The contact owns a 2005 Kia Sorento. While driving 35 mph, the front headlights suddenly shut off. The vehicle was taken to the dealer and they stated that the light bulbs needed to be replaced. The vehicle has not been repaired. The current mileage was 58,469 and failure mileage was 38,000.
Headlights and taillights have been replaced at least 5 times in the 3 years I've had the Sorento. I keep my headlights off during the day and it seemed to delay the bulb going out as fast as it did when I kept them on all day. I keep replacement bulbs in my vehicle at all times due to this. You can buy them for $5 at your local auto parts store. Kia needs to recall this...way too many complaints for nothing to be wrong.
