Brake lights will not go off. My ignition is off, keys are out of ignition and brake lights stay on. Also, my cruise control stopped working while driving.

Your brake light switch is not shutting off for some reason. Sometimes they are designed to rest against a rubber bumper on the pedal and the rubber falls off. Sometimes it's just a bad switch.
