What can fail
The brake light switch may fail when internal plastic parts distort from heat, causing the switch to stick in the on or off position. Your brake lights could stay constantly lit or not work at all, regardless of pedal pressure.
What the fix does
The brake light switch will be replaced with a new switch that uses a different contact system.
