Yikes!
I managed to get the error to come on while running an errand in the vicinity of the dealer, so I stopped by and had them look at it again today. I left the car running so the warning wouldn't clear, and the dealer was forced to look at it, at least.
They ended up replacing the tail light. The service manager claimed the tech found a short in the taillight that caused one of the LED elements to flicker and likely tripped the CC message. They're convinced the problem is fixed. Here's to hoping they're right.
