EXTERIOR LIGHTING:TURN SIGNAL
Kia Motors America (Kia) is recalling certain 2015-2017 Sedona vehicles. The Smart Junction Box (SJB) software logic may not properly interpret the signals received from the multifunction switch, which could cause the turn signal to activate in the opposite direction of what the driver intended.
Fix: Dealers will update the SJB software, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed November 12, 2021. Owners may contact Kia customer service at 1-800-333-4542. Kia's number for this recall is SC217.
Owner Complaints (6)
When driving at night all of the lights on the vehicle go out, but the engine continues to run normally. After 10 -15 seconds the lights come back on and the display has the low tire indicator illuminated. This has happened multiple times. I have had it checked by my mechanic and everything seems normal. Any ideas?
The rear turn signal fill up with water and burn out the bulbs
Driving home at night my main headlights randomly turned off while moving and went completely dark. The headlight setting was set to always on at the time of the incident. I quickly tried flipping to the auto setting and the head lights came back on. I drive 50 yards and they went back off. Fortunately I was not to far from home and kept switching back and forth to keep the lights on. I see similar complaints on the internet. Scary!
Both low beam H7 bulbs have blown out 3 times each. I have used Basic bulbs, and more expensive bulbs and both have failed within several months. I have used gloves when installing them avoiding touching the glass each time. Bulbs seem to fit properly into socket. Called dealer and no advice as to why this reoccurs.
WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD THE LOW BEAMS STOPPED WORKING ON MY 2017 KIA SEDONA, REPLACED BOTH LIGHT BULBS AND THEY STILL DO NOT WORK, THE HIGH BEAMS WORK NOT THE LOW BEAMS.
MY HEADLIGHTS HAVE BLOWN 3 TIMES WITHIN THE LAST 3 MONTHS. IT WAS HAPPEN ON BOTH DRIVERS AND PASSENGERS SIDE 3 TINES EACH. SO I REPLACED A TOTAL OF 6 LIGHT BULBS.
