- What is wrong
- Vehicle description: passenger vehicles. Some of these vehicles have an inoperative brake lamp-actuating switch. If the brake lamp-actuating switch does not function properly when the brake pedal is depressed, the brake lights may be inoperative. On vehicles equipped with automatic transaxle, a failure in the brake lamp-actuating switch may also prevent shifting out of park. This does not comply with the requirements of fmvss no. 108, "lamps, reflective devices, and associated equipment."
- Risk
- If this were to occur while the vehicle was in motion and another vehicle was following closely, a vehicle crash could occur.
- Remedy
- Dealers will replace the stop lamp switch assembly.
