Got a message on my dash this morning saying one of my tail lights was out. I got out my owner's manual when I got home today to look up the bulb number. The manual listed one but also said if I have the "premium" tail lights, I have to go to the dealer. So I looked at my window sticker and I have premium tail lights (2014 Laramie Longhorn that hit 130,000 miles yesterday). I've been looking at prices on line and the cheapest OEM replacement I've found is a little over $200 (believe the part number is 68093078AC).
Has anyone else had to replace on of these expensive lights and, if so, did you find a better price?
I didn't see any LEDs out but I need to ask my wife to check while I press the brake pedal. I don't remember if I saw the message when I started the truck after work but I'll watch for it in the morning.
So to follow up, each time I start my truck, the instrument panel display tells me my right brake light is burned out. I finally got my wife in the truck to push the brake pedal for me. It is the CHMSL that's burned out. The owner's manual gives a number for the bulb but also says if you have the "premium LED" CHMSL, you have to go to the dealer. Pretty sure I can see a bulb behind the lens. Fingers crossed it's a $5 bulb instead of a $? LED assembly!
My rear tail light also failed today. Dealer is day my it isn't covered under my extended warranty, so I'm stuck paying $400 for an entire LED assembly.
Anyone have an resolution to this. I also bought the top tier extended warranty, and have 2 years and 55,000km remaining on it.
