No brake lights on 2006 Chevrolet Colorado. Was notified in traffic by a third party. Determined bulbs and fuses were all functional. Researched problem online and found NHTSA campaign number: 09V-310 regarding exterior lighting: Brake lights: Switch. I live in Missouri which is not specifically noted in the campaign. However, campaign states "coverage for vehicles registered in all other states will be implemented in the same time frame." Called local Chevrolet dealer to have brake switch replaced regarding this campaign. They stated they were un-aware of the campaign and refused to fix the problem. I am left with a vehicle that has brake light illumination failure and it will not alert other motorists of the vehicle slowing and stopping and could lead to a vehicle crash.

2006 Chevy Colorado crew cab. I am the original and current owner of this vehicle. According to the NHTSA complaint number 06V139000, there is a brake light switch malfunction with this type of GM vehicle. I have had this item replaced 6 times during my ownership of the vehicle purchased in February 2006. GM has failed to fix the issue. This is a major safety issue. I have been pulled over by local and state police informing me my brake lights are inoperable. On two occasions I had a police escort to the allen samuels dealership in corpus christi, Texas. GM needs to fix the issue as soon as possible. I have sent letters regarding this issue on several dates with no response.
