Model Year	2012
File date	13/10/20

Product type code	VEHICLE
Description of the problem	I noticed the brake lights were still on after the car was parked and turned off in the garage. On further inspection the brake pedal switch stopper had disintegrated and was no longer depressing the switch. The vehicle could shift out of gear without pressing the brake. I did not feel safe driving the vehicle until this was repaired. This was supposedly replaced in 2016 under a recall for a similar failure. I drove a separate vehicle to obtain a replacement part and the problem is now fixed. There was no warning before failure.

What is Recall?
A recall is when a product is removed from the market or a correction is made to the product because it is either defective or potentially harmful.
What is Failure?
Failure is the state or condition of not meeting a desirable or intended objective, and may be viewed as the opposite of success. Product failure ranges from failure to sell the product to fracture of the product, in the worst cases leading to personal injury, the province of forensic engineering.
