1999 Geo Tracker recalls, newest first

October 20, 1999NHTSA 99V27300130,605 vehicles potentially affected

Exterior lighting › Brake lights › Switch

Summary: Vehicle description: passenger vehicles. Some of these vehicles have an inoperative brake lamp-actuating switch. If the brake lamp-actuating switch does not function properly when the brake pedal is depressed, the brake lights may be inoperative. On vehicles equipped with automatic transaxle, a failure in the brake lamp-actuating switch may also prevent shifting out of park. This does not comply with the requirements of FMVSS no. 108, "lamps, reflective devices, and associated equipment."
Consequence: If this were to occur while the vehicle was in motion and another vehicle was following closely, a vehicle crash could occur.
Remedy: Dealers will replace the stop lamp switch assembly.
