Thanks, no. I just had a plastic tail light lense replaced because the old
one got moisture in it.

New one has no moisture.

My GPS is plugged into the lighter so I can unplug that.

I did a google search and found another owner with the same problem except
different year. Never saw a solution posted.

Went out and tried driving the car now. Problem is gone. ?????

I am hoping that others have had this problem and the solution is known.

Thanks for any suggestions.

Vito

Moisture in the lamp assembly will corrode the bulb sockets and cause
strange problems. Pull all the bulbs and study the sockets for corosion.
Don't be surprised if you can't remove one or more bulbs.

Any moisture in the passenger compartment? On the floor, perhaps?
