Well a more reasonable answer to your question. There may be several issues to consider. First, If this vehicle has ever been in a rear end accident, the body shop may have forgot to hook up the ground for the rear lights. Pull off your trunk side covers for your rear tail lights and there should be 2-3 brown wires hooked directly to the body of the car. they must be dirt and corrosion free. There are grounds under the hood of your vehicle, all brown wires, some located under the battery tray. Common spot. Again corrosion and dirt free. If your grounds look alright, check to make sure that the lightbulbs are all correct. Get new ones if need be. Some light bulbs have different resistances that play hell on these systems. Right now these are the "simple" solutions. Check these first and post back with your findings.
