In the 9 years since purchase I've replaced my headlights 13 times. They generally burn out within a month of each other so now I just replace both when one goes out. I have to keep spares in the glove box because on one occasion they both went out on the same day.

1. the electronic stability control warning light comes on and goes off intermittently and unpredictably. 2. I replaced the map light. It just stopped working and I replaced it with a new one I ordered myself. A local garage did the work, not a dealer.

My problem is that the brake lights do not go out when the car is off, and they are constantly on while driving.

Fog lights quit working just after the warranty ran out. The problem is in the light, turn signal knob. They will come on and off at times when turning the turn signal on to make a right turn. I have come to the point that I have just turned the fog lights off.

The dim headlights on my Kia Soul were blowing every 3 months. I bought bulbs from the auto parts store from the cheap to super expensive bulbs. Nothing helped. I called Kia and they told me that I needed there bulbs. So, I bought those bulbs too. My headlights were still blowing. I checked the socket and it was brown like it had been overheated. I replaced those sockets and put another set of Kia bulbs in the car. That fixed the problem for about 6 months and they are back to going out on me. They both went out at the same time which is very very dangerous!!!!

2011 Kia Soul brake lights do not illuminate when engaged by pedal. Testing lights shows that all other lights are in working order. Vehicle VIN was not included in the stop lamp switch recall issued by Kia in 2013; however, this appears to be the same problem and in need of the stop lamp switch replacement.
