| Tl- the contact owns a 2011 kia optima. while attempting to make a left turn, the contact inadvertently deactivated the headlights when the turn signal lever was pushed down. the contact stated that the end point of the turn signal lever included a knob that controlled the headlights, which easily rotated to deactivate the headlights while making a turn. the vehicle was taken to the dealer for diagnostic testing where the technicians advised that there was not a remedy available for the issue and the design of the vehicle could not be compromised. the vehicle was not repaired. the approximate failure mileage was 1,300. kmj | |||
