2006 Hyundai Elantra EXTERIOR LIGHTING,SERVICE BRAKES

MY BRAKE LIGHTS ARE STUCK ON BUT MY FUSES ARE NOT BLOWN.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 HYUNDAI ELANTRA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE EXTERIOR BRAKE LIGHTS REMAINED ILLUMINATED EVEN WHEN THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS NOT DEPRESSED. THE DEALER WAS NOT CONTACTED. UPON CONDUCTING RESEARCH, THE CONTACT WAS MADE AWARE OF NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 13V113000 (SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC, EXTERIOR LIGHTING) AS A POSSIBLE EXPLANATION FOR THE FAILURE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE AND INFORMED THE CONTACT THAT THE VIN WAS NOT ASSOCIATED WITH THE RECALL. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 118,000.

WHILE DRIVING WHEN I GO TO BRAKE MY BRAKES DON'T TURN ON. ALL THREE OF THEM STAY TURNED OFF. I WAS PULLED OVER FOR THIS TWICE IN THE PAST YEAR. THE FIRST TIME MY INSURANCE COMPANY TOLD ME THAT THERE WAS A RECALL ON MY CAR, BUT WHEN I CALLED THE DEALER THEY TOLD ME THAT MY VIN WASN'T AFFECTED IN THE RECALL. THEY STARTED WORKING AGAIN WHEN I REPLACED MY BATTERY BUT WHO KNOWS FOR HOW LONG. I WAS JUST PULLED OVER AGAIN ON MONDAY FOR THE SAME THING. *TR

BRAKE LAMPS FAILED TO WORK ON MY 2006 HYUNDAI ELANTRA. DEALER TECHNICIANS IDENTIFIED AN INTERNAL FAILURE OF THE BRAKE LAMP SWITCH WHICH THEY REPLACED AT A COST OF $145. I LATER NOTICED THAT THERE WAS A LIMITED RECALL IN JULY 2009 AT NHTSA CAMPAIGN #09V280000 FOR 2005-2007 ELANTRAS IN PUERTO RICO, AND THEN IN APRIL 2013, AN ANNOUNCEMENT OF A PENDING RECALL OF MODEL YEARS 2007-2013. IT APPEARS THAT HYUNDAI HAS DETERMINED THAT THEY NO LONGER NEED TO TAKE CARE OF THE 2006 MODEL YEAR EVEN THOUGH IT WAS ORIGINALLY IDENTIFIED AS EARLY AS JULY 2009. *TR

HYUNDAI RECENTLY HAD A RECALL ON BRAKE LIGHT SWITCHES. UNFORTUNATELY THIS APPLIES TO THE 2007 ELANTRA AND I HAVE THE 2006. MY BRAKE LIGHTS WERE COMPLETELY OUT. AFTER CHECKING THE FUSES AND THE BULBS I REALIZED IT WAS THE RECENTLY RECALLED FAULTY BRAKE LIKE SWITCH TO BLAME. $155 LATER IT'S REPAIRED. THEY REALLY NEED TO INCLUDE OTHER YEARS AND MODELS ON THIS RECALL, AND SHOULD BE PAYING FOR THIS REPAIR. I HAVE SEEN NUMEROUS OTHER COMPLAINTS ONLINE FROM OTHER CONSUMERS WITH SIMILAR ISSUES. SOMEONE COULD HAVE REAR ENDED ME AND I COULD HAVE DIED HAD SOMEONE NOT TOLD ME MY BRAKE LIGHTS WERE OUT. *TR

BRAKE LIGHTS ARE NOT ILLUMINATING ALL THE TIME WHEN BRAKE PEDAL IS DEPRESSED, FOR THE PAST WEEK THEY ONLY WORK FOR A MINUTE OR NOT WORK AT ALL.WENT 2 TIMES TO THE DEALER BEFORE, TWICE THEY WERE WORKING WHEN I ARRIVED, SINCE LAST WEEK THEY ARE NOT WORKING EXCEPT FOR A MINUTE. I HAVE 2 MONTHS WITH THE PROBLEM I WORK 7 DAYS A WEEK AND CANNOT KEEP TAKING TIME OFF. I WAS TOLD THAT MY SPECIFIC MODEL YEAR ELANTRA 2006 IS NOT COVER BY THE RECALL, JUST TO INSPECT THEM COST $ 120, IF A PROBLEM IS FOUND PARTS AND LABOR. HYUNDAI DOESN'T ACCEPT ANY RESPONSIBILITY. THE CAR HAS 50'000 MILES. *TR

MY WIFE NOTICED HER BRAKE LIGHTS WERE NOT WORKING. I LOOKED INTO AND FOUND THAT THERE IS A RECALL FOR THE STOP LIGHT SWITCH FOR HER MAKE, MODEL, AND YEAR. THE RECALL IS NHTSA CAMPAIGN 09V122000. WE CONTACTED HYUNDAI CUSTOMER SERVICE AND GAVE THEM HER VIN, AND THEY SAID HER VEHICLE HAD NO RECALLS. WE TOOK HER CAR TO THE LOCAL MECHANIC TO GET REPAIRED. IT TURNS OUT THAT IT WAS THE STOP LIGHT SWITCH THAT WAS DEFECTIVE AND IT WAS REPLACED. IT COST US $70 TO HAVE FIXED. THE MECHANIC STATED THAT HE COULD NOT BELIEVE OUR VEHICLE WASN'T COVERED UNDER THE RECALL BECAUSE HE HAS HAD ALOT OF VEHICLES WITH THAT SAME ISSUE. I WOULD LIKE THIS TO BE REVIEWED FURTHER AND I WOULD LIKE HYUNDAI TO COVER OUR REPAIR COST FOR THIS DEFECTIVE PART. *TR
