| Description of the problem | Tail light problems. I started receiving warning messages regarding the tail light malfunction. We checked the lights but they were fine. In january the light went out. I took my car in for an oil change and was told that the bulbs were not only out but the cause was due to a circuit issue. After picking up my car, there was an additional warning for my sidemark light. |
