Both front daytime running lights (drls) fading to yellow color. The drls look like they are off when driving in the daytime. The led strip is also faded when headlight control is switched to on. Limits visibility in the nighttime. This condition occurs when the car is parked, in motion, and after multiple restarts.
The passenger side break light and signal stop working occasionally. I took it to a certified Audi service center, and they were able to fix the issue but reported that the central wire system that makes the break light and signal work are defective and that the issue will continue given that the cables may move every time I close and open and close my truck as the cables run through there. This is a mayor safety issue.
