| Description of the problem | While driving with daughter i used my turn signal on a busy hwy going 70mph to change lanes. The headlights, dash lights, and radio/clock all flickered and cut completely off. I pulled over and turned the car off and back on. The lights came back on but it occurred again. A few days went by and we were traveling to a nearby store and the same issue occurred and has kept occurring. I cannot just be trapped in my home afraid to be out after dark or travel with my child at night. This is a safety issue and kia should fix it. This is not normal wear and tear. It's dangerous! I cannot believe there is no recall for this issue... |
