Tail light issue

I’ve encountered a strange issue with driver’s side tail light. Part of it (last 2 squares) stays on even after the car is locked and the animation turns off (it’s not a parking light). For that part animation is not working correctly. I got the message stating an issue with the light couple of times but not always.

When digital lights are on at night whole tail light looks normal.

Scheduled a visit to the dealer next week. To me it sounds like an electrical issue or broken fuse? Anyone else had the same issue?

Just to let you know how it went. Dealer tried to recode the light - without success. New light was ordered from germany and it should be fitted next week.
