Unfortunately, you have bought the "lemons of lemons" and you are going to have further problems. The Ford Escort for years has not had good running points and everything from the trani to breaks failing has been reported. If you want to keep the car it's best to get the extended warranty on it if you can (it saves a lot of money.) You will have to take your car into a mechanic as it's probably the computer chip (you may not have to replace it, but it could have come loose.) This happens a lot on Fords (I own a 1994 Ford Taurus.)

Check the brake light switch. This can cause the brake lights to go out. There have been a couple of recalls on the 2001 for this exact problem. Contact your local VW dealer and have the switch replaced.

Probably the wrong bulbs or the brake lights are getting stuck "on". Or maybe a combination of the two. Check that you have the right bulbs and check to make sure something isn't keeping the brake lights on. FriPilot
