Lighting recalls for the 1979 Buick Electra

Exterior lighting: switch

79V14200015,328 vehicles affected

The problem
On the involved vehicles the brake stoplight and cruise control switch which is operated by the brake pedal may have been assembled with an incorrect lubricant on the actuating plunger. This can cause the rear brake stoplights to become inoperative and the cruise control, if activated, to stay electrically engaged.
The fix
Dealer will inspect and, if necessary, replace the brake stoplight and cruise control switch at no cost to owner.
