It's not a reasonable expectation that you should have to get your taillights fixed 1X a month for the forseeable future.
I know it's a tough crowd around here, so I knew to expect some of this type of backlash.
If you want to pay $30K for a car... only to have to fix the tail lights 1X a month, then go for it. But I'm DEFINITELY not that guy.
I didn't plunk down all my hard earned cash so I can ride around in a defective car that is perpetually in a state where it needs repair. That's not me at all.

Well that (bolded) couldn't be further from the truth. There are so many fanboys in here this forum is in a perpetual state of agreement.
However a lot of people here are reasonable and would 1. Ignore this issue, 2. Fix it themselves.
Especially if it's not dangerous.
My wife's Focus which was in the shop 3 times for transmission issues (which was dangerous, as it locked up and jerked at speed) was finally fixed the 3rd time. We would have tried to lemon it if it didn't work out, but we sold it to a family member and it was totaled (not due to the transmission, just driver error).
I guess if you want to go through the hassle of lemoning the car, you'd have to prove that 2 separate tail lights are a singular thing.
