It very well could be a stop light switch. It is located under the dash next to the brake pedal. Disconnect it and if the lights do go out then replace the switch. alls well with what was said but it could just be out of adjustment have some one lift up on the pedal and see if the lites go out if yes its outofadjustment

Check the brake light switch. It's under the dash, connected to the brake pedal. If it's adjusted wrong or faulty, it could cause the brake lights to stay on. If you can use a meter and tell that the brake light switch is ok, next test the turn signal switch. Sometimes they short out and leave the brake lights on. You'll have to pull the steering wheel to do that.
