In september 2009 (exact day unknown), the brake light switch on my 2005 hyundai accent began intermittently failing. As a result, I was unable to shift the vehicle out of park approximately once out of every three times I started the vehicle, but was able to remedy the issue by depressing the brake pedal with an exaggerated degree of force within 1-5 attempts. On november 25, the switch ultimately failed. As a result, the vehicle would not shift out of park without employing the shift lock override. Since november 25, I employ the shift lock override but have not yet replaced the switch.
