Sometimes that’s due to operating with just the DRL.What I seem to notice is a lot of cars with no taillights on at all at night. Not sure if they don't have their headlights on, but the only thing on the rear is a reflection.

Usually it's just one or the other out that I noticed. Lol. Definitely a significantly higher amount of burned out bulbs than other makes though. I did one so far on my fiance's Sonata.Every time I'm out driving, I see a Hyundai or Kia vehicle with BOTH brake lights out (if they have incandescent bulbs). It's every single time I'm out on the road... doesn't matter which model, as long as it has incandescent bulbs -- multiple vehicles a day. My 2002 Tahoe has the same bulbs in the brake lights as it did from the factory. A 2018 or whatever Kia... dead. I've even had three Hyundai/Kia rental cars with both brake lights out when I traveled for work (pre-COVID). Is it something about the owners? Or is this something going on with Kia/Hyundai cars? Maybe crappy bulbs? Questionable electrical? It's pretty dangerous. I almost rear-ended one on my motorcycle.
My 2005 taillights delaminated before any bulbs went out. I've only had to do one DRL in the past 10 years.Its usually a Chevy pickup truck I see with 2, or all 3 brake lights out.

Not sure about Hyundai and Kia, my 95 Corolla had a lot of brake bulbs burnt back then because the wiring harness socket "melted" with the bulb's tip. Finally it was so bad I replace both harness and then it lasted 120k without burning one.Every time I'm out driving, I see a Hyundai or Kia vehicle with BOTH brake lights out (if they have incandescent bulbs).
