Yes; just had this problem, but only with the brake light. A bulb is 'shorted'. Take it to the dealer, they will replace the bulb, and everything will go back to normal. It is something they did so that retards who never check their lights will know when a bulb goes out.

Bottom line: you just need a new bulb.

If you haven't done this yet let me know. I can take some pictures for you to show you how to take them out.
