2010 KIA SOUL Service Brakes Problems, Complaints and Defects

Issue ID	1211463
Internal NHTSA #	10749690
Manufacurer	Kia Motors America
Brand	KIA

Model Year	2010
File date	17/08/15
Component	SERVICE BRAKES
Product type code	VEHICLE
Description of the problem	I was notified by another driver that none of my brake lights were lighting up when i braked. I immediately took my kia soul to the dealership and they found a faulty brake switch. This was the same faulty brake switch that was subject to a recall in 2013. This means that the replaced new brake switch is also faulty after less than 2 years of driving. It is a worry to me that kia could be replacing a faulty recalled part with another faulty part, especially one that has major safety implications. I was also required to pay for this repair and this also seems unfair given the history of the particular part.

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