one of the LED on the trunk ain't working...
was driving my friend's c240 to hear the exhaust he just got while following my car which he was driving, I notice one of the LED bulbs on the trunk lid brake light is not working. And then when we get to his house I tested it again after restarting the car and it worked again. However, friend said that wasn't the first time he saw that same LED weren't working.
Any thoughts? I'll only have time to get it fixed after the summer vac starts.

I remember back in '02/'03, people here would have said "lemon" the car 
It its out of warranty, you can either take it out and try to see if it is a loose connection and fix it yourself, or just buy a new one to replace it.
