Both low beam headlights went out at the same time. I checked the bulbs which turned out to be fine. It seems to be an electrical issue in the wiring. I have researched it and it is fairly common. Upon contacting Kia they claim it's not covered under warranty.

Has gone through 5 sets of headlamps in the first year and a half of cars life. Usually a electrical burning smell occurs when bulbs burn out. Have asked dealership to address the issue with every oil change only to get confused looks or insured excuses.
