Description of the problem	This is the most recent and serious electric issue; i do not know the exact dates of earlier issues. I believe all these electric issues are related. Issues began in 2010 after the purchase of the car. Was taken to the dealer for electrical issue and they repaired lose cluster array. Other electric issues from 2011-2013: when turning left the downhill brake control indicator would light would come on and prevent the car being put into park, the headlights flicker when car is at a stop, driver side low beam headlight frequently burns out. December 2013-january 2014: all dash indicator lights malfunctioned (no warning lights/gauges, including fuel, speed, turn signals, low fuel indicator, etc.). Dealer found the factory cluster array to be faulty. The dealer replaced the cluster with a new one. I am reporting the following: i was traveling 65mph and turned the cruise control off, the abs warning, downhill brake control, electronic stability control indicator and 4wd auto lock lights all illuminated. The car was operating normally. Today, all of these lights came, stayed on, then went off. Upon driving, the electronic stability control light came on and the car downshifted as i was driving. All other of indicator lights noted came back on. I am taking my car back to the dealer tomorrow. Many other kia owners are reporting almost identical issues. This most recent incident occurred when i was traveling at a high rate of speed and follows a serious of electrical issues i have had since i owned my car, new from the dealer. Something is wrong at the manufacturing level that needs to be addressed before someone is killed.
