Consumer Description

I WAS DRIVING MY VEHICLE AND NOTICED MY CHECK ESC CHECK TRACTION CONTROL LIGHT CAME ON IN MY DRIVER NOTIFICATION PANEL. WHEN I GOT HOME I NOTICED THAT MY REAR BRAKE LIGHTS WERE ON AND I WASNT EVEN IN THE VEHICLE PRESSING ON THE BRAKE. SO I TOOK IT FOR A TEST DRIVE AND NOTICED THAT THE BRAKE LIGHTS WOULD COME ON WITHOUT ME HITTING THE BRAKES AND THEN WHEN I DID HIT THE BRAKES THE BRAKE LIGHTS WOULD NOT COME ON. THIS HAS BEEN IN THE SHOP FOR THE FIFTH TIME NOW FOR THE SAME THING. HUGE SAFETY CONCERN WHEN YOUR BRAKE LIGHTS ARE NOT WORKING.
