Brake lights are not operating and the electronic stability control system malfunction light stays on. Kia has a recall sc098 (nthsa number 13v114000) for this exact problem, when I took the car to the dealer they informed me my VIN does not fall in that recall, I spoke to kia and they informed me the same, yet my car has the identical problems described in the recall notice they have also informed me the hydraulic electronic control unit and the recall has verbiage of hydraulics. My concern is kia states I am outside the recall window with the identical issue as stated on the recall from 2013 and expanded at least once.

Affect the operation of the brake-transmission shift interlock feature preventing the shifter from being moved out of the park position and causing the electronic stability control (esc) malfunction light to illuminate. Failure to illuminate the stop lamps during braking or inability to disengage the cruise control could increase the risk of a crash. Kia will send an interim notification to owners in may 2013.

As of Saturday my brake lights would not shut off, then I noticed while driving the electronic stability control light kept flashing on and off by itself. And the cruise control was not working properly as well. So I got online to investigate this and found there was a recall for this exact problem with my year and model car. But when I called kia they stated that my car was not part of the recall and that I would have to pay out of pocket for the repairs, even though my make model was recalled and my car was doing the same thing that was recalled.

The contact owns a 2007 kia Sportage. The contact stated the electronic stability control warning light continuously illuminated on the instrument panel.

The esc (electronic stability control) light in my car is illuminating without depressing the button and the brake lights do not illuminate when the brake pedal is depressed. I have replaced the brake bulbs (all other tail lamps work. . . Blinkers, flashers & back-up lights). I looked up on-line and found that kia had issued a recall "exterior lighting: brake lights: switch" announced on 4/17/2009 for this very thing. I contacted Kia Motors directly to see if they would help. The responded absolutely not, it was my problem because it is not on the recall. I would have to incur the expense. How do I know once it's fixed it won't happen again. There seems to be multiple safety concerns: 1) driving with no brake lights and being unaware; 2) the esc malfunction causes the cruise control to fail/not shut of when you press the brake. I am concerned that peoples safety is at risk.
