Description of the problem	Approximately 1 year ago, the back (driver-side) tail lights were malfunctioning and i had to replace the bulb. I did mention this to the mercedes dealership when i went to service another issue, but they stated there was no issues, just a bad bulb. Unfortunately this happened a few times before a service tech noticed that the back board was "fried" and suggested i go to a mercedes dealership to get it repaired. Not only am i past the 5yr, 50,000 mile warranty, so mercedes will not cover the costs, but the dealership has had my car for 3 days and cannot determine how to repair the issue. They replaced the board, but they are now stating that they may need to replace all of the wires. I called mercedes to complain, but without a recall in place, they will not cover the costs to repair.
