E220 2013 Facelift - 2 brake lights gone in short period?
Hi, so a few months ago a warning message appeared saying 'Third brake lamp' which indicated that my middle brake lamp is not working.
Even though they are LED and supposed to last many hours, I figured I was just unlucky.
Then, shortly after, the left brake light also went out!
Is it just pure luck that 2 sets of LEDs went out in a short period of time or is there another reason why they may have gone? Maybe a fuse, or some other contact? Are car washes to blame? Or maybe the fact that all brake lamps are on the boot which is sometimes slammed in order to close and that may cause it to break?
Thank you for your input.
