Consumer Description

THE BRAKE LIGHTS STAYED ON ALL NIGHT AFTER CAR WAS PUT IN PARK AND ENGINE WAS TURNED OFF, CAUSING BATTERY TO LOSE ALL POWER. THIS COULD BE CAUSED BY A FAULTY BRAKE/STOP LIGHT SWITCH. A RECALL WAS ISSUED FOR BRAKE/STOP LIGHT SWITCH ON DIFFERENT YEARS AND MODELS OF HYUNDAI VEHICLES. MY 2001 HYUNDAI ELANTRA GLS WAS NOT INCLUDED IN THE RECALL BUT PROBABLY SHOULD HAVE BEEN. *TR
