Why is your brake pedal very tight when it is cold out on your Nissan Pathfinder?
This happens in most cars w/ older brake fluid, and it can also happen w/ the Power Steering fluid. Over time, these two fluids absorb water. At a certain point, they have absorbed enough water that a freezing effect occurs. It is usually not total, and allows for some stopping power. However, if this happens, and allowing the car to warm up while pumping the brakes don't help, then you should have your fluids changed, possibly even flushed.

Why would the brake lights be stuck on on a 1998 Ford Contour?
It is because the switch on brake pedal has been moved. It must be pushed by the pedal all the time, and when you push the brake pedal, the button switch comes out, and then you should turn your lights on. This switch is tight by double nut next to the pedal, so disconnect it, release the tightened nut, or verify that it is tight, make sure it is pushed by the pedal every time this one is up, make a turn if needed to make tight again.

You have a rusty brake caliper. The piston is probably so rusted that its so tight for the piston to retract everytime you release the brake pedal. The only remedy for that problem is to buy a new or rebuilt caliper and replace the defective one...........You might want to consider replacing both....
