Driving back home from work and driver behind notified me that brake lights don't work. I checked all fuses, bulbs and seems okay. I found that the brake light switch is defective. I saw recall on 2007 Hyundai Santa Fe but not 2006. Will the dealer will replace my defective brake light switch?

I am having the same symptoms shown below in my 2006 Hyundai Santa Fe. So far I do not see a recall notice from Hyundai. NHTSA campaign id number: 09V122000 PE09003 NHTSA action number: PE09003 component: Service brakes, hydraulic:switches:brake light potential number of units affected: 531894 summary: Hyundai is recalling 531,894 my 2006-2007 accent, entourage, sonata, my 2007 Azera, elantra and Santa Fe, my 2005-2007 tucson and my 2007-2008 veracruz vehicles. The stop lamp switch in the affected vehicles may malfunction. A malfunctioning stop lamp switch may cause the brake lights to not illuminate when the brake pedal is depressed or may cause the brake lights to remain illuminated when the brake pedal is released. A stop lamp switch malfunction may affect the operation of the brake-transmission shift interlock feature so the transmission shifter would not be able to be shifted out of park position. It may also cause the electronic stability control (ESC) malfunction light to illuminate, and it may not deactivate the cruise control when the brake pedal is depressed.
