Lighting and/ or electrical. When using the auto headlight switch, all lights will come on randomly and periodically and stay on until you notice them or they ware down your battery. This is something that could be checked out by dealer and I will ask about it. So, for now, I do not use the auto headlight switch. My other problem is a glass issue. For no apparent reason, when I shut my driver side door a few weeks ago. My entire rear window shattered into pieces. There were no signs of damage to the rear window. Happened in my drive way. But, it could have happened anywhere. Filed a insurance claim and had the rear window replaced.

WE CAREFULLY FELT THE SUNROOF SHIELD AND DETERMINED THE SUNROOF EXPLODED INTO MANY PIECES. NOTHING FROM THE OUTSIDE OR INSIDE FELL ON THE SUNROOF TO CAUSE IT TO SHATTER. WE HAVE NOT USED THE SUNROOF SINCE NOVEMBER OF 2017. WE IMMEDIATELY CALLED THE KIA DEALERSHIP TO NOTIFY THEM OF THE PROBLEM AND THEY ASKED US TO BRING THE VEHICLE IN RIGHT AWAY. IF WE HAD THE SUNROOF SHIELD OPEN, WE WOULD HAVE SUFFERED NUMEROUS INJURIES. WE CONTINUED TO INVESTIGATE...
