Description of the problem	For years now i have replaced lights on this vehicle. I have replaced headlights at least 15 times and brake lights about 20 times. On at least 5 occasions all lights burned out at once.. The fuses and relays have never been bad because when i replace the lights they work. Something is wrong with the vehicle and i have known many other kia owners to have the same problem but the dealership says nothing is wrong. I can't afford another vehicle and this is a serious safety issue.
