Description of the problem	My left tail light is out. I have gone to the mechanic, changed the light bulb but no fix. I was advised there was some sort of short happening from kia through a recall letter. Since i've received the letter nothing has been done. I was told not to drive the car and to park it away from other cars in case of it catching fire. I live in the bay area and do not have the luxury of parking it away from other cars, this is impossible. I need to know when they're going to fix this? I can't move around without my car and i also fear for my neighbors assets if this car would to ignite as the recall states. Please help and advise on what can be done to solve this issue promptly.
