 1994 chevrolet pickup...brake light switch. this issue has been addressed but is not resolved !! i have replaced this part twice,and have also had the free replacement by chevrolet....within 6 months the part will fail again. the problem is not resolved. furthermore,if you have the cruise applied and the brake light fails to light when the brake is applied the cruise will not release !!! the ramifications are clear....... this situation needs to be re-addressed immediately!! *nm

 Took my 1994 chevrolet p/u to millington chevrolet for brake light switch recall. (had to take off work to do this) after receiving my vehicle back i took the opportunity to peruse their handiwork and was surprised to find they had neglected to reverse the polarity of the orange and white wires per the recall. shortly thereafter the brake lights started to work intermittently. the first time i realized there was a problem was when i tapped my brakes to come-off cruise. the vehicle continued to accelerate. i applied the brake again, this time harder, and the vehicle downshifted and started pulling harder!! i quickly disengaged the cruise with the on/off controller on the stalk, narrowly preventing a disaster. *jb
