Description of the problem	We have a 2007 model kia optima and have had continuous problems with the turn indicator bulb on the tail light blowing. Also the same problem with the left front headlight burning out. We have replaced the rear bulb three times and the left headlight twice already since we have had the car. I was curious as to whether this was a common problem that other kia owners were having. The turn signal bulb went out in june of 2009 and again in october of 2009. The latest incident was on january 4th in 2010.
