STEERING, ENGINE
I WAS DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY WHEN EXITING THE VEHICLE SHUT OFF. I TOOK IT TO THE MECHANIC AND EXPLAINED WHAT HAPPEN. THEY SAID THEY CHECKED IT AND NOTHING WAS WRONG IT WAS JUST THE AIR COMPRESSION "WHICH THEY FIXED" BUT AS SOON AS I WENT TO THE MALL THE STICK SHIFT JAMMED AND I COULDN'T TURN OFF THE CAR. AN OFFICER HELPED ME AND SAID TAKE IT BACK TO THE MECHANIC. WHEN I BROUGHT IT BACK HE SAID IT MOVES FINE THERE'S NOTHING WRONG. MY CAR HAS BEEN PARKED EVER SINCE THIS INCIDENT. IM AFRAID IT WILL SHUT OFF AND WE MIGHT CRASH. PLEASE HELP ME THANK YOU. *TR

SERVICE BRAKES, ENGINE
OUR ENGINE BLEW UP- SPECIFICALLY, THE CRANKSHAFT BROKE THROUGH THE 3RD CYLINDER. VEHICLE WAS SERVICED BY OUR KIA DEALERSHIP IN THE MIDDLE OF MARCH - OIL/FILTER CHANGE AND INSPECTION. THE NEXT WEEK WE LEFT ON VACATION TO FLORIDA FOR A CRUISE. VEHICLE WAS STORED AT A LONG TERM STORAGE FACILITY FOR THE WEEK. ABOUT 10 HOURS INTO OUR RETURN ROAD TRIP, WE CHECKED THE OIL LEVEL. CAR WAS ALMOST 2 QUARTS LOW. WE ADDED AN ADDITIONAL QUART. THERE IS NO INDICATION ON THE DASH THAT ANYTHING IS WRONG WITH THE ENGINE OR THE OIL. WE CONTINUED ON OUR WAY. ANOTHER 5 HOURS INTO OUR TRIP, WE ARE DRIVING ALONG WITH THE CRUISE CONTROL SET. THE ENGINE STARTS MAKING LOUD KNOCKING NOISES, I AM UNABLE TO DISENGAGE THE CRUISE CONTROL EVEN THOUGH I AM FRANTICALLY PRESSING THE BRAKE. THE ENGINE IS REVVING LOUDER AND LOUDER UNTIL WE HEAR A LOUD BANG AND THE ENTIRE CAR LOOSES POWER. WE ARE PAST OUR 100,000 MILE WARRANTY WITH KIA. HOWEVER, THERE ARE TWO FACTORS AT PLAY HERE THAT CAN BE CONTRIBUTED TO THE CAR DAMAGE: 1.) THE OIL WAS LOW AFTER ONLY 2-3 WEEKS AFTER AN OIL/FILTER CHANGE. I BELIEVE THE SERVICE TECHNICIAN MAY HAVE SOME CULPABILITY HERE BY NOT ADDING ENOUGH OIL OR NOT TIGHTENING A CAP, ETC. IT DOESN'T MAKE SENSE THAT THE OIL WAS LOW. 2.) I RECENTLY FOUND OUT THAT THERE WAS A RECALL ON THE BRAKE LIGHT FOR OUR 2007 KIA RONDO. THAT IT MAY CAUSE AN INABILITY TO DISENGAGE THE CRUISE CONTROL. IN ADDITION TO MY HUSBAND, WE HAD ANOTHER COUPLE IN THE CAR WITH US WHO CAN ATTEST TO MY FRANTIC ACTIONS TO DISENGAGE THE CRUISE CONTROL. MY ONLINE RESEARCH HAS SHOWN THAT KIA HAD A MAJOR PROBLEM WITH BLOWN MOTORS. THEY NO LONGER MAKE THE ENGINE FOR OUR VEHICLE. TO FIX THIS VEHICLE, IT WOULD HAVE TO BE RETROFITTED WITH A CURRENT MOTOR. THIS IS VERY EXPENSIVE. OBVIOUSLY THERE IS A REASON WHY THOSE MOTORS AREN'T IN PRODUCTION ANYMORE. WHY HAVEN'T THEY RECALLED THESE ENGINES? *TR

ENGINE, SERVICE BRAKES, ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL (ESC)
I WAS DRIVING MY 2007 KIA RONDO AT HIGHWAY SPEED WITH THE CRUISE CONTROL ON WHEN THE ENGINE SPEED REVVED UP DRAMATICALLY-AS IF THE TRANSMISSION HAD DISENGAGED. STEPPED ON THE BRAKES, CRUISE DISENGAGED AND ENGINE SLOWED. AROUND THE SAME TIME, NOTICED THE ABS AND ESC OFF LIGHTS WOULD COME ON INTERMITTENTLY, STAY ON, THEN NOT COME ON. AT SLOW SPEED TURNS AFTER THE CAR SET FOR A WHILE, THE ABS WOULD ENGAGE ON DRY PAVEMENT (WITHOUT LIGHT) AND CAR DID NOT SLOW NORMALLY. WENT TO DEALER, WHO SAID THE ISSUE WAS A BRAKE LIGHT SWITCH, WHICH WAS REPLACED AND VEHICLE TAKEN FOR A TEST DRIVE. WHEN I PICKED THE CAR UP, BOTH THE ABS AND ESC OFF LIGHTS WERE OFF, BUT CAME ON WITHIN MINUTES OF LEAVING THE LOT. LATER THAT NIGHT, ABS STARTED ACTING UP AGAIN-ONCE WITHOUT EVEN STEPPING ON THE BRAKE PEDAL. TAKING THE CAR BACK TO DEALER TOMORROW TO SEE WHAT IS GOING ON. ONLY LEARNED OF STOP LIGHT SWITCH RECALL BY WEB SEARCH. *TR

EXTERIOR LIGHTING:BRAKE LIGHTS:SWITCH
I LIKE MY KIA RONDO. I HAVE HAD RESPECT FOR KIA AND HAVE RECOMMENDED KIA. NO LONGER DO I HAVE RESPECT FOR KIA. THEY HAVE LOST A CUSTOMER. KIA DID A RECALL BACK IN 2009. I HAD THE RECALL DONE ON MY CAR. NOW I AM HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM AGAIN. KIA WILL NOT FIX THE SWITCH I NEED REPLACED. THEY TOLD ME THEY DID IT ONCE AND THEY ARE DONE. IF I DON'T HAVE AN EXTENDED WARRANTY, I HAVE TO PAY FOR IT OUT OF MY POCKET. SO WRONG. THEY GAVE ME 2 BAD PARTS AND NOW THEY DON'T CARE. ANOTHER CAR MAKER THAT I WILL NOT BUY FROM. IF THE FIRST TIME IT'S A SAFETY ISSUE THAT QUOTE ?THE MALFUNCTION OF THE STOP LAMP SWITCH MAY PUT YOU AT RISK OF A CRASH.?, WHY ISN'T IT A SAFETY ISSUE THE SECOND TIME OR WHEN THE PROBLEM PERSISTS? *TR

STRUCTURE, FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM, SEAT BELTS
I'VE HAD MY VEHICLE SINCE 11/2008. IT WAS PURCHASED USED FROM A KIA DEALER. ALTHOUGH I KNEW IT WAS A USED 2007, IT WAS NOT REVEALED UNTIL 02/2012 THAT THERE WAS MORE THAN 1 PREVIOUS OWNER AND THAT THE BACK BUMPER WAS NOT THE ORIGINAL. OVERALL THE VEHICLE HAS DRIVEN WELL, BUT HAS 2 VERY SPECIFIC QUIRKS THAT TRULY NEED TO BE ADDRESSED BY THE MANUFACTURER. I TOOK THE CAR IN TO THE DEALER REGARDING THE 1ST PROBLEM, WHICH I SEE SOMEONE ELSE ON THIS SITE REPORTED THE SAME COMPLAINT; HOWEVER, THEY TOLD ME THAT IF IT HAPPENS AGAIN TO BRING IT BACK. IT HAS BEEN SOMETHING THAT I'VE PRETTY MUCH DEALT WITH OVER THE LAST 4 YEARS, WHICH IS THAT SPORADIC/RANDOM STARTING/IGNITION OR GAS/FUEL SYSTEM ISSUE IN WHICH I HAVE TO START AND TURN OFF THE CAR SEVERAL TIMES BEFORE IT WILL "REV" UP AND ACTUALLY GO/MOVE. AS ANOTHER REPORT STATED, THE DRIVER HAD TO "DRIFT" HOME (OR TO A SAFE PLACE TO START BACK UP AGAIN). THERE HAVE BEEN OCCASIONS WHERE I THOUGHT IT WAS GOOD-TO-GO, BUT RANDOMLY LOST ITS WIND AND I WOULD HAVE TO GO THROUGH THE START/STOP ROUTINE AT LEAST 6 MORE TIMES TO GET MOVING. MY 2ND ISSUE IS ONE OF THE SEAT BELTS IN BACK DOES NOT ALWAYS LATCH. IF YOU PULL REAL HARD, IT'LL COME UNDONE, WHICH IS REALLY SCARY ESPECIALLY W/ CHILDREN. LIKE I SAID, THIS HAS HAPPENED MANY TIMES SINCE I FIRST GOT THE CAR BACK IN 2008 AND THE MILEAGE WAS MUCH LOWER THEN. THE MILEAGE I REPORTED HERE WAS NOTATED ON ITS LAST OIL CHANGE. *TR

SERVICE BRAKES, ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL (ESC), AIR BAGS:FRONTAL
I HAVE A 2007 KIA RONDO WITH A DEFECTIVE STOP LAMP SWITCH WHICH CAUSES THE ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL MALFUNCTION LIGHT TO ILLUMINATE AND THE BRAKE PEDAL DOES NOT CONSISTENTLY DEACTIVATE CRUISE CONTROL WHEN IT IS DEPRESSED. THERE WAS A SAFETY RECALL DONE ON THIS PART, HOWEVER MY VEHICLE WAS MANUFACTURED LESS THAN ONE MONTH AFTER DATE RANGE OF THE RECALLED VEHICLES AND THE KIA DEALERSHIP SAYS MY VIN WASN'T AFFECTED. I BELIEVE THAT TO BE INCORRECT AND THAT I HAVE A DEFECTIVE STOP LAMP SWITCH THAT SHOULD BE INCLUDED IN THIS RECALL. RECALL CAMPAIGN ID#12V014000. *TR

ENGINE
THE ENGINE IS FAULTY IF THEY DEMAND THAT ONLY OEM OIL FILTERS CAN BE USED OTHERWISE ENGINE WILL BREAK AND WARRANTY WILL NOT COVER IT. MY STORY: MY 2007 KIA RONDO: SO MY CHECK ENGINE LIGHT GOES ON THE OTHER DAY. I TAKE IT MY KIA DEALER AND THEY SAY IT'S CODE 90011 - CAMSHAFT POSITIONING SENSOR ERROR. THEY TELL ME THAT THERE IS A "KIA BULLETIN" OUT ABOUT NON-OEM OIL FILTERS CAUSING THIS ERROR AND THAT I SHOULD ONLY BE USING OEM FILTERS. SO, THEY CHANGE MY OIL AND PUT ON THE NEW OEM FILTER. THEY THEN TELL ME THAT SHOULD FIX THE PROBLEM, BUT IF LIGHT COMES BACK ON TO BRING IT BACK IN. I LEFT EXCITED THE LIGHT WAS OFF, AND THEN I AM NOT KIDDING - 1.3 MILES LATER ON THE FREEWAY HOME, ALL HELL BREAKS LOOSE IN MY ENGINE! IT THREW A ROD AND OIL SPEWED OUT EVERYWHERE. SO, TOWED IT BACK. THEY TELL ME HOW SORRY THEY ARE. I TELL THEM I STILL HAVE 5K MILES LEFT IN WARRANTY. THEY TELL ME I NEED TO SHOW PROOF OF ALL OIL CHANGES AND BRING THEM THE RECEIPTS. I CAN ONLY TRACK DOWN 9 OIL CHANGES FOR THE LAST 5 YEARS. I METHODICALLY CHANGED THE OIL EVERY 4K MILES, MANY OF THEM I DID MYSELF. DID I THINK TO SAVE THE WALMART RECEIPTS FOR OIL AND FILTERS? NOPER. LONG STORY SHORT, THEY DENIED MY CLAIM FOR THE FOLLOWING REASONS: 1. THERE IS A "KIA BULLETIN" THAT CAME OUT RECENTLY THAT SAYS I SHOULD HAVE ONLY BEEN USING OEM KIA FILTERS AND I DID NOT. 2. I COULD NOT PRODUCE ENOUGH RECEIPTS TO PROVE THAT BETWEEN SELF OIL CHANGES AND OTHERWISE WERE DONE EVERY 3K MILES. EVEN IF I DID GET THE RECEIPTS, THEY DON'T SELL KIA OEM FILTERS AT WALMART OR AUTOZONE, BIG O, ETC. SO I AM LEFT WITH $7K STILL OWING ON A CAR THAT NEEDS A $5200 ENGINE. GOD BLESS SOUTH KOREA! P.S.S. WHEN THE DEALER FIRST CHANGE MY OIL, THEY SAID THE OIL WAS REALLY QUITE CLEAN AND COULD TELL I TAKE CARE OF THE ENGINE!! *TR

VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL, STEERING
ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS IN THE PAST MONTH WHILE DRIVING, MY KIA RONDO STOPS RESPONDING AS I ATTEMPT TO ACCELERATE. IT HAS CAUSED ME TO BLOCK TRAFFIC AND COULD CAUSE A SERIOUS ACCIDENT. I TOOK IT TO A LOCAL REPAIR SHOP AND THEY WERE UNABLE TO DIAGNOSE THE PROBLEM. AT THIS POINT I AM AFRAID TO DRIVE THE CAR AS I AM AFRAID OF CAUSING AN ACCIDENT. THERE IS ANOTHER PROBLEM WHICH HAS BEEN OCCURRING FOR SEVERAL MONTHS- DRIVING THROUGH A PUDDLE OR ANY STANDING WATER CAUSES TH CAR TO SCREECH AND MAKE A LOUD GRINDING NOISE AND CAUSES A TOTAL LOSS OF STEERING. THIS HAPPENS EVERY TIME THE ROADS ARE WET. IT IS SO UNSAFE THAT I NEVER DRIVE IN LESS THAN DRY ROAD CONDITIONS. *TR

STEERING, SERVICE BRAKES
ON 5-9-2012, IT WAS RAINING HEAVILY. MY RONDO, WHICH DROVE FINE THE DAY BEFORE AND THE DAY AFTER, STARTED MAKING A LOUD SCREECHING NOISE AND THE STEERING BECAME VERY "TIGHT" FEELING. I PULLED OFF ROAD INTO A PARKING LOT, AND WHEN I DID EXPERIENCED TOTAL LOSS OF STEERING CONTROL. I CAME VERY CLOSE TO CRASHING INTO THE PARKED CAR BESIDE ME AS A RESULT. I WAITED A FEW MINUTES, RESTARTED THE CAR. PULLING OUT OF THE PARKING SPACE, MY VEHICLE BRAKES ENGAGED SUDDENLY WITHOUT NOTICE, AND MY SON AND I WERE GRABBED BY OUR SEAT BELTS AS OUR BODIES WERE THROWN FORWARD SO HARD. I WAS BLOCKING TRAFFIC SO I RESTARTED THE CAR, AND IT DROVE OK ON A STRAIGHT ROAD, BUT WHEN I TURNED, AGAIN LOST STEERING. WHEN I SAY LOSS OF POWER STEERING, I MEAN WITH ALL MY MIGHT I COULDN'T GET THE CAR TO GO WHERE I WANTED. THE RAIN STOPPED AND I HAD NO FURTHER PROBLEMS UNTIL YESTERDAY, 6-13-12, WHEN IT HAD BEEN RAINING AGAIN. THIS TIME, PULLING ONTO A BUSY ROAD, MOVING QUICKLY DUE TO THE APPROACHING TRAFFIC, AND AGAIN LOST ALL ABILITY TO STEER. FORTUNATELY I WAS ABLE TO SLAM ON MY BRAKES AND GO IN REVERSE TO GET OUT OF THE PATH OF ONCOMING TRAFFIC, BUT HAD THE CIRCUMSTANCES BEEN DIFFERENT, MY YOUNG CHILDREN AND I COULD HAVE SUFFERED A CATASTROPHE. NHTSA HAD TWO SIMILAR REPORTS WITH THE 2007 RONDO: INTERNAL SEQUENCE NUMBER #736XXX DATED 8-23-09 AND #749XXX DATED 12/2/2009. I HOPE NHTSA AND/OR KIA ADDRESSES THIS PROBLEM BEFORE SOMEONE IS INJURED OR KILLED.
