My hazard light switch when pressed works, but it also turns on the ignition, by that all my ignition lights come on as well, as if I turned the key on. This happens without the key in the switch. I replaced the hazard switch with spares and still got the same result. Any assistance will be appreciated.

Neat, like the 2007 models that come with a push button start!
The hazard switch gets two 12V inputs (green-white and red-white I think).
One of them goes through the ignition switch, the other doesn't. Seems like
the switch (or the socket) is shorting these two rails.
You can remove the switch and see if you can cause the fault by jiggling
and pushing the socket. If you can't, check if pins 15 and 30 of the switch
are shorted when depressing. If they do the switch is bad.
If nothing like that happens then the short is downstream of the switch
and pressing tghe switch just provides the 12V path downstream.
