Description of the problem	All my lights both internal & external are burning out every few months. And i've had to replace my battery times also. My headlights are replaced every 4-5 months now, first starting out every year has now dropped to months. The battery lasts from 10-13 months before having to be replaced. Now parking & brake lights are burning out at a rate of about every 6 months. Called my local kia service rep and he says my dash and console would have to be ripped out to repair, and of course it is no longer covered under warranty. Also my interior lights on dash,console and inside on the header no longer work. Have checked all fuses and can find nothing unusual.
