the "stop lamp" light means you have a burned out stop lamp in the tail light cluster. have someone stand behind the car while you press on the brake pedal. you will then be able to tell which one(s) are burned out. do a search on the steering wheel telescoping. it is the pin that has sheared on the collapsable steering column.

as for the steering, there's a nylon bushing at the end of the steering colum(sp) right behind the steering wheel that when wears out will cause the steering shaft to move up and down.
