Description of the problem	I have a 2006 kia sorento. I bought the car brand new. Since that time i have had to change the exterior front and back lights a least 3-4 times. The interior light has been change 1 time and the ac control panel goes off and on. The car has been evaluated 2 times while they were changing bulbs and nothing was found. I have spoken to another sorento owner and she has had the same problems. Kia response to my complaint is they believe it is because the bulb is not their brand. The first couple of times i had them replaced with the bulbs and they did not last. I am filing a complaint because i believe this is a recall problem and i am afraid of what might happen next. If you have an questions you may contact me.
