4 Headlights problem

Failure Date: 12/02/2020

The daytime and headlights lights will turn off randomly. (started around the 100k mileage). When stationary, the sliding doors do not shut correctly. 1st the driver's side door begins rattling like change is inside the door. 2nd then the door begins taking 2 turns to close, and then it is hit or miss when closing. The door closure button will occasionally not work, regardless of whether the car is off and parked. (started around the 45000 mileage). The driver's side seat belt connector occasionally indicates a fault error. Also the passenger side seat belt indicator will turn on when 5 pounds or less is in the passenger seat. (started around the 100k mileage). My biggest concern: since I believe the side doors are fatal accidents waiting to happen, I have my kids sit in the 3rd row. Only adults are allowed to sit in my passenger captain chairs. The blind spot warning does not work consistently.

7 Headlights problem

Failure Date: 12/02/2017

Was driving on an interstate highway at night when suddenly the dashboard lights went out. After a few seconds, the headlights went out as well. This was definitely a life-threatening situation! it happened on a 2200 mile trip and necessitated changing plans, motel reservations, and arriving late at the destination, because. . . It was the weekend (no service available) and we had to drive only in daylight hours. Taking it to a kia dealer ASAP, but am expecting an "we can't find anything wrong because it's an intermittent problem. " response.

The low beam headlights are manufactured to a specification that gives very limited length of visibility making fast highway driving at night very dangerous. Dealership said it was normal, manufacturer is looking into it. Simply put they are by degrees pointed downward too early and this provides very limited visibility and very limited reaction time in the event of a deer or other road hazard - forcing you to use high beams at all times at highway speed at night to ensure reasonable visibility.
