What is wrong
Speedway Motors, Inc. (Speedway) is recalling certain brake light switches with a 3/8 inch IFM adapter fitting, part number 910-31303, used in hot rod and street rod applications. The affected brake light switch may crack under the pressure caused by pushing on the brake pedal, allowing the electrical contact housing to separate from the metal housing.
What can happen
A crack or separation would result in a leak of brake fluid and a loss of hydraulic brake pressure, lengthening the vehicle's stopping distance and increasing the risk of a crash.
The fix
Recall repairs are free of charge.
Speedway will notify owners and will replace the affected part with a redesigned part, free of charge. The recall began on May 15, 2014. Owners may contact Speedway Motors at 1-800-979-0122.

A recall means the maker found a safety problem and offers a free fix; it does not mean every unit has the problem. Units affected are as reported by the company. Popular models sell more and so have more recalls and complaints. Official public data; texts are shortened. A dealer can tell whether a single vehicle still needs the repair.
