NHTSA CAMPAIGN ID NUMBER: 09V280000 , I OWN A 2006 HYUNDAI ELANTRA AND THE BRAKE SWITCH THAT CONTROLS THE BRAKE LIGHTS WENT OUT AND MY CAR WAS NOT ONE OF THE ONES ON THE RECALL. I JUST WANTED TO KNOW IF A LOT OF OTHER ELANTRA OWNS THAT WERE NOT ON THE LIST FOR THE RECALL HAD THIS HAPPENING AND IF THEY MAY NEED TO EXPAND THE RECALL LIST. *TR

ON A FRIDAY ALL OF THE BRAKING LIGHTING QUIT WORKING ON OUR 2006 HYUNDAI ELANTRA. CHECKED FUSE AND BULB AND ALL ARE WORKING. SEARCHED THIS WEBSITE AND FOUND A RECALL FOR 2006 ELANTRA FOR THIS EXACT PROBLEM. THE ISSUE IS A SAFETY SWITCH AND IT SAYS IT WILL BE FIXED FREE OF CHARGE PER THE RECALL. DROVE THE CAR 55 MILES WITHOUT BRAKE LIGHTS TO THE DEALERSHIP IN MISSOULA MONTANA. MISSOULA NISSAN/HYUNDAI WHERE WE HAVE PURCHASED TWO HYUNDAI'S. DEALER REFUSED TO HONOR RECALL BY FIRST SAYING IT WAS CAR SPECIFIC AND SECOND BY SAYING IT DID NOT APPLY TO 2006 MODELS. THE RECALL NUMBER FROM THIS SITE IS 09V280000. *TR

I HAVE A 2006 HYUNDAI ELANTRA. I HAVE JUST REPLACED MY HEADLIGHTS FOR THE THIRD TIME IN 6 MONTHS. WHEN I TOOK THE CAR TO THE DEALER AFTER THE LAST TIME, THEY "CLAIMED" THEY HAD CHECKED ALL WIRING AND LAMPS AND STATED ALL WAS OKAY. SOMEHOW I DOUBT IT WAS THE BULBS. ONE WENT OUT A COUPLE OF DAYS AGO AND THE OTHER BLEW TODAY. THANKFULLY, I WAS BY MY HOME WHEN IT WAS GETTING DARK. I AM GOING TO HAVE THEM CHECK IT AGAIN THIS WEEK. *TR
