    Exterior Lighting / Brake Lights / Switch

    Defect, in the NHTSA record
    Wells Vehicle Electronics, L.P. (Wells) is recalling certain Brake Light switches, sold as Airtex part number 1S5010, Advantech part number 5T9, Duralast part number CR4854, Valucraft part number CR4854VC, Carquest ECC "Blue" part number 53-54425, and Carquest Rig "Red" part number 58220, manufactured April 2, 2015, to September 18, 2015. The affected brake light switches may not illuminate the brake lights, or disengage the cruise control.
    Consequence, in the NHTSA record
    If the switch does not illuminate brake lights, other drivers may not know that the vehicle is slowing. If the brake light switch does not cancel cruise control, the vehicle may unexpectedly maintain its speed. Either condition can increase the risk of a crash.
    Remedy, in the NHTSA record
    Wells will notify owners, and distributors will replace the brake light switch, free of charge. The recall began on March 8, 2016. Owners may contact Wells customer service at 1-920-922-5900.

    Electrical System / 12v/24v/48v Battery / Cables

    Defect, in the NHTSA record
    Certain valucraft 8 and 10 gauge booster cables imported and sold by autozone as aftermarket equipment used to jump start automobiles and other motorized equipment including motorcycles, atvs, boats, and lawn equipment having discharged batteries. These battery cables are either stamped 8ga or 10ga. Some of these cables were assembled incorrectly. On one of the cables, the red clamp was attached to the negative side and the black clamp was attached to the positive side. This may result in reverse polarity.
    Consequence, in the NHTSA record
    Reverse polarity has the potential to cause damage to the vehicle battery as well as property damage and personal injury. A vehicle's battery may burst under these conditions.
    Remedy, in the NHTSA record
    Autozone will offer a full refund or replacement for the affected booster cables. The recall began on november 25, 2007.
