Description of the problem	I purchased this vehicle used from a local dealership back in 2013. It had 53000 miles on it i bought the extended warranty and have been unable to use it due to when the issues developed. Within three months i had to replace the passenger side then driver side low beam lights and the front and rear tail lights. This has occurred while driving. I had to do this about once a year. I recently june 2016 changed the passenger side bulb low beam again. Now i have noticed i have no tag lights. I ordered replacement bulbs from the dealership and had them installed and they still do not work. Yet no fuses are blown and there is no smell of burning wires or melted wires anywhere.
