“Takata recall- I have a 2007 Saturn AURA and I am having problems with my brake lights. They are constantly on. I have had the brake sensors replaced and same outcome. I even had the brake switch replaced. While I am driving my brake lights are on and when I use the brakes the brake light goes off. Have almost been rear ended quite a few times.”
NHTSA complaint #11115482, filed 2018-08, 15,500 miles“Takata recall the ECM light was on the brake lights stay on when car is on and when applying the brakes the brake lights go out. It his difficult to move the shifter from park to another gear. I have this car for 2 years and every time I check there is no recall on my car. The air bag light on passenger side comes and goes all the time.”
NHTSA complaint #10873852, filed 2016-06, 148,500 miles“My external brake lights come on as soon as I crank my vehicle. They do not go off unless I press my brake pedal. I have almost been rear ended a couple of times. Also when I first get in my vehicle when I press my brake pedal it gets stuck and it makes it hard to put my car in gear. I need this checked almost immediately. This is my second time filing a claim. The first one was not looked at.”
NHTSA complaint #11119947, filed 2018-08, 150,000 miles“I've recently bought this car and the brake lights keep illuminating when not pressed and has destroyed two brand new sets of rotors in less than 3 months due to hot spots and stress fractures. I have noticed it happens all the time whether I'm doing city or country driving. Also the third brake light will fail to light up some of the times whenever I'm only pressing the accelerator but it will refuse to light up when the brake pedal is pressed when this is happening.”
NHTSA complaint #11414382, filed 2021-04, 104,128 miles“I was on the interstate then I realized my car was slowing down. I pressed the accelerator and that's when I noticed the RPM passed three. I noticed both my front tires were smoking. I took it to the dealership and he told me he replaced the brakes and the caliper. A month later, it did the same thing. He then told me it need to be replaced again and I have to pay.”
