getting used to it (this is the second time I’ve driven it). But I’m also getting mixed responses in the comments so I would rather be safe than sorry and we might need to find another car ty for the people who actually helped and didn’t make me seem dumb (I’m literally taking mt road test and I’m a teenager what makes yall think I know everything about cars 😭)
