NHTSA Complaint #11367054 — 2007 CHEVROLET MALIBU

I HAVE EXPERIENCED MULTIPLE OCCASIONS THROUGHOUT 2020 WHERE THE BRAKE LIGHTS MALFUNCTIONED. THE BRAKE LIGHTS WILL ILLUMINATE ON THEIR OWN WITHOUT DEPRESSION OF THE BRAKE PEDAL AND THE BRAKE LIGHTS WILL TURN OFF UPON DEPRESSING THE BRAKE PEDAL. CRUISE CONTROL WILL ALSO NOT FUNCTION WHEN THIS MALFUNCTION IS OCCURRING. I AM CONVINCED THIS IS THE SAME PROBLEM THAT PROMPTED A RECALL BACK IN 2014. MY CAR WAS REPAIRED THROUGH THE RECALL CAMPAIGN, HOWEVER, I'M CONVINCED THE PROBLEM HAS RETURNED. THIS ISSUE HAS OCCURRED MULTIPLE TIMES WHILE I WAS DRIVING AND IT POSES A SAFETY RISK AND RAISES THE POSSIBILITY OF SOMEONE REAR-ENDING ME IF MY BRAKE LIGHTS AREN'T OPERATING AS THEY SHOULD. IN MY ATTACHED PHOTO, YOU WILL SEE THE BRAKE CONTROL MODULE. SIMPLY SHAKING IT OR PUSHING IT IN AND OUT SEEMS TO RECTIFY THE PROBLEM BUT ONLY TEMPORARILY.
