Consumer Description

LAST WEEK WE NOTICED THAT THE "ESC OFF" LIGHT WAS ON. TONIGHT ON 5/24/2012 WE NOTICED THAT THE BRAKE LIGHTS WERE NOT WORKING. I HAD TO JUST BARELY PLUG IN THE BRAKE LIGHT SWITCH WIRE FOR THE BRAKE LIGHTS TO WORK AGAIN. THIS WAS A PROBLEM WITH EARLIER SONATAS THE RECALL WAS NHTSA ACTION NUMBER: PE09003. MY 2008 EXHIBITED THE SAME PROBLEMS WITH THE ESC LIGHT AND THE BRAKE LIGHTS. *TR
