## What is wrong

On certain vehicles, the adjustable pedal assembly may have excess grease that could potentially enter the stop lamp switch and contaminate the contacts.  This could lead to a build up of carbon, and potentially a short circuit.  A short circuit could either cause the stop lamps to remain on, or cause a loss of stop lamp function.  Correction:  Brake lamp switch will be replaced and excess grease will be wiped off the adjustable pedal assembly.
