A headlight switch failed causing excessive heat within the wiring harness. This failure created such heat that many of the wires within the wiring harness actually melted. Thus causing several of the vehicles electrical components to fail, including the taillights. This vehicle has a long history of electrical problems including windshield wiper failure during heavy rains. The electrical side door has been repaired at least 5 times.
