Turn Signal Problems of Kia Motor Optima

The headlights fail, while driving. The headlights work in delay mode, the park lights can be turned on and off, but the headlights do not work consistently. Turn signals work. The headlights do not always work while driving. I've had the vehicle to 3 mechanic shops they all agree it should be recalled by kia. ## #vpic# 1 - check digit (9th position) does not calculate properly #vpic#.

A CO-worker followed me home and told me my right rear brake light was out. Then my right turn signal indicator on the dash started flashing real fast. Few days later my dash lights started flashing on & off. Had a friend watch the exterior lights and he said they were flashing on & off with the dash. Said he had never seen anything like that! if my headlights are on the lights don't flash. Even though my lights come on, the brake & signal lights don't work when I apply them. I have not driven my car because of it. Every one tells me with as little mileage as I have on my car - I should not be having these type of problems. I haven't taken my car to the dealer because I don't want to get a ticket or possibly cause an accident because my light don't work! I'm single mother and can't afford to have a mechanic tear my car up to see if he can find the problem.

The contact owns a 2011 kia Optima. While attempting to make a left turn, the contact inadvertently deactivated the headlights when the turn signal lever was pushed down. The contact stated that the end point of the turn signal lever included a knob that controlled the headlights, which easily rotated to deactivate the headlights while making a turn. The vehicle was taken to the dealer for diagnostic testing where the technicians advised that there was not a remedy available for the issue and the design of the vehicle could not be compromised. The vehicle was not repaired. The approximate failure mileage was 1,300. Updated 02/15/bf the dealer informed the consumer, there was no fix for the problem. Updated 02/29/12.

The headlights and brake lights/turn signal lights burn out repeatedly. At least one of them burns out every 2-3 months.
