ERROR MESSAGE(HELP)
I am getting a bunch of error messages that just started coming on...was 4 total now 2 appear. Nope..back to 4 again.
1) TAILLIGHT LEFT BACK UP LIGHT ON
2) TAILLIGHT RIGHT BACK UP LIGHT ON
3) TAILLIGHT RIGHT
4) LICENSE PLATE LIGHT RIGHT

When i check all of my lights and such, everything is working. What the hell is going on? please help me if you can...i am ok to drive, it seems, but if something does go out and i get pulled over it would suck...and MB if the service department is even open on sat will charge me 84 bucks an hour to try to fix this... thanks in advance.

maybe disconnect your battery for a bit and then hitch it back up and see what happens.

Disconnect battery for 30 min at least.
this will clear all errors from computer.
As far as driving, you are safe- if one of the light bulbs goes out your car will use different one to substitute burned one ( this applies to tail, brake or turn signals).

If the lights are still working fine, it might be possible that you have a burnt out fuse. This can cause the car to "think" that all the rear lights are not working. Check your car manual for more info. I would only disconnect the battery if all other options don't work.
