Description of the problem	This is the second time that we have been unable to start our 2011 hyundai sonata se. The first incident occured less than 1 year ago and was determined by our local hyudnai dealer to be a faulty brake lamp switch. The part was replaced and we were told that this has been a problem with other 2011 sonatas, which is why the part is in stock. The new part was not supposed to cause the same problem to reoccur-but it has! The vehicle is at the dealer as i file this complaint and the brake lamp switch is again at fault. I have found numerous complaints on line by other owners that had and are having the exact same problem. This seem to be a widespread defect and needs to be addressed immediately! This is my wife's car and we are very concerned with her safety and the vehicle's questionable reliability! *tt
