It could be the first getting in to the brick so I would say replace them and check that the dpc in the first course is OK
Sounds as tho the brick have been affected by damp or frost , a cut and fill approach is required ie take a patch out redo and allow to set and then move on to next effected area its very important that the areas effected are properly replaced and underpinned with slate if required and solidly pointed back in
Change bricks
Brick took out and replaced setting back to original brickwork above
