VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL
WE WERE DRIVING INTERSTATE 80 WESTBOUND. AS WE WERE EXITING A REST AREA ENTERING THE INTERSTATE THE ACCELERATOR BECAME STUCK AND THE SPEED OF THE VEHICLE COULD NOT BE CONTROLLED. WE WERE REACHING SPEEDS UPWARDS OF 90-100 MPH. WE COULDN'T GET THE VAN TO SLOW DOWN SO WE PUT THE VAN IN NEUTRAL TO SLOW IT DOWN. THE VAN FINALLY SLOWED BUT BECAUSE THE RPMS OF THE ENGINE WERE SO HIGH AND WOULD NOT STOP THE ENGINE MADE A SCREAMING NOISE AND THE VAN FINALLY STOPPED. WE HAD IT TOWED ABOUT 50 MILES TO THE KIA DEALER IN DES MOINES IOWA AND ARE WAITING TO SEE IF THERE WAS A FACTORY DEFECT THAT CAUSED THE PEDAL TO BECOME STUCK ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR WITH NO RELEASE.. IN THE MEAN TIME IT IS FEARED THAT THE ENGINE IS BLOWN, MAKING PAYMENTS STILL AND NO VEHICLE OR HELP FROM DEALER AT THIS TIME.. *JS

ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL (ESC), ENGINE, ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
I HAVE BEEN HAVING AN INTERMITTENT "NON-START" ISSUE WITH MY CAR. I WOULD TURN THE KEY AND NOTHING. THE LIGHTS WOULD GO ON, RADIO WOULD GO ON, BUT THE CAR WOULDN'T DO ANYTHING TOWARDS CRANKING AND STARTING. NO CLICKING NOISE, NOTHING. I WOULD GET OUT OF THE CAR OPEN AND CLOSE SOME DOORS AND MOST OF THE TIME IT WOULD START. ALSO, I WAS DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY WHEN THE ESC OFF LIGHT CAME ON. WHENEVER I STOPPED IT WOULD GO OFF UNTIL I GOT BACK ON THE HIGHWAY AGAIN. I HAD MY MECHANIC PLUG IT IN TO SEE IF ANY ERROR CODES SHOW, BUT THERE WAS NOTHING. I CHECKED ONLINE AND FOUND A RECALL FOR THESE EXACT ISSUES TIED TO THE STOP LAMP SWITCH, BUT WHEN I TOOK THE CAR TO KIA DEALERSHIP THEY SAID THEY HAD FIXED THE RECALL A COUPLE YEARS EARLIER. I BOUGHT A NEW STOP LAMP SWITCH MYSELF, (GENUINE KIA PART, NOT GENERIC,) AND HAD IT REPLACED AGAIN. (CHEAP PART OF AND INSTALLATION.) I THEN WENT ON ROAD TRIP AND NOTHING WAS FIXED. ESC OFF LIGHT WAS ON NEARLY THE WHOLE TIME AND I HAD A NON-START DURING TRIP. THERE HAS TO BE ANOTHER ISSUE INVOLVED HERE. I LIVE IN NEW YORK CITY SO I HARDLY EVER AM DRIVING ON HIGHWAYS, SO ROAD TRIPS WAS ONLY TIME I WOULD SEE ESC OFF LIGHT AND I RARELY IF EVER USE CRUISE CONTROL, SO I DON;T KNOW IF I WOULD HAVE THE CRUISE CONTROL ISSUE TIED TO THIS STANDARD GROUP OF ISSUES EITHER. *JS

THE REAR PASSENGER POWER DOOR WENT OUT. A COUPLE DAYS LATER THE REAR DRIVERS POWER DOOR AND THE LOCK ON THE HATCH QUIT WORKING. THE DOORS WILL POP OPEN WHILE DRIVING.I I CALLED THE KIA DEALERSHIP AND THEY ARE UNAWARE OF THE PROBLEM BUT OFFERED ME FINANCING TO REPAIR THE PROBLEM. I TOLD THEM THERE IS COMPLAINT AFTER COMPLAINT ONLINE DEALING WITH THE SAME ISSUE! CUSTOMERS HAVE REPLACED MOTORS, HAVE HAD ELECTRIC REPLACED, REPLACED SLIDING DOOR MECHANISMS AND EVEN REPLACED THE COMPUTER AND ARE STILL HAVING THE SAME ISSUES!!!!!! I AM LIVID!!!SO I HAVE NO CHOICE BUT TO PAY THEM TO FIX IT BECAUSE I'VE CALLED AROUND AND ALL THE REPAIR SHOPS TOLD ME THEY WILL NOT TOUCH IT. PROBLEM IS THAT THE DOORS DO NOT STAY SHUT!! I CANNOT PUT MY CHILDREN IN THE CAR BECAUSE THE DOORS OPEN WHILE DRIVING. THE DOORS WILL NOT LOCK PERIOD!!! EVEN PARKED AND LOCKED YOU CAN WALK UP TO THE DOOR AND PUT NO EFFORT INTO OPENING THE DOOR!!! I BOUGHT THE KIA USED IN JUNE OF 2013 AND STILL OWE ALMOST 10 THOUSAND DOLLARS AND KIA IS NOT WILLING TO PAY FOR THE REPAIR....I WILL NEVER EVER BUY ANOTHER KIA!!!!!! *TR

SUSPENSION
2007 KIA SEDONA. AT ABOUT 62,000 MILES SUSPENSION WAS MAKING NOISE. DEALER DIAGNOSED THE FRONT SUB CROSS MEMBER BUSHINGS AS NEEDING REPLACEMENT-TO THE TUNE OF $2200.00! THIS WAS DONE AND IT FIXED THE PROBLEM. AT 67,000 MILES A NEW FRONT END NOISE HAS DEVELOPED OVER BUMPS. I'M NOW TOLD THE CONTROL ARM BUSHINGS NEED TO BE REPLACED AND SWAY BAR LINK BUSHINGS WILL BE NEXT. CAR IS MAINTAINED AND USED FOR LOCAL SHORT TRIPS AROUND TOWN. I WOULD EXPECT A RECALL FOR USING SUBSTANDARD BUSHINGS. *TR

MECHANIC WAS ROTATING TIRES AND OBSERVED THAT RIGHT FRONT COIL SPRING WAS BROKEN AND LEFT FRONT WAS CLOSE TO BROKEN. OPENED TICKET WITH KIA CONSUMER AFFAIRS. DURING MY INVESTIGATION, I FOUND THAT THERE WAS A RECALL (BULLETIN SC-095) FOR 2006 MODEL YEAR FOR THIS SPECIFIC ISSUE. KIA STATED THAT RECALL WAS APPLICABLE TO '06 ONLY. WE LIVE AND OPERATE THE VEHICLE IN IL, ONE OF THE STATES LISTED IN THE RECALL. MY ASSUMPTION IS THAT THE CONDITIONS CAUSING THE ISSUE DEALT WITH IN THE ORIGINAL RECALL CONTINUED TO EXIST IN LATER MODEL YEARS. I FEEL THAT THIS COULD POTENTIALLY BE A SIGNIFICANT SAFETY ISSUE. HAD MY WIFE HAD TO MAKE A SUDDEN STOP OR SUDDEN EVASIVE MANEUVER, WITH ONE BROKEN SPRING AND ANOTHER LIKELY TO BREAK, THERE COULD POSSIBLY HAVE BEEN A CATASTROPHIC FAILURE. THERE ARE LIKELY A FAIRLY SIGNIFICANT NUMBER OF CARS STILL ON THE ROAD WITH THIS ISSUE. *TR

VAN STARTED MAKING CLUNKING / GRINDING NOISE WHEN TURNING AND/OR HITTING SMALL BUMPS (BIGGER BUMP BIGGER NOISE). DEALER SAYS 3 OF 4 BODY BUSHINGS CRACKING / WORN. DEALER STATES NOT A COMMON PROBLEM. SAID HAS NEVER SEEN BEFORE YET HAS PARTS IN STOCK TO FIX FOR $850. I DO NOT BELIEVE THAT A VAN THAT IS 6 YEARS OLD WITH 72,000 MILES THAT IS DRIVEN EXCLUSIVELY ON PAVED ROADS SHOULD HAVE BODY BUSHINGS FAILING. I HAVE SEEN NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS ISSUE SPECIFICALLY, AND OTHERS THAT SOUND SIMILAR BUT HAVE GONE UNDIAGNOSED, RELATING TO 2006 / 07 & 08 SEDONA'S. MIGHT THIS BE AN ISSUE COVERED IN A RECALL? *TR

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
I OWN A 2007 KIA SEDONA LX. I HAVE HAD IT SINCE NOV IF 2009. I M REPLACING MY BATTERY EVERY SIX MONTH DUE TO THE FACT THAT THE VEHICLE HAS A DRAW AND HAS HAD SINCE THE DAY I BOUGHT IT.. IT WAS UNDER WARRANTY BY KIA AND I HAVE TAKEN IT THERE COMPLAINING ABOUT THIS PROBLEM. I WAS TOLD THAT WHEN THEY TEST MY CHARGING SYSTEM IT HAS THE NORMAL FACTORY DRAW. I TOOK IT THERE AGAIN AND WAS TOLD IT IS WORKING FINE AND NOT TO RETURN. THEY MADE ME FEEL CRAZY. I HAVE BEEN FIGHTING THIS PROBLEM FOR 4 YEARS. AND HAVE BEEN BUYING BATTERIES EVERY SIX MONTHS. NOW THAT MY VEHICLE IS NO LONGER UNDER WARRANTY, KIA HAS MAGICALLY FOUND A PROBLEM WITH IT. UPON FIXING THE PROBLEM, THE VEHICLE STILL DRAINS THE BATTERY DEAD OVER A PERIOD OF 2 DAYS! I HAVE CALLED KIA HEADQUARTERS IN IRVINE CALIFORNIA. THEY HAVEN?T BEEN HELPFUL WHATSOEVER. I HAVE STOPPED MANY PEOPLE THAT OWN MY YEAR OF VAN AND ASKED IS THEY EXPERIENCE THE SAME PROBLEM. I M SURPRISED TO FIND THAT MANY OF THEM HAVE COMPLAINED ABOUT REPLACING BATTERIES VERY OFTEN! SO THIS IS A FACTORY ISSUE! *TR

VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL
IN SPRING OF 2013, OUR 2007 KIA SEDONA EX CONTINUED TO ACCELERATE AFTER LETTING OFF OF THE PEDAL. THIS OCCURRED ON A HILLY, WINDY ROAD WITH WIFE AND THREE CHILDREN. CAR CONTINUED TO ACCELERATE THROUGH THE BRAKING EFFORTS. CAR WAS STOPPED WITHOUT INCIDENT. DEALER TEST DROVE (COULD NOT REPLICATE THE PROBLEM) AND RAN THROUGH DIAGNOSTICS WITHOUT YIELDING ANY CODES. THEY BASICALLY STATED IT MUST HAVE BEEN THE PEDAL GETTING STUCK ON A FLOOR MAT. IT WAS THE FIRST TIME WE EXPERIENCED IT, SO WE THOUGHT THAT MIGHT BE REASONABLE. HOWEVER, THE SAME PROBLEM HAPPENED AGAIN WITH HUSBAND TWICE WHILE DRIVING THE CAR WITH TWO KIDS UNDER SIMILAR ROAD CONDITIONS. WHEN PUT IN NEUTRAL THE RPMS REACHED 6-7000 AND MAINTAINED IT UNTIL IT FELL DOWN BY ITSELF. THE PROBLEM CONTINUED WHILE ON FAMILY VACATION, THIS TIME ON FLAT ROADS. IT DID NOT MATTER WHETHER I WAS STARTING OUT OF A RED LIGHT, OR SIMPLY ACCELERATING BETWEEN SPEED LIMIT CHANGES. THE PEDAL WAS NOT GETTING STUCK ON THE FLOOR MAT. THIS MUST HAVE HAPPENED 15 OR SO TIMES ON THE 6 HR RIDE HOME FROM VACATION. TOOK IT TO A DIFFERENT DEALER WHEN WE GOT HOME. THEY SEEMED TO TAKE IT MORE SERIOUSLY...GOT THE DISTRICT SERVICE MANAGER INVOLVED AND I EVEN RECEIVED A CASE# AND PHONE CALLS FROM KIA AMERICA, CORPORATE IN CALIFORNIA. I FELT PRETTY GOOD. THEY EVEN PAID FOR MY RENTAL CAR. KIA HAD MY CAR FOR OVER 2 WEEKS AT THE DEALER. THEN I GOT ANOTHER CALL FROM THEM STATING THAT KIA WAS PUTTING PRESSURE ON THEM TO PUT ME BACK IN MY CAR BECAUSE THEY WANTED TO END THE RENTAL CAR CONTRACT. THIS DEALER SAID THE SAME THING AS THE LAST ONE...NO DIAGNOSTIC CODES, COULD NOT REPLICATE THE PROBLEM, AND THEY RAN THROUGH THE CHECKLIST OF ITEMS THAT KIA MAKES THEM GO THROUGH WITH THIS UNINTENDED ACCELERATION ISSUE. I NOW HAVE TO GO TEST DRIVE IT FOR THEM. IF I CANNOT REPLICATE THE ISSUE, THEN I HAVE TO TAKE IT BACK UNFIXED. UGH. DISGUSTED.. *TR

EXTERIOR LIGHTING
WE ARE HAVING ONGOING ISSUES WITH FRONT TURN SIGNAL FAILURES ON OUR SEDONA AND WE HAVE HEARD FROM OTHER SEDONA OWNERS WITH THE SAME PROBLEM. I AT FIRST THOUGHT IT WAS A SIMPLE MATTER OF POOR FACTORY QUALITY LIGHT BULBS (I HAVE HAD TO REPLACE EVERY BULB ON THIS VEHICLE BEFORE IT WAS EVEN TWO YEARS OLD). THE HEADLIGHT ISSUE I WAS HAVING SEEMS TO BE CORRECTED BY MORE EXPENSIVE AND HIGHER QUALITY BULBS. THE FRONT TURN SIGNAL ISSUE IS NOT A BULB ISSUE. AFTER REPLACING FRONT TURN SIGNAL BULBS ON A QUARTERLY BASIS SINCE 2007, I FINALLY SLOWED DOWN TO TAKE A CLOSER LOOK AT THE PROBLEM. THE PROBLEM WITH THE FRONT TURN SIGNALS, IS THE GROUND CONTACT POINT WITHIN THE BULB SOCKET. THE GROUND "TAB" IS THIN AND OVER HEATS. ONCE THE TAB IS HOT, IT STARTS TO LOOSE THE SPRING TENSION REQUIRED TO KEEP THE TAB IN CONTACT WITH THE SIDE OF THE BULB. ONCE CONTACT IS LOST, ARCING STARTS TO FORM PITS AND CORROSION ON THE GROUND TAB AND THE CONTACT POINT. REPLACING GOOD BULBS WILL SOMETIMES MASK THE PROBLEM, BECAUSE WHEN YOU REMOVE THE OLD BULB AND REPLACE IT WITH ANOTHER, YOU WILL UNINTENTIONALLY KNOCK AWAY SOME OF THE CORROSION. IN DOING SO, THE NEW BULB MAY START TO OPERATE FOR A PERIOD OF TIME. IN THE PAST TWO YEARS, I HAVE SIMPLY REMOVED THE BULB, BENT OUT THE TAB A LITTLE, AND USED SCOTCH BRIGHT TO SAND AWAY THE CORROSION. I THEN LUBE THE BULB WITH PROPER GREASE AND REINSTALL. I HAVE MENTIONED THE PROBLEM TO THE SERVICE DEPARTMENTS OF PEAK KIA (WHERE THE VEHICLE WAS PURCHASED) AND ARAPAHOE KIA, BUT I'M BEING TOLD THAT THERE IS NOT AN ISSUE AND THERE ARE NO RECALLS. I ASKED IF THE NEWER MODEL VEHICLES USE ANY TYPE OF UPGRADED OR CHANGED BULB/SOCKET/CONNECTION AND WAS TOLD NOTHING HAS CHANGED BECAUSE THEY ARE NOT HAVING ISSUES WITH TURN SIGNALS. THIS IS A PROBLEM WITH THIS MODEL AND IT IS A SAFETY ISSUE. [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR

LATCHES/LOCKS/LINKAGES, STRUCTURE:BODY:DOOR, ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
THE DRIVERS SIDE AUTOMATIC DOOR DOESN'T OPEN AT ALL NOW WHEN YOU PUSH THE BUTTON INSIDE. IT ACTS LIKE IT IS CATCHING ON SOMETHING SO IT DOESN'T OPEN. IF YOU PULL THE HANDLE, OUTSIDE, IT SOMETIMES WILL FINISH OPENING OR CLOSING BY ITSELF. BUT YOU HAVE TO GIVE IT THAT PULL TO GET IT PAST THE CATCHING POINT. YOU NEVER KNOW IF IT WILL RUN AUTOMATICALLY OR IF YOU HAVE TO MANUALLY PULL THE DOOR OPEN, ITS LIKE IT SHUTS OFF OR ON. IF YOU HAVE TO OPEN IT MANUALLY INSIDE , YOU REALLY HAVE TO PUSH AGAINST THE DOOR HARD TO OPEN IT UP. WHEN YOU PULL IT MANUALLY IT PULLS EASIER, OUTSIDE, THAN IF YOU HAD THE AUTO TURNED OFF. BUT WE DON'T HAVE THE PROBLEM WITH IT POPPING OPEN WHILE DRIVING. JUST POPS OUT OF THE LATCH SOMETIMES WHEN IT DOES AUTO CLOSE AND IT BEEPS AND LETS YOU KNOW THE DOOR ISN'T COMPLETELY CLOSED. JUST STARTED HAVING THE PASSENGER SIDE STARTING TO CATCH A LITTLE BIT NOW, BUT IT DOES COMPLETELY RUN AUTOMATICALLY ONCE YOU GIVE IT A LITTLE HELP. HAVEN'T TAKEN IT IN BECAUSE THE WARRANTY IS DONE AND CANT AFFORD TO PAY POSSIBLY HUNDREDS TO FIX IT. *TR
