Brake Light Comes On When Accelerating
2001 Ford Explorer
This problem may be covered under warranty. Ask your Ford dealer.

CarComplaints.com Notes: How can we give the 2001 model year a "seal of pretty good" when it has some problems with a slipping transmission and a known problem with the speed activation control switch? Because it's not the 2002. That's how.
