Description of the problem	3 out of the 4 led tail lights have stop working. The car did not gave me any notice of the tail lights failing. While driving on a highway, i was stopped by a police officer and given a warning. On further research, there is a design flaw within the tail light system that will cause it to fail. It seems bmw already knows about this issue but only covers repair to cars under warranty. They have recognized their design flaw but have not taken steps to fix the problem to all affected customers. On the words of a police officer, this is a safety issue that should be taken care asap.
