The brake lights constantly stay on. When I hit the brakes, they go off for 5 seconds and then come back on. The ESC alert/traction control alert always turns on. Acceleration and transmission issues. Rpms shoot up and jerks into next gear. Sometimes these things are like this right from when I turn the car on, and sometimes they happen after I've been driving a little while. It has done this before and there was a recall on the car for it. I brought it in, and was fixed. About a year later it started again but I was told they didn't cover it to be fixed again.

Been having problems with the transmission since I bought the car new. It shifts in 1st and 2nd fine but going into 3rd or 5th gear it will shift to neutral and then shift hard into gear. Dealership could not replicate problem but am still having it. Then recently been having a strong smell of gas from the rear of the car at the rear doors. Looked underneath the car and saw that the tank had a wet spot from fuel leaking for a while. Have never over filled my car with gas. I did drop the tank and come to fine out the whole top of the tank is covered in gas. It has been leaking for a long while.
