The three LED's in the far right hand column of my driver's side tail light quit working. I thought it was kind of strange that just those three like that quit.

I tried doing a search and couldn't find anything, but are there any DIY fixes for this so I don't have to buy a pair of tailights and new tint just to fix three LEDs?

Could it be the recall?

Buy a new set. Not worth trying to fix.

Wasn't the recall for faulty wiring which would cause the warning light on the dash to illuminate and the tail lights to mal function? I dont think the recall has anything to do with LEDs??

Fixable. Find the right type of LED and solder it in. I can take a crack at it if you want, though I don't know what I'm in for since I have never seen the insides of an OEM LED taillight. But, I am handy with a soldering iron...

You may also have a crack in the circuit board, or some kind of damage to it that would cause the three to go out.
