Description of the problem	The warning system for the rear lights have been going off since purchasing the certified preowned vehicle in june 2014. It was returned the dealer multiple times for the issue and never fixed. While driving at night i smelled something burning and the warning system informed me to check all of my rear lights. There were no lights functioning on the rear of the vehicle while driving. The lights, brake lights, turn signals, and rear fog lamps were all not functioning. When a road side technician checked the vehicle he saw burnt wires and melted plastic on the lighting mount. This occurred during a routine trip from new jersey into philadelphia, pa and included driving over the ben franklin bridge. Once i reach philly i stopped the vehicle and called for assistance. That is when the issue was located. The car was towed to the dealer for repair. No more information has been provided from the dealer yet.
