| Description of the problem | Brake lights will not go off after i turn off my car. Sometimes the brake lights and back lights pops on even when the car is off and will not turn off. The slippery when wet light stays on at all times. When i am driving the car and i have to use the brakes to stop at a red light or stop sign the car moves very slowing and stalls. Sometimes when i am driving the car looses power. I was driving on the interstate twice and the car just lost power and began to slow down. This was a huge safety concern. Now the car has no power. |
