What owners wrote
Drivers side brake lights went out, car is only two years old. Three weeks later passenger side brake lights went out. Driving on a highway for three hours as people honked and rolled their windows down to let us know we didn't have brake lights. Took to get fixed and the lightbulbs, which are LED and should have lasted longer than two years, are not replaceable, the entire tail light assembly needs to be purchased at $700 a piece.
Taillights, brakelights work inconsistently. Nothing is wrong with the bulbs. It is the assembly and design. It will cost about 1200-2000 dollars. Vehicle barely has 32000 miles on it. This can lead to an accident.
