![]() In the affected vehicles, increased resistance in the Body Control Module (BCM) connection may result in voltage fluctuations in the Brake Apply Sensor (BAS) circuit. When the lights go off, its 8 seconds before they come back on.General Motors LLC (GM) is recalling certain model year 2004-2012 Chevrolet Malibu vehicles manufactured May 16, 2003, through October 11, 2012, 2004-2007 Malibu Maxx vehicles manufactured June 25, 2003, through April 5, 2007, 2005-2010 Pontiac G6 vehicles manufactured May 26, 2004, through January 4, 2010, and 2007-2010 Saturn Aura vehicles manufactured April 24, 2006, through May 26, 2009. There have been multiple times I have been slowing down to turn into a store or an intersection and people have come flying up behind me because my brake lights are not working almost rear ending me. I have a 3 year old son who rides in the backseat of this car and it is a disaster waiting to happen. She said the company is unaware of the problem. I told her I have done alot of research about this online and have found hundreds of complaints for this very issue on numerous web site's. She gave me a list of repairs to be done and said I had to go thru that list first and pay for all the repairs out of pocket and if it didn't work then she was at a loss too. I talked to a woman named judy who was no help. So, I contacted the dealership who told me they had no idea how to fix it and would need to go thru my wiring one by one and inspect everything and warned me it was limitless how much a repair like that could cost. We also replaced a few other parts associated with the brake pedal and it still wasn't corrected. We replaced two pressure switches in the brake pedal thinking that was the problem. So when my brake lights are on(came on by themselves) and I actually need to stop, the brake lights go off when I use the brake. You have to press the brake pedal to shut them off. The brake lights will come on at random times without pressing on the brake pedal. ![]() ![]() Then I realized when I drove the car home that night that the brake lights were on and this was causing the cruise to not work. Sometime it would work, other times it wouldn't. The same day I started noticing my cruise control wasn't working properly. I have owned gm vehicles for 15 years and after the horrible customer service I received (after I filed a bbb complaint) I will never buy gm again. Someone is going to get seriously hurt in an accident, and if it is someone in my vehicle, gm is the first place I'm going to for answers. Everyday my brake lights come on while driving down the road and only go off when I actually use the brake. There has been times that they won't even work at all. I have a 3 year old that I won't even let ride in my car for fear I will be rear ended with him should my brake lights decide not to work. Dealership said they have no way to fix it, I have replaced fuses, sensors, pressure switches, nothing has worked. I researched this online and found 24,300 results of Saturn Aura brake light problems. Dealerships and Saturn/gm customer service have been no help. Thus drivers behind me think I am riding my brakes and then when I in fact use the brake, the brake light shuts off. ![]() They only shut off when you press on the brake pedal. After starting to pay attention to this more, I realized the brake lights are coming on my themselves. About a month later, it did it again, but this time I noticed (it was at night) then when the cruise control shut off, the brake lights had come on by themselves. ![]() I immediately noticed my cruise control would occasionally shut off by itself. I purchased a 2007 Saturn Aura in may 2010 with 36,000 miles. ![]()
