Risk Description

The product poses a risk of injuries because there is a possibility that in some cases a higher electrical current could cause the shift solenoid circuit contact in the stop lamp switch to burn or melt. Consequently the switch may not operate correctly and the vehicle stop lights will not come on when the brake pedal is pressed. In addition, the customer may notice that the automatic transmission selector lever may not move out of the "P" position.
