This would cause the brake lamps not to turn on when the brakes are applied. Depending on the model, this could cause an inability to shift from park or to start using the push-button ignition. This may also cause problems with the following: anti-lock brake system (ABS), vehicle dynamics control (VDC), and/or Eyesight system.\n\nSafety Risk:\nIf the brake lights do not work, a following driver may not to recognize that a vehicle ahead is braking, increasing the risk of crash.\n\nCorrective Actions:\nThe company will notify owners by mail.
