| Description of the problem | 2004 kia sorento. The rear tail lights and front fog lights burn out frequently. This leaves me unknowingly driving at night without proper lighting. I usually find out when other drivers tell me my lights are out. There is either an electrical or fuzebox problem with the kia sorento from 2003-06. So far, kia has refused to acknowledge the problem. I found many similar complaints online such as http://townhall-talk. Edmunds. Com/direct/view/. F14d197/. |
