Help! Brake lights will not go out? Ideas

Hi!
Thank you for allowing me to join the group! I have a 1999 Nissan Maxima SE and tonight, I went out, parked and noticed my brake lights will not turn off (including the 3rd brake light
on the spoiler)... They stay on even with the headlights and car turned off - strange!

Any ideas about what is causing this and if it is a easy or hard fix?

Thanks so much!!

Yep easy fix. Rubber stoppers under the switches on your brake pedal.

Yes. You don't need that exact piece to replace the stopper, just anything that'll fit and won't interfere with the brake pedal-- many just use a bolt/washer/nut.
