Hyundai in the affected vehicles, the brake light switch may malfunction.
The short version
Hyundai Motor America reported a problem with the brake lights switch. Here is what owners need to know.
In the affected vehicles, the brake light switch may malfunction. A malfunctioning brake light switch may cause the brake lights to not illuminate when the brake pedal is depressed or may cause an inability to deactivate the cruise control by depressing the brake pedal.
Failure to illuminate the brake lights during braking or the inability to disengage the cruise control could increase the risk of a crash.
Hyundai will notify owners, and dealers will replace the brake switch, free of charge.
