The switch in the driver's door jamb was broken and would not turn on the dome light when the driver's door was opened. The repair took 5 minutes and cost $9.47. |
| 91000 mi | The problem with the TPMS light was never solved. Online research indicated it was likely the body control module (BCM). At the time we sold the car, the TPMS light was constantly on, even though the tires were all properly inflated. |

No horns. I don't know if the car was delivered that way because I never tried the horns when I left the car dealership. Didn't discover the problem for a few weeks. Who tries the horn untill you need it. ( No Horns ) I never tried the horns when I bought the Optoma, but didn't work after trying at a later date. Horns were shorted out & ordered.Replaced with no problem. |
| 3000 mi | Returned car for horn problem.Repaired. So far so good. Well it happened again (No Horns) Took the car back to the dealer to find they could not find the problem after 2 1/2 hrs of waiting. Got a loaner and left the car there. The next day they called to tell me they found the trouble. Will it pick up tomorrow |
| 5000 mi | tire pressure dash light came on. Checked tire pressure ok. Called kia & they told me to add 2# pressure to tires from 30# to 32#. That did the trick The light went off. |
