| Description of the problem | There is a little space between the brake lamp switch and brake that has my brake lights constantly on. While i am driving if i don't keep my left foot under the brake pedal and pushing it up then the brake lights will constantly be on. If i don't keep my foot there then sometimes when i am going up a hill or driving the car will drop rpms and then i have to put my foot under the brake and push it up again. Also, when driving the hill assist light, on the dashboard will turn on and the car will roll down the hill any direction when in reverse or drive because of the switch. I had gone to subaru to do the recall for the brake lamp switch and then a few weeks after this issue began to occur. |
