NHTSA Complaint #10759642 — 2010 HYUNDAI ACCENT

WHILE DRIVING AT NORMAL OPERATING SPEED, I WAS ALERTED BY ANOTHER MOTORIST THAT MY BRAKE LIGHTS WEREN'T WORKING. I REPLACED THE BRAKE LIGHT SWITCH AND THAT FIXED THE PROBLEM. WHILE RESEARCHING THE ISSUE, I NOTICED A RECALL OF HYUNDAI ACCENTS FOR THE YEARS PRIOR TO 2010, BUT THE RECALL DID NOT INCLUDE 2010S. I VERIFIED WITH THE DEALER THAT I HAD NO OPEN RECALLS, SO I REPLACED THE PART AT MY OWN EXPENSE. IT SEEMS THE BRAKE LIGHT SWITCHES ARE STILL NOT RELIABLE IN THESE CARS.
