The seals on the rear lamps emit a gas that causes damage to the electrical connectors on the LEDs (Light Emitting Diodes) inside the rear lamp. In some cases, the LEDs become inoperative.

Action is to replace the seals or lamps on both sides of the car. If one of the lamps fails, both need to be replaced. If both lamps work fine, only the seals need to be replaced.
My car was built in Dec, 2009. My tails failed.
