WHILE DRIVING MY KIA SOUL MY HEADLIGHTS WILL SWITCH COMPLETELY OFF AND IT HAS BECAME VERY DANGEROUS ESPECIALLY WHEN I AM DRIVING ON DARK BACK ROADS. I NOTICE IT HAPPENS WHEN I PUT MY SIGNAL LIGHT ON AND TURN IT SEEMS THAT THIS MAY BE A TRIGGER TO THE MALFUNCTION. I HAVE SEEN THAT OTHER KIA SOUL OWNERS HAVE BEEN EXPERIENCING THIS SAME MALFUNCTION AND I WONDER WHY IT HAS NOT BEEN A RECALL. THE LIGHTS WILL SOMETIMES POP RIGHT BACK ON BUT LAST NIGHT IT BLINKED OUT FOR A MINUTE AND I HAD TO PUT THE HIGH BEAM ON. BUT ALL LAST NIGHT THE HIGH BEEN SEEMED TO NOT WANT TO WORK SO NOW IT IS DANGEROUS TO DRIVE AT NIGHT TIME.

I HAD TO PULL OVER AND HAVE MY HUSBAND DRIVE IN FRONT OF ME WITH OUR OTHER VEHICLE IN FEAR THE LIGHTS WOULD GO OUT AND I WOULDN'T BE ABLE TO SEE THE ROAD AHEAD. I COULD OF BEEN IN A SERIOUS CRASH. ALSO CAME HOME TO A DEAD BATTERY ONE DAY BECAUSE MY LIGHTS WHICH WERE OFF WHEN I LEFT THE HOUSE RANDOMLY WERE ON WHEN I GOT HOME THAT NIGHT.

PROBLEM STILL PERSISTS. I HAVE ENCLOSED COPY OF REPAIR BILLS(OVER $700.00) & A RECALL ARTICLE FROM RECALL MASTERS. (RECALLMASTERS.COM) I REALIZE THAT THE 2014 SOUL IS NOT MENTIONED IN THIS NOTICE BUT, IT HAS ALL THE SAME CHARACTERISTICS.I HAVE NO IDEA WHAT CAUSES THIS TO HAPPEN.

ONE THE HEADLIGHTS STARTED OUT AS JUST FLICKERING, IT WOULD TURN OFF FOR 2 SECONDS BUT WILL COME BACK ON AS I'M DRIVING. THEN AFTER ABOUT A WEEK, IT WOULD BE A WHILE AND I HAVE TO TURN MY LIGHTS OFF THEN TURN IT BACK ON TO GET IT TO WORK AGAIN.

SINCE I'VE OWNED MY 2014 KIA SOUL, I'VE HAD TO DEAL WITH A RECALL FOR THE A PIN (SO MY STEERING WHEEL WON'T STOP WORKING) AND MY A PROBLEM WITH MY AXEL NUT 2/01/2017, WHICH BEGAN SHAKING MY VEHICLE ON HWY 16, ALMOST CAUSING AN ACCIDENT. I HAD THAT FIXED AND JUST HAD A RECALL SERVICE AND REALIZED THIS WAS SOMETHING I ALREADY PAID FOR, WHICH I'VE REQUESTED A REFUND. IN BETWEEN THOSE INSTANCES, I HAD BOTH HEADLIGHTS STOP WORKING, IN THE DARK, WHILE I WAS DRIVING ON A POORLY LIT HWY 302. I HAD THOSE REPLACED AND THE DRIVER SIDE WENT OUT AGAIN, AT NIGHT, WHILE I WAS DRIVING. I WAS TOLD THAT THE HEADLIGHT CONNECTIONS WERE MELTED. I DID SOME RESEARCH AND THIS SEEMS TO BE A COMMON OCCURRENCE. WITH THAT SAID...THIS CAR HAD A POTENTIAL ISSUE WITH ROLLING, STEERING AND VISIBILITY...PROBABLY WOULDN'T HAPPEN ALL AT ONCE BUT YOU NEVER KNOW. REGARDLESS, I'M STARTING TO WONDER HOW SAFE THIS VEHICLE REALLY IS AND WOULD HOPE THAT KIA WOULD BE A RESPONSIBLE COMPANY AND ASSIST WITH HELPING THE CUSTOMER REMEDY THESE CONCERNS. I REALLY AM CONCERNED FOR MY SAFETY AND WILL BE DRIVING ANOTHER VEHICLE MORE REGULARLY. KIA TOLD ME THAT SINCE THERE IS NO OPEN RECALL ON THE HEADLIGHTS THAN THERE IS NOTHING THEY COULD DO. I HOPE THEY UNDERSTAND THAT ALL 3 OF THE AFOREMENTIONED ISSUES ARE SIGNIFICANT BUT FEAR MY CONCERNS FELL ON DEAF EARS. MAYBE AN OFFICIAL REVIEW WITH NHTSA WILL KEEP KIA ACCOUNTABLE TO THEIR ACTIONS OR LACK THERE OF. THANKS FOR YOUR TIME.

THE LEFT HEADLIGHT WOULD WORK ON AND OFF. I HAD THE DEALER CHECK IT AND THEY REPLACED THE HEADLIGHT ON 12 DEC WITH A SYLVANIA HEADLIGHT BULB I PROVIDED. AFTER A WHILE THE SAME ISSUE HAPPENED AGAIN. ON 13 JAN 17 THEY REPLACED THE HEADLIGHT AGAIN. THIS TIME WITH A KIA BULB.. SAME ISSUE. I HAD MORE ISSUES WITH THE LIGHTS WORKING SOMETIMES AND NOT WORKING. THE LIGHT WENT OUT AGAIN AND I TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP AGAIN AND THIS TIME THEY FOUND A SHORT. THE PROBLEM HAPPENED WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS MOVING AND ALSO WHEN IT WAS STOPPED. SOMETIMES IT WOULD BE WORKING WHEN I PARKED BUT WOULD NOT WORK WHEN I STARTED THE CAR BACK UP AGAIN. IT WAS AMAZING THAT THE DEALERSHIP DIDN'T TROUBLE SHOOT THE ISSUE THE FIRST TIME. THEY SAID THE WARRANTY WAS INVALID AFTER WE CHANGED THE BULB WITH A NON-KIA BULB. THE DEALERSHIP CONFIRMED THE FIRST REPLACEMENT BULB WAS COMPATIBLE WITH THE KIA SOUL.

I BOUGHT MY 2014 KIA SOUL WITH 6 MILES ON IT NOV 2013. I HAVE HAD NOTHING BUT PROBLEM AFTER PROBLEM WITH MY HEADLIGHTS TURNING OFF WHEN I USE MY TURN SIGNAL OR AFTER USING MY TURN SIGNAL. I HAVE TAKEN IT TO THE DEALERSHIP TO HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM FIXED. FINALLY BIG RED SPORTS & IMPORTS TOOK A KIA SOUL OFF THEIR CAR LOT (AFTER MY 3RD TRIP THERE & THEY STILL DIDN'T HAVE THE PART) TO PUT A NEW PART IN MY CAR TO FIX THE PROBLEM. I STILL HAD PROBLEMS WITH MY HEAD LIGHTS SO I TOOK MY KIA TO A DIFFERENT DEALERSHIP. NOW MY CAR WON'T GO INTO REVERSE AT TIMES,AND WHILE I'M "TRYING" TO PUT IT IN REVERSE MY AUTOMATIC LOCKS START LOCKING AN UN-LOCKING REALLY FAST. I HAVE TO TURN MY CAR OFF, AND TRY TO START ALL OVER SO IT WILL GO INTO REVERSE. I HAVE ALSO ALREADY HAD TO HAVE THE BATTERY REPLACED. MY WORRY IS MY SAFETY WHEN DRIVING AT NIGHT WITH MY HEAD LIGHTS WANTING TO WORK WHEN THEY FEEL LIKE IT. OR IF I GET STRANDED SOMEWHERE BECAUSE MY CAR WON'T SHIFT GEARS. *TR
