Is it an aftermarket brake light assembly? That's messed up if they wont fix it. You could always put a small bead of silicone around the edge. Not gonna leak after that, and it isn't hard to remove.

That's what I'd do too. Hell even remove the light yourself and run a bead on the seam, let it dry and then do a bead between the light housing and truck and tighten it down.
