stoplamps are inoperative

RE: stoplamps are inoperative
If all three are not working, check to see if there is still an old fashioned switch at the brake pedal. Because I'd think further up the line they would have set it up so all don't fail at once. They'd be on more than one fuse for instance.

Note that failed brake lights due to a "bad" switch on the brake pedal can be fixed at home. Many folks simply replace the switch - which can be expensive. Most of the switches can be carefully disassembled, and the actual contact cleaned with some emory paper. Note that many times the switch will test "good" with a normal continuity tester but still not work due to the contact being corroded and not able to pass the required CURRENT when activated.

Take your car back to the dealer, on a car this new this part shouldnt've failed. I am 100% positive that theyll warranty this part for you. Even though its an easy fix, why spend your money on it, make them pay for it.
