Could be a couple of things. The belt that drives the alternator (serpentine belt) is glazed, damaged or slipping. If the belt looks okay, then it could be the belt tensioner. They sometimes wear out and need to be replaced. I have added a photo of the tensioner.
If it isn't one of those problems, then it might be that your brake lights are staying on after you shut the car off. Check to be sure they are off when you take your foot off of the brake. If they stay on all the time, you will need to adjust or replace the brake light switch.
The brake light switch should be at the top of the brake pedal, up under the dash. Try bending the bracket that holds it down a little and see if the brake lights go off. If they don't, then the switch is bad and you will have to replace it.
