Brake lights staying on
I heard this is a common issue with Hondas. When I step on the brakes sometimes it will stay on for a long period of time or sometimes even forever unless I literally use my hands to pull on it a little. However when im pulling on it. Its not as if its stucked which I find weird.
Any suggestions on how to fix this issue???

Look at the brake pedal itself, follow the lever upwards and you'll see a pin-sensor mechanism, if you get a 10 or 12 open end you can adjust it forward or backward to make sure it's making adequate pressure with the lever itself.
Basically it's too far away from the lever, so it's taking a while for the lever to press back into it which turns off your lights. It's common with Civics.
