Headlights Problems of Kia Motor RIO

When driving at night the headlights will go out. This usually happens when I use the blinker, or go over a safety speed bump, but the headlights have gone off on their own too. I contacted the kia dealer but since there's no recall on the Rio they will not fix it. They did say there was a recall for the same issue on another type of kia but not the Rio. This has been happening since I bought the used car in 2016. When I realized it was happening the warranty had expired.
