SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC
PURCHASED VEHICLE IN 5/2005. RETURNED TO DEALER IN AUGUST AT 3500 MILES, FOR BRAKE NOISE. WAS TOLD THE ROTORS WERE WARPED FROM SITTING ON THE LOT BEFORE THE SALE OF THE VEHICLE. ROTORS WERE TURNED. NOISE STOPPED FOR A MONTH OR SO. DEALER WENT OUT OF BUSINESS, WENT TO ANOTHER DEALER BECAUSE OF LOUD NOISE FROM BRAKES, SOUNDED LIKE A LARGE TRUCK WHEN STOPPING. INITIALLY WAS TOLD THE MECHANIC COULDN'T FIND ANYTHING WRONG, BUT AFTER TEST DRIVING IT, THEY REPLACED PADS. NOISE STOPPED BRIEFLY, BUT THEN THE VEHICLE WAS OVER THE 12K WARRANTY FOR THE BRAKES. I'VE HAD THE CAR AT MY MECHANICS SHOP TWICE. HE SAID THE REAR BRAKES ARE VERY LARGE FOR THIS CAR, AND FRONT BRAKES ARE TINY WITH CHEAP SHOES. BRAKES MAKE NOISE ALL THE TIME, AND THE CAR SHUTTERS WHEN STOPPING AT HIGH SPEEDS OR GOING DOWNHILL. PROBLEM STILL NOT RESOLVED. *JB

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM:IGNITION:SWITCH
2005 KIA SEDONA, WHEN I FIRST PURCHASED VEHICLE, ONLY ABOUT 3 WEEKS OLD, I WENT OUTSIDE TO START IT AND SMOKE CAME POURING OUT OF STEERING WHEEL AREA, SO MUCH SO THAT I WAS IN THE PROCESS OF CALLING 911 AFTER GETTING MY YOUNG CHILD OUT OF HER CAR SEAT AND OUT OF VAN, THE SMOKE WAS SIGNIFICANT AND JUST STOPPED AS QUICKLY AS IT STARTED, I TOOK THE VAN IN AND THEY ACTED LIKE I WAS CRAZY AND SAID THERE WAS NOTHING WRONG, THEN LAST WEEK WITH ONLY 30,000 MILES ON THE VAN, I PULLED INTO THE STORE PARKING SPACE AND CAME OUT AND THE STEERING COLUMN AND WHEELS AND IGNITION WERE COMPLETELY LOCKED AND FROZEN, THE VAN HAD TO BE TOWED IN TO THE DEALERSHIP BECAUSE NO ONE COULD GET THE STEERING COLUMN OR IGNITION TO UNLOCK, THEY TOLD US IT WAS A CABLE THAT WAS OUT OF ADJUSTMENT, I HAVE NEVER HEARD OF A CABLE BEING ABLE TO RENDER A CAR COMPLETELY INOPERABLE AT 30,000 MILES, WHAT IS IT WENT OUT OF ADJUSTMENT WHILE I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE FREEWAY!!!! I STRONGLY FEEL THERE IS SOMETHING FUNDAMENTALLY WRONG WITH THE STEERING COLUMN AND CONNECTED SYSTEMS IN THE STEERING COLUMN AND THEY ARE NOT TELLING US THE TRUTH WHEN WE TAKE IT IN FOR REPAIR. *NM

SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC:FOUNDATION COMPONENTS:HOSES, LINES/PIPING, AND FITTINGS, ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
JULY 2006 I NOTICED A SMELL OF BURNING BRAKES OR SOMETHING SIMILAR. BUT AFTER I TURNED THE VEHICLE OFF FOR AN HOUR THE SMELL DISAPPEARED. THEN ON JULY 4TH 2006 WE WERE 10 MILES FROM HOME AND NOTICED THE RADIO TURNED OFF, THEN A FEW MORE MILES THE GAUGES ALL TURNED OFF, THEN BY THE TIME WE GOT OFF THE FREEWAY, THE CAR TURNED OFF. WE THEN TURNED IT BACK ON, THE RADIO AND GAUGES ALL WORKED UNTIL WE DROVE TO THE DEALER WHICH WAS CLOSED SO WE DROVE ONE MORE MILE TO A SAFE PLACE TO PARK. AT THIS TIME THE CAR WAS COMPLETELY DEAD. WE LOOKED IN THE ENGINE, THE FUSE BOX WAS SMOKING AND WHEN OPENED, ALL THE FUSES WERE MELTED DOWN AND ALL THE WIRES WERE MELTED TOO. WE THEN GOT IT TOWED TO THE DEALER THE NEXT DAY 7/5/06. THE CAR HAS NOW BEEN AT THE DEALER FOR OVER A WEEK AND HALF, AND WILL NOT BE READY UNTIL NEXT WEEK. I AM HOPING THE NEW WIRING THEY PUT IN DOESN'T BURN AGAIN. THIS IS THE SECOND MAJOR TROUBLE WITH THIS NEW CAR UNDER 9000 MILES. THE FIRST TROUBLE WAS ONE WEEK AFTER BUYING THE NEW CAR WITH 3 MILES ON IT. DROVE INTO MY DRIVEWAY AT HOME ON A STEEP HILL TO FIND I HAD NO BRAKES. THE TROUBLE WAS A KINKED BRAKE LINE THAT BROKE ... VERY SCARY. *JB

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC, SUSPENSION:FRONT, TIRES, EQUIPMENT:ELECTRICAL:RADIO/TAPE DECK/CD ETC.
THE DAY I PURCHASED MY 2005 KIA SEDONA THE RADIO STOPPED WORKING. THAT WAS REPLACED, THEN THE LIGHTER WENT. AGAIN THE RADIO AND THEN WITHIN THE FIRST THREE WEEKS THE BRAKES AND FRONT END WHICH HAS BEEN THE ONGOING PROBLEMS AND CONCERN TO DATE. WITH NUMEROUS TRIPS UP UNTIL 9/05 AND MY TAKING IT TO YET ANOTHER DEALER 9/05-1/06 LEADING TO IT BLOWING OUT A TIRE AND NOW THEM TELLING ME ALL ALONG OF COURSE THAT NOTHING IS OUTSIDE OF "NORMAL" OR THEIR FAULT ETC. HOWEVER BUYING THIS VEHICLE NEW AND IT SOUNDING AND LIKE SOMETHING I'VE NEVER HEARD BEFORE (AND I'VE DRIVEN FOR 20 YEARS MANY TYPES OF CARS NEW AND VERY OLD!) LET ALONE THE WAY IT SHAKES.. YET THEY ALWAYS LED ME TO BELIEVE I WAS NUTS. THEY DID REPLACED THE ROTORS FINALLY ONLY AFTER I TOOK IT TO SOMEONE ELSE WHO DOCUMENTED IT NEEDED IT AND I TOOK IT BACK WITH THE PAPER WORK AND THAT WASN'T UNTIL AUGUST (I BOUGHT IT IN MAY) AND THEY'D BLOWN ME OFF FOR TWO MONTHS. I'VE CALLED KIA MAIN OFFICE WHO ALSO IS MAKING IT NOT THEIR PROBLEM IT'S A "NORMAL" WEAR ISSUE. THERE IS NO CAR THAT SOUNDS AND FEELS LIKE THIS UPON BRAKING. READING YOUR SITE AT LEAST I KNOW I'M NOT ALONE FINALLY WHICH IS WHAT *THEY* WANT YOU TO THINK! *NM

ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING:ENGINE
DT*: THE CONTACT STATED ENGINE LIGHT ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO DEALERS WHERE THEY DETERMINED THE CYLINOID VALVE WAS STUCK IN THE CLOSED POSITION. THE CYLINOID WAS REPAIRED AND THE NEXT DAY THE ENGINE LIGHT ILLUMINATED AGAIN. WHEN THE DEALERS ALERT, THEY ADVISED THE VEHICLE TO BE TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT AUTO SHOP. THE INDEPENDENT AUTO SHOP ALSO DIAGNOSED THE PROBLEM AS THE CYLINOID VALVE WAS BEING STUCK IN THE CLOSED POSITION. WHEN THE CONTACT RETURNED TO DEALERS, THE DEALERS YELLED DIRECTING THE CONTACT TO GET OFF OF THE PROPERTY. NO FURTHER SERVICE WAS PROVIDED TO VEHICLE.

SEATS:FRONT ASSEMBLY:RECLINER
I AM WRITING TO ALERT YOU TO A DANGEROUS PROBLEM WITH THE SPRINGS RESPONSIBLE FOR THE RECLINING MECHANISM OF THE SEATS IN THE 2005 SEDONA. WE HAVE AN LX MODEL WITH THE CAPTAINS CHAIRS. I HAD NOTED PREVIOUSLY THAT THE SEATS WOULD SPRING FORWARD QUITE RAPIDLY WHEN THERE WAS NOT A PERSON IN THE SEAT AND THE HANDLE IS PULLED. THE SEAT BACKS ARE QUITE HEAVY AND FLING FORWARD WITH SOME FORCE. THIS FORCE WAS READILY APPARENT THIS PAST THURSDAY (5/11/06). OUR SIX-YEAR OLD DAUGHTER WAS SITTING IN THE CHAIR IN A RECLINED POSITION. SHE STOOD UP AND FACED THE SEAT IN ORDER TO RAISE THE SEAT TO THE UPRIGHT POSITION. WHEN SHE PULLED THE HANDLE, THE SEAT FLUNG FORWARD AND HIT HER IN THE HEAD. SHE SUSTAINED A CUT TO HER RIGHT FOREHEAD THAT REQUIRED A VISIT TO THE EMERGENCY ROOM AND THREE STITCHES. SHE ALSO SUSTAINED A BRUISE TO HER UPPER EYELID. LUCKILY, THE SEAT DID NOT HIT HER EYE DIRECTLY. *NM

WHEELS:HUB
I BOUGHT MY 2005 KIA SEDONA IN SEPTEMBER 2005. IN THE MONTH OF APRIL I NOTICED MY HUB CAPS WERE PEELING. WHEN I CONTACTED MY KIA DEALER HE INFORMED ME THAT IT WAS NOT A DEFECT BUT INSTEAD THEY WHEELS MUST HAVE BEEN CLEANED WITH AN ACID BASE CLEANER. I TOLD HIM I HAD ALREADY CONTACTED MY CAR DETAILER AND THEY SAID THEY DO NOT USE ANY CLEANER LIKE THAT BECAUSE THEY ARE WELL AWARE OF THE FACT THIS CAN HAPPEN. WHEN I RELAYED THIS TO THE SERVICE MANGER AT THE DEALERSHIP HE SAID THEY MUST BE WRONG. BUT IN ANY CASE HE WOULD REPLACE ONLY THE ONES THAT WERE PEELING AND WOULD ONLY DO IT THIS ONE TIME. FROM NOW ON I WOULD HAVE TO PURCHASE THEM. HE ALSO SAID HE HAD OTHER CUSTOMERS WITH THE SAME PROBLEM AND HE ONLY REPLACED THEIRS ONCE AND SOME HAVE PAID TO HAVE THEM REPLACED UP TO FOUR TIMES IN THE PAST YEAR. BUT AGAIN HE SAID IT'S NOT KIA'S PROBLEM. I THINK HE NEEDS TO RETHINK THIS AND KIA DOES TO. THEY USE CHEAP PLASTIC HUB CAPS AND NEED TO DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT. *NM

EQUIPMENT:OTHER:LABELS, SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC:FOUNDATION COMPONENTS:DISC:ROTOR
BRAND NEW VAN FROM THE START BRAKES WOULD SHAKE REALLY BAD. CALLED THEM, THEY OF COURSE TRIED TO BLAME ON SOMETHING ELSE, NOT WARRANTY, SO I TOOK IT TO MY MECHANIC I HAVE USED FOR 20 YEARS, THEY SAID TAKE IT BACK, GET NEW BRAKES AND ROTORS. TALKED THEM INTO IT WITH A LOT OF DOING. NOT LONG AFTER THAT I WAS GOING DOWN A HILL AND WHEN APPLIED BRAKES VAN SOUNDED LIKE A TRAIN STOPPING, I EVEN HAD THE GIRL FROM KIA SERVICE DEPT. ON THE PHONE WHEN IT HAPPENED THE SECOND TIME AND SHE HEARD IT THROUGH THE CELL PHONE, WELL, OF COURSE THEY COULDN'T FIND ANYTHING AND WOULDN'T DO ANYTHING. IT DOESN'T DO IT ALL THE TIME, MAYBE 3-4 TIMES A MONTH. BUT IT HAS STARTED SHAKING AGAIN, AND STILL SOUNDS LIKE A TRAIN. WHAT TO DO, WHAT TO DO! *NM
