Description of the problem	Lighting fuses melted - had the vehicle in multiple times for light bulb issues, etc and had the radio swapped out and it still continues to go off and on. Lights worked here and there but seemed to always go out after driving a significant amount of time and usually at night and then after sitting would work again in the morning until it was driven a bit - lighting melted to the engine and was told all fuses needed to be replaced but the car continues to have issues with the electrical system. I called the dealership - a second dealership and then corporate office and no one would do anything to fix the issue and i was told they never heard of this happening - come to find out it is a common issue in these cars.
