I have a 2018 179. With the slide open i have all running/brake/turn signals on both sides. When i close the slide i am losing brake/ turn signals on left side. Anyone seen this problem? Lights usually go out when slide has about 2 inches left before fully closing.

Personally I have not, however there are a lot of wires bundled together in the slide area that move back and forth when the slide is activated.  Hopefully you have a voltmeter and can trace the bad wires or physically locate the wire bundle and find which wires have been compromised.  On my 177 the wires are behind a removable panel located under the sink just above the floor and are easily accessible.

+1 That sounds like a ground issue someplace.
