Check whether your vehicle is affected and follow the manufacturer’s recall instructions — the repair is free.
If the switch does not illuminate brake lights, other drivers may not know that the vehicle is slowing. If the brake light switch does not cancel cruise control, the vehicle may unexpectedly maintain its speed. Either condition can increase the risk of a crash.
The Recall Registry rates this worth checking — we found nothing in the notice describing a specific injury. A recall covers only the versions, UPCs or date codes it names, so check those against yours.
