| Description of the problem | Tail lights and head lights melted. Replaced the bulbs multiple times and burnt out/melted. The most recent time i took my 2013 hyundai sonata in to get serviced i was told i need to replace all of the light assemblies since they all melted and that was the only fix. They told me nothing was wrong with the wiring/electric but it seems odd for all of the lights to melt even after being replaced from after melting in the past. They told me at the dealership that this was a very common problem with the sonata but there was no recalls out for it so the only thing they could do is replace the light assemblies again. |
