1 Brake Light On problem

Failure Date: 07/27/2020

The esc, abs, steering torque control, 4wd, parking brake lights all came on. The dealer told me that a rodent had chewed the wiring for a rear wheel speed sensor because it has soy based insulation. The vehicle had been parked over night, but gets driven every day.

2 Brake Light On problem

Failure Date: 03/03/2020

The car was throwing emergence brake failure lights, esc system, service electronic paring brake, service esc system, and check air bags lights.

3 Brake Light On problem

Failure Date: 05/18/2018

I was turning into my parking space slowly with the brake slightly depressed. As I pressed further on the brake the car accelerated suddenly. I pressed down hard on the brakes and the car didn't slow down and smacked the retaining wall. The dashboard lit up with the parking brake (did not press) and the car with the lightning bolts. I don't know what just happened.
