Yeah I have been using a screw driver for about 2 weeks now, the BAS/ESP light started to come on about a week ago and out of curiousity I chcked to see if my brake lights were working and low and behold, no brake lights, so now it has become serious in my eyes. Also to day I figured the car was not telling I was pressing the brake pedal because when I had the cruise control on (which I rarely even use) it did not disengage when I pressed the brake pedal...Threw it in neutral to turn off the cruise :-).. so now I am thinking its the Brake Light Switch due to these issues. I think I located the switch under the dash board cover... going to check it now....cheers
