2007 Hyundai Tucson Exterior Lighting

THE PARKING/RUNNING LIGHTS WILL NOT TURN OFF INTERMITTENTLY. THIS CAN DRAIN THE BATTERY IF NOT NOTED WHEN TURNING OFF THE CAR. WEATHER/HUMIDITY/PRECIPITATION HAS NO BEARING ON THIS PROBLEM. LIGHTS WILL NOT GO OFF WHETHER VEHICLE ENGINE IS RUNNING OR OFF. I HAVE HAD THE VEHICLE IN FOR SERVICING AND THE ISSUE COULD NOT BE DUPLICATED/DIAGNOSED.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 HYUNDAI TUCSON. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE BRAKE LIGHTS STOPPED WORKING.

TOOK VEHICLE IN FOR OIL CHANGE AND NOTICED THAT THEY RECOMMENDED CHANGING ALL 3 BRAKE LIGHTS. VERIFIED THAT ALL BRAKES LIGHTS WERE OUT AND ESC LIGHT ON. WENT ON NHTSA WEBSITE AND FOUND OUT THERE WAS A RECALL ON BRAKE LAMP SWITCH FOR THAT VEHICLE. TOOK CAR TO DEALERSHIP AND WAS INFORMED THAT RECALL DID NOT PERTAIN TO MY VIN. SAID THAT IT HAD BEEN REPLACED IN 12/10/09 FOR A RECALL AT THAT TIME OF THE SAME PART. BELIEVE PART THAT WAS REPLACED WAS DEFECTIVE. DEALERSHIP REPLACED BRAKE LAMP SWITCH AGAIN *JS
