Switch, wire harness problems, bulbs blown or wrong connectorposition fitted to bulb.
Connector bulb fitting you can check.
Wireharnes probleems:
Get 2nd person and a multimeter set for suitable 12 VDC range
Let him step on the break and you mesure between ground and +terminal of light bulb connector if there is 12 VDC. If all wiring gives Voltage when brakes kicked, harness ok. Then bulb/connector problem: correctly matched.
If no 12 VDC from wiring the left with harness or switch.
Small job, go to local dealer. Needs adjustment or broke.

The driver's side brake light is out. I replaced the bulb. The light does work while the car is started, but the brake light does not come on. The passenger's side brake light is still working fine.

More then likely the brake light bulb you bought is the wrong one. This is the one you need 2057LL

Check the wiring going to the chassis holding the brake light bulbs. In the trunk when setting groceries and other items inside someone may have knocked a wire loose.
When you say none of the brake lights did you mean turn signals and parking lights as well on thefront and back?
