| Description of the problem | We are having to replace low beam lights every 2 to 3 months which also lead to the passenger side low beam wiring harness to burn up and also led to burning up the brake lights , we replaced the burned wiring harness and replaced low beam lights to led lights with fans built into the lights after 2 weeks replacing led lights they also burned out. Kia really needs to look at this issue and step up and fix and replace this safety concern. |
