Kia software error in the Body Domain Control Unit (BDC) may cause a loss of low beam headlights and taillights.
The short version
Kia America, Inc. reported a problem with the body control module software. Here is what owners need to know.
A software error in the Body Domain Control Unit (BDC) may cause a loss of low beam headlights and taillights. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) 108, "Lamps, Reflective Devices, and Associated Equipment."
A loss of headlights and taillights can reduce visibility, increasing the risk of a crash.
Take it to a dealer — they will update the BDC software, free of charge.
