Must be a fancy car to have front and rear “Trouble Lights”

Might be a problem with the switch that you use to turn on the emergency flashers. If you monkey with that switch, jiggle it, turn it on and off, etc, does that rectify the problem at least temporarily? You might ask your shop to temporarily disconnect the harness from that switch, as a test.
