Issue: rnWhile towing a trailer, the trailer brake lights do not turn on when the Smart Cruise Control (SCC) slows the vehicle. rnNote: The vehicle's brake lights continue to function normally. rn rnSafety Risk: rnBrake lights that do not work could cause a following driver not to recognize that a vehicle ahead is braking. This could increase the risk of a crash. rn rnCorrective Actions: rnKia will notify owners by mail and instruct you to take your vehicle to a dealer to install an additional wire harness to the main fuse box.
