I've recently bought this car and the brake lights keep illuminating when not pressed and has destroyed two brand new sets of rotors in less than 3 months due to hot spots and stress fractures. I have noticed it happens all the time whether I'm doing city or country driving. Also the third brake light will fail to light up some of the times whenever I'm only pressing the accelerator but it will refuse to light up when the brake pedal is pressed when this is happening.

Since the car was repurchased from another buy the car has had electrical issues with it. It blows a fuse constantly causing the rear taillights not to work when the fuse is then replaced it last a day or so then blows again. This c not in nuesbto happen even after replace the taillights with new ones. We replaced the entire thing not just the bulbs. The headlights even though we have had attempted to replace them the driver side headlight continues to come on and go off as if it's got a short in it some where. The battery has a short some where I think. At times after driving it we go to shut it off and we'll go in the store and come and the car won't start. We have had to wait 2-3 hours before it would start up again. So since we live in the desert it being hot we started checking things. When the battery is lifted up on or my bed around the car will then attempt to start but it just makes the noise like it is trying to crank over and there's been multiple times that the ignition has attempted to start itself while messing with the battery. And the ignition gets stuck. Soon as we let go of the battery it stops trying to do anything. We have replaced the starter the battery and other things and nothing's works to fix it. Also the door locks like to engage and disengage randomly on their own as if the car is haunted. Causing us to disconnect them all together.

The saturn aura has repeatedly had door lock switches go out, each time the front head light is replaced, it blows out again, the lights inside the car dim randomly. The traction control/ABS lights are disabled on the car constantly despite replacing the ECM, upper and lower intake gaskets, coolant flushing, and other cleared codes. The car jerks and jolts when slowing down, parking, starting, and changing gears. It violently pushes the car. The engine light and tire pressure lights also remain constant despite consistent work on the car. Four different dealerships (including a chevrolet dealership) have been unable to fix the issues with the car. The car also engaged low power mode and almost caused numerous accidents because the car stopped being able to accelerate while on the road.
