Need Help, no brake lights...

Hey there guys, it's been a while. Hope you are all safe and healthy... I'm having issues with my brake lights... I bought a new phone mount/charger, not sure if that is what caused the issue but that's when I noticed. I have no brake lights, my cigar lighter stopped working as well. That is where I had the charger plugged in. Checked all fuses, none blown. Any ideas?

That is pretty weird. Take a test light or meter and see if you have power at the brake lights. I would check all the fuses to be sure.

Uh, did you check the bulbs? Also, did you recently hook up a trailer brake controller?
