Brake Lights Without Key?

[SiVisPacemParaBellum]

I recently noticed that if I turn off my 2006 Liberty Limited, and remove the key, the brake lights still respond if I press the brake pedal.

Is this normal? If so, is this a feature like the automatically-stay-on "safety" feature many Liberties have, or is this usually standard for many different types of vehicles?

If this is not normal, what's wrong?

Thanks.

Normal.

Every vehicle Ive ever been in has it. Its a safety feature.

Thanks

Thanks for your response, Jeepster.

It seemed like it would be a normal thing, but I wasn't sure.

Yup, that's a constant 12v source.

Thanks again.

100% normal. Of course you gotta know when someone's foot is on the brake pedal right?

WTF there is something seriously wrong with your Jeep. Your brake lights should only come on while you are braking. Either you BCM is toast or you need new cross drilled brake lines. They are only $70 at KaleCoauto.com
