Anyone had to replace the 3rd Brakelight?

I noticed after a drive up in the city (SF) a couple weeks ago that the red lens on my 3rd brakelight is gone. It's as if it just fell completely off! The light still illuminates when I step on the pedal, there's just no red plastic covering anymore. Has anyone else had this problem?

FWIW, my car is under warranty, so I'm not really worried about it - just curious...

It is easy to pull it out....had to pull it out to add my 3rd break light flasher. Might take a tech 5 min to do it.

Edit: Just saw it is a cabrio...not sure...but simple on an S.
