Issue

On certain vehicles, silicone grease may have come into contact with the stop lamp switch during vehicle assembly. If grease infiltrates the switch, instrument panel warning lamps could illuminate, a no start condition could result, or the shift lever may not shift from the PARK position. In some instances, the vehicle stop lamps could become inoperative. Failure of the stop lamps to illuminate when the brakes are applied may result in the following road users being unaware of the driver's intentions, increasing the risk of a crash causing property damage and/or personal injury. Correction: Dealers will replace the stop lamp switch.
