Problem: cabin light flashing occasionally when I made a turn, eventually the icon in the dash that signified an open door also flashed when I made a turn. Solution: turned out a door sensor was malfunctioning and reporting an open door when I turned. It was replaced, along with an oil change.

The other problem I"m living with is intermittent bluetooth. Kia says orig unit not so compatible with upgraded iphones. Dealer cost was something like 800 for new radio unit so I am living with that as well for now. Not sure what I'll do.
