| Description of the problem | Took my 2010 genesis in for service... Brake stop lights were not working. Replaced defective switch. Took my same car in for state inspection on september 9, 2014, brake lights not working again. Replaced defective switch myself because of 2 hour drive to dealer and the safety issue involved with driving vehicle. Something needs to be done! These switches should not fail this often.... This is a very serious safety issue. We don't know how long this switch was not working since there is no way to tell when you are driving the vehicle... Thanks!
