Description of the problem	I have had to change the brake light and taillight bulbs every 2 or 3 months since i bought it in 2016. One of my lights is out again. I could not find a recall on it. I have spoken with other hyundai sonata owners and they are having the same issue. The housing is melting as well, making it most difficult to remove the bulbs. Not having brake lights is definitely a safety issue and hazard. The cost should not be on the owner as this has become a multiple, multiple vehicle problem. I cannot go through inspection with no brake lights and can get tickets while driving. This issue needs immediate attention and relief.
