Default LED light color change

Hi All, wondering if anyone can shed some information on the reason for this color change, and is there any way to fix this? is this a bulb issue?

The images are for my backup lights on 2009 GS350, light is 921 PUTCO LED - BLUE

First Pic is backup light when initially shifted to reverse (seem normal)

The second is my backup light when in reverse >1 sec.

TANGS350 - the LED bulbs shouldn't change color. Sounds like a bulb issue. You should be able to confirm it by swapping the bulbs to another location and see if they are still doing the same thing or not.

LED bulbs will gradually change color over time from my experience, but if I am understanding your post correctly it is happening almost immediately and that would be a fault/defect in the pair you purchased. It happens, I've had some duds, return/replace them if it bothers you!
