I'm having the same problem and have yet to track down the source of my problems. Do you your turn signals work properly? If they dont there's a strong possibility that your turn signal switch is bad. Before that there are several other things you can check. Behind the drivers side rear quarter panel trim there are three connectors and a ground, clean the ground and check and clean the black connector. Do you have a trailer hook up? If you do you can trace the wires and see if any of them are frayed or anything. Also its worth checking to see if your bulbs are bad if you haven't already. I wish you luck in finding the problem.
