## What is wrong

On certain vehicles, the brake lamps may not operate properly due to fretting corrosion in the Body Control Module \(BCM\) C2 wiring connector.  Corrosion in the connector could cause the brake lamps to illuminate when the brake pedal has not been depressed, or cause them to not illuminate at all.  Failure of the brake lamps to illuminate when the brake pedal is depressed may result in the following road users being unaware of the driver's intentions, as well as reducing vehicle conspicuity during hours of darkness.  This could result in a vehicle crash causing personal injury or death.  Correction: Dealers will apply a dielectric lubricant to repair and prevent corrosion inside the wiring connector.
