Brake Light problem #1

I want to complaint about the brake light of all the new Audi cars, because those led lights are just way too harsh and dazzling. I know making those light be bright is good to caught other drivers' attention. However, Audis are doing it too much. Every time I stopped behind an Audi, I felt dizzy and could not open my eyes.

Exterior Lighting problem #2

The third brake light intermittently stops working. Being that it is intermittent, it tells me the led and circuitry are working. Also, a warning alert will illuminate on my dash instrument cluster and not when the light is working again. Upon further searching on-line, there is an issue with a solder joint cracking. I believe this is the case because when I jiggle the connector, the light will illuminate. Since this light is required by law, this is a very important safety issue. And a rather expensive one since the replacement part alone is $150-$200.
