Check brake switch yellow wire to see if it sending a signal to PCM if it does the switch should only work when brake is applied then check for a bad clock spring in steering column.

The recall is for only certain cars you have to check with a dealer on clock spring. Also, if over 70,000 miles it is a limited lifetime warranty.
