Description of the problem	I own a 2007 kia sorento. Recently, my check engine and esc off lights became illuminated on my dashboard. I noticed that my brake lights were not illuminating when i pressed the brake pedal. After looking up my car make and model on the nhtsa website, i noticed there was a recall for my model year sorento for the exact same problems (nhtsa campaign number 13v114000/kia service campaign sc098). I took the carto my local kia dealership and they told me i was not eligible for the recall as my vin was not included. As such, i have to drive around without functional brake lamps until i get this problem resolved--increasing my chances of being rear-ended. I travel constantly for work so i do not have the luxury of not driving. This needs to be investigated and resolved.

What is Recall?
A recall is when a product is removed from the market or a correction is made to the product because it is either defective or potentially harmful.
What is Failure?
Failure is the state or condition of not meeting a desirable or intended objective, and may be viewed as the opposite of success. Product failure ranges from failure to sell the product to fracture of the product, in the worst cases leading to personal injury, the province of forensic engineering.

Non-conformance of a car component with the specified requirements, or non-fulfillment of user expectations, including the safety aspects.
