ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
2014 KIA SORENTO LIMITED SAFETY ISSUE: THE ELECTROLUMINESCENT SPEEDOMETER ISN'T READABLE DURING DAYLIGHT OPERATION. THIS CAUSES A VERY REAL SAFETY SITUATION WHEN THE DRIVER HAS TO TAKE HIS EYES OFF THE ROAD FOR 3 OR 4 SECONDS TO FIGURE OUT HOW FAST HE IS GOING. THE DISPLAY IS ENTIRELY PROGRAMMABLE BY KIA. THEY HAVE CHOSEN TO SHOW THE SPEED BY A SMALL DARK RED MARKER AGAINST A BLACK BACKGROUND. DURING DAYLIGHT DRIVING YOU HAVE TO HUNT FOR THE MARKER. PUT ON SUN GLASSES AND IT CAN TAKE 5 OR 6 SECONDS TO FIND THE MARKER. ALL THAT TIME YOU ARE NOT LOOKING AT THE ROAD. SIMPLE PROGRAM CHANGES AND SOFTWARE UPDATES COULD EASILY SOLVE THIS PROBLEM. - MAKE THE MARKER LONGER AND/OR BIGGER, MAKE THE MARKER LIGHTER RED, MAKE THE MARKER WHITE, OR SHOW THE SPEED NUMERICALLY IN THE CENTER OF THE SPEEDOMETER. ALL THESE COULD BE DRIVER SELECTABLE FROM THE EXISTING "SETTINGS" MENU. KIA HAS BEEN MADE AWARE OF THIS PROBLEM SINCE AT LEAST JUNE 10, 2013 (CASE # [XXX] ? CUSTOMER SERVICE REPRESENTATIVES [XXX]). THEY ARE LIABLE FOR ACCIDENTS CAUSED BY THIS FAULTY PRODUCT. THE LOCAL KIA SERVICE PEOPLE RECOGNIZE THE PROBLEM BUT ONLY CORPORATE KIA CAN FIX IT. OTHER THAN THIS SAFETY ISSUE MY $39,050 2014 SORENTO LIMITED IS PERFECTLY ASSEMBLED AND EXCELLENTLY DESIGNED. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6).*TR

SUSPENSION
THE DRIVER SIDE CONTROL ARM BROKE IN HALF AS THE VEHICLE WAS SLOWING TO A STOP (10-20 MPH) AT A TRAFFIC LIGHT. VEHICLE COULD NOT BE DRIVEN AFTER THE INCIDENT. AFTER INSPECTION, IT WAS DETERMINED THAT THE CONTROL ARM HAD RUSTED THROUGH AND FAILED. ALL REMAINING CONTROL ARMS WERE INSPECTED. IT WAS FOUND THAT THE PASSENGER SIDE FRONT CONTROL ARM WAS ALSO IN NEED OF REPAIR BEFORE AN EVENTUAL FAILURE WOULD OCCUR. *TR UPDATED 10/22/13*LJ UPDATED 10/25/2013 *JS

SUSPENSION
THE LEFT FRONT COIL SPRING BROKE AFTER I HAD PARKED THE VAN AT WORK. LATER WHEN I WENT OUT TO GO SOMEWHERE, I FOUND A PIECE OF METAL ABOUT 8" LONG LYING ON THE GROUND BEHIND THE LEFT FRONT TIRE. I THOUGHT THAT I SURE HOPED IT HAD NOT COME OFF OF MY CAR! WHEN I GOT IN AND PUT THE CAR IN REVERSE, IT WOULD NOT MOVE. I SHIFTED TO DRIVE AND IT WENT FORWARD, SO I SHIFTED BACK INTO REVERSE AND TRIED TO BACK UP. THERE WAS A LOUD BANG AND THE FRONT END ON THE CAR DROPPED HARD TO THE LEFT. WHEN I GOT OUT OF THE CAR, THE TIRE WAS COMPLETELY FLAT AND I COULD ACTUALLY SEE A FLAP STICKING UP FROM THE INSIDE WALL OF THE TIRE. I LATER DISCOVERED THAT THE COIL SPRING HAD BROKEN - THAT WAS THE PIECE OF METAL I HAD FOUND ON THE GROUND - AND HAD STABBED THE TIRE. IT WAS CORRODED. AFTER CHECKING ONLINE I LEARNED THAT THERE HAD BEEN AN ISSUE WITH THE FRONT COIL SPRINGS ON 2006 KIA SEDONAS, THAT THE FINISH WOULD GET CORRODED BY ROAD SALT AND WATER AND THE SPRINGS WOULD BREAK. A RECALL HAD BEEN ISSUED IN 21 STATES, INCLUDING MICHIGAN. WHEN I CONTACTED THE DEALER, I WAS TOLD THAT THE RECALL COVERED VEHICLES MADE FROM DECEMBER 2005 TO MARCH 20, 2012. MY VAN WAS MADE ON APRIL 18, 2012, AND THEREFORE WAS NOT COVERED BY THE RECALL BECAUSE THE 'ISSUE HAD BEEN RESOLVED.' WHY THEN DID THE SPRING BREAK? *TR

EQUIPMENT:MECHANICAL:ACCESSORY SCISSOR/SCREW/BOTTLE JACK/LIFT
WE HAD A FLAT TIRE ON OUR 2012 KIA SEDONA. WHEN MY HUSBAND PUT THE VEHICLE ON THE JACK TO CHANGE THE TIRE, THE JACK CRUMPLED LIKE AN EMPTY SODA CAN. THIS WAS THE FIRST AND ONLY TIME THAT THIS FACTORY PROVIDED JACK HAD EVER BEEN USED. IF MY HUSBAND HAD BEEN UNDER THE VEHICLE RETRIEVING THE DONUT, HE COULD HAVE BEEN SERIOUSLY HURT, OR WORSE. WE WENT TO THE KIA SUSSMAN DEALERSHIP IN JENKINTOWN PA AND THEY REFUSED TO REPLACE THE JACK FOR ONE THAT WAS SAFE, SAID THAT THESE PIECES WERE NOT PART OF THE WARRANTY AND TO LEAVE AND TAKE THE JACK WITH US. I AM VERY CONCERNED THAT ONE OF THESE DEFECTIVE JACKS WILL CRUMPLE ON SOMEONE ELSE WHILE THEY ARE UNDER THEIR VEHICLE AND BE HURT OR KILLED. *TR

UNKNOWN OR OTHER
THE PASSENGER SLIDING DOORS ON MY 2009 KIA SEDONA IS VERY HARD TO OPEN, SOMETIMES, THE RIGHT DOOR CAN NOT BE OPENED AT ALL. THERE WAS A DOOR LATCH RECALL IN 2011, I HAD THE LATCHES ATTENDED TO, AFTERWARDS, THE DOORS WORKED FOR A WHILE AND THEN THEY STOPPED AND HAVENT WORKED SINCE. ALSO, THE AUTOMATIC FEATURE ONLY WORKED FOR 9 MONTHS AFTER PURCHASING THE VEHICLE. THIS IS A REAL SAFETY HAZARD DUE TO THE DOOR NOT ALLOWING YOU TO ENTER OR EXIT IF A PROBLEM OCCURS. TO OPEN THE DOOR, YOU LITERALLY HAVE TO STICK YOUR FINGERS IN THE CREASE OUTSIDE OF THE DOOR, PULL ON THE HANDLE WHILE TUGGING ON THE DOOR EXTREMELY HARD. I BELIEVE THIS IS DANGEROUS AND A HUGE SAFETY ISSUE. THE DEALER TOLD ME IT WAS NOTHING THEY COULD DO OR IT WOULD BE VERY EXPENSIVE TO CHECK THE PROBLEM OUT.

ENGINE
WHILE TURNING ONTO ANOTHER STREET THE VAN STALLED. I PUT ON MY FLASHERS AND STOPPED, PUT THE VAN IN PARK AND STARTED IT AGAIN. IT STARTED RIGHT UP AND THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WAS ON. IT DIDN'T HAVE ANY POWER WHEN I HIT THE GAS, SO I TURNED IT OFF AND STARTED IT AGAIN AND IT RAN NORMAL, EXCEPT FOR THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT BEING ON. ON THE WAY HOME IT ALMOST STALLED AGAIN. THIS HAPPENED ON A SATURDAY. WE CALLED THE DEALER RIGHT AWAY AND THEY SAID TO BRING IT IN ON MONDAY. A WEEK OR SO BEFORE THE VAN DID THIS I NOTICED THE RPM'S GOING UP AN DOWN WHEN I WOULD BE AT A STOP JUST IDLING. THE DEALER CHECKED THE CODES FOR THE THROTTLE BODY AND FOUND AN UPDATE SO THEY REPROGRAMMED IT ACCORDING TO THEIR PAPERWORK. ON FRIDAY I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE STREET GOING ABOUT 25 MPH AND WHEN I GOT TO THE TRAFFIC LIGHT I LOST POWER. I THOUGHT IT HAD STALLED AGAIN, BUT IT DIDN'T. WHEN I PRESSED THE GAS IT DID NOT ACCELERATE , AND WOULD NOT GO OVER 10 MPH. I GOT IT OFF THE STREET AND SHUT IT OFF AND THEN RESTARTED IT. IT WOULD NOT RESPOND WHEN I STEPPED ON THE GAS. I TURNED IT OFF AGAIN AND LET IT SIT FOR A COUPLE MINUTES AND THEN WHEN I RE-STARTED IT, IT RESPONDED WHEN I ACCELERATED. ONCE AGAIN THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WAS ON. I IMMEDIATELY CONTACTED THE DEALER AND DROVE IT RIGHT TO THEM. ACCORDING TO THEIR PAPERWORK THEY CHECKED AND FOUND AN INTERNAL FAULT WITH THE THROTTLE BODY ACTUATOR. THEY REPLACED THE THROTTLE BODY ASSEMBLY AND KEPT IT A FEW DAYS TO SEE IF IT WOULD LOSE POWER AGAIN. ACCORDING TO THEM IT DID NOT AND I PICKED IT UP. THIS IS THE FIRST DAY I HAVE HAD IT BACK AND SO FAR IT HAS RUN FINE. I AM DRIVING CHILDREN AROUND IN THIS VAN ALL THE TIME AND NOW I NEED TO BE CONCERNED THAT IT IS GOING TO STALL OR GO INTO "LIMP MODE" AS THE DEALER CALLED IT WHEN I PULL OUT ONTO THE BUSY ROADS WHERE I LIVE. I HOPE THEY FIXED IT. *TR

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, AIR BAGS, EXTERIOR LIGHTING
THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM HAS SHORTS AND HARNESS ISSUES ALL OVER. YOU HAD A RECENT RECALL, BUT NOT INVOLVING 2006 SEDONAS ONLY 2007. OUR VEHICLE HAS SAME ISSUE AS FOUND IN THE RECENT RECALL. THE AIRBAG LIGHT IS ON AND I HAVE NEVER HAD AN ACCIDENT. THE LIGHTING IS ALSO AFFECTED DUE TO THE WIRING HARNESS. I HAVE ONE BLINKER I CONSTANTLY REPLACE AND SAME WITH ONE FRONT HEAD LAMP. I HAVE SEEN OTHER COMPLAINTS OF THE SAME THING WITH THE SAME EXACT VEHICLE. *TR

SEAT BELTS, ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
I NOTICE THAT WHEN I UNBUCKLE MY SEATBELT, THE WARNING LIGHT DOES NOT COME ON, NOR DOES IT CHIME. IT DOES NOT MATTER IF YOU ARE IN DRIVE AND MOVING, OR PARKED. THE SEAT BELT LIGHT WON'T ILLUMINATE, NOR DOES THE CAR CHIME. THE ONLY TIME THE LIGHT ILLUMINATES IS WHEN YOU FIRST START UP THE VEHICLE. I DON'T BELIEVE IT EVER HAS IN THE ENTIRE LIFE OF THE VEHICLE. I NOW HAVE OVER 102,500 MILES ON THE VEHICLE. *TR

STEERING, SUSPENSION
I NOTICE NOISE AND A SHAKE IN THE STEERING WHEEL LIKE I HAD A FLAT TIRE. I PULLED OVER CHECKED FOR A FLAT TIRE OR LOOSE WHEEL. TIRES AND WHEELS CHECKED OK. AS I CONTINUED THE NOISE BECAME WORSE AND THE CAR STARTED WEAVING SIDE TO SIDE AND I STARTED HEARING A RUBBING NOISE WHEN I STOPPED. PULLED INTO THE DEALERSHIP FOR EVALUATION. THE MANAGER NOTICE THE LEFT FRONT WHEEL GO BACK AGAINST THE WHEEL WELL. CHECKED UNDER THE CAR AND NOTICE THE LEFT LOWER CONTROL ARM BROKE IN HALF. THE CONTROL ARM HAD RUSTED TO THE POINT THAT IT JUST FELL APART. WORKING FOR GENERAL MOTORS FOR 37 YEARS HAS A PROBLEM SOLVER AND QUALITY ENGINEER I HAVE NEVER SEEM A CONTROL ARM RUST AND BREAK. I DO BELIEVE AS TIME GOES ON THERE WILL BE MANY MORE FAILURES AND FATALITIES. THIS PROBLEM NEEDS TO BE ADDRESS BEFORE WE GET TO THE POINT OF PEOPLE DYEING. KIA IS AWARE OF THIS PROBLEM HOPEFULLY I WILL HERE SOME CORRECTIVE ACTION ON THIS PROBLEM SOON. I HAVE THE OLD PARTS. *TR

SERVICE BRAKES
I WAS DRIVING AND THE CAR IN FRONT OF ME SLAMMED ON THEIR BRAKES, THERE WAS MORE THAN A CAR LENGTH BETWEEN US, BUT WHEN I STEPPED ON BRAKES THE CAR ACCELERATED RATHER THAN STOPPED. I NOTICED OTHER TIMES THE CAR WOULDN'T STOP WHEN STEPPED ON THE BRAKES HARD. SINCE THEN I'M VERY CAUTIOUS ABOUT DRIVING IN BAD WEATHER, OR TOO CLOSE. BE CAREFUL OF PRESSING ON THE BRAKES TOO HARD!! *TR

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, SEATS
MY 2002 KIA SEDONA CAUGHT FIRE ON NOVEMBER 7, 2012. I WAS UNAWARE OF THE EXISTENCE OF ANY RECALLS NEEDED FOR MY KIA OR THAT I WAS DRIVING A VEHICLE THAT COULD START ON FIRE AT ANY TIME?..I HAVE CHILDREN AND A GRANDCHILD THAT I TRANSPORT! I SHOULD HAVE BEEN NOTIFIED OF THE RECALL. I NOTIFIED KIA THE DAY OF THE INCIDENT, PROVIDED ALL INCIDENT INFORMATION AND REPORTS FROM THE KIRKLAND FIRE DEPARTMENT, WAITED, AND CONTINUED TO DO ALL THAT WAS ASKED OF ME BY KIA. OVER 2 MONTHS LATER I WAS TOLD BY MICHELE HILLEGAS, NATIONAL CONSUMER AFFAIRS ANALYST, THAT MY VEHICLE WAS TOO OLD, WASN'T UNDER WARRANTY ANYMORE AND HADN'T BEEN FOR QUITE SOME TIME SO THEY WOULD NOT COMPENSATE ME FOR ANY LOSS. SHE ALSO STATED THAT IF I HAD FULL COVERAGE INSURANCE THIS WOULD HAVE COMPENSATED ME FOR MY LOSS. RECALLS HAVE NOTHING TO DO WITH THE DEALER WARRANTY OR MY INDIVIDUAL INSURANCE THAT I CARRY ON MY VEHICLE. SOON AFTER I BOUGHT MY KIA IN 2008 I PURCHASED AN 50,000 MILE EXTENDED VEHICLE WARRANTY FOR MY VEHICLE FROM A COMPANY KNOWN AS ENDURANCE WARRANTY WHICH HELPED ME MAINTAIN MY VEHICLE IN THE BEST WAY IT COULD BE. THIS WEB LINK TALKS ABOUT THE RECALL WHICH MY 2002 KIA SEDONA EX NEEDED??..HTTP://WWW.OHIOLEMONLAW.COM/SAFETY-RECALL-17.SHTML A FEW WEEKS PRIOR TO THE FIRE, MY ELECTRIC FRONT PASSENGER SEAT STOPPED WORKING. I BELIEVE NOW THAT A FAULTY ENGINEERING PROBLEM WELL DOCUMENTED BY KIA IS THE REASON WHY THAT SEAT QUIT WORKING AND THEN EVENTUALLY CAUSED A SHORT IN THE WIRING ULTIMATELY CAUSING THE FIRE IN THE FUSE BOX THAT DESTROYED MY VEHICLE. SINCE KIA IS REQUIRED TO PERFORM RECALLED REPAIRS TO ALL KIA VEHICLES INVOLVED IN RECALLS THAT ARE IN THEIR POSSESSION (KIA DEALERSHIPS) AND MY RIGHTS AS A KIA OWNER WERE NEGLECTED, I BELIEVE I AM LAWFULLY ENTITLED TO BE COMPENSATED FOR MY LOSS IN A FAIR AND EQUITABLE MANNER. *TR

TIRES
IN JUNE AND JULY OF 2011 I PURCHASED 4 YOKOHAMA 215/70R15 98S AVID TOURING S TIRES FOR MY 2005 KIA SEDONA VAN. WITHIN THE LAST 6 MONTHS I HAVE HAD TO REPLACE 3 TIRES DUE TO SEPARATION. DRIVING IS BOTH HIGHWAY AND CITY WITH AT LEAST 80 MILES HIGHWAY 5 DAYS EVER OTHER WEEK. SINCE PURCHASING THE TIRES I HAVE DRIVEN 46,000 MILES. THE FIRST SEPARATION OCCURRED AUGUST 1, 2012 WITH MILLAGE AT 157,000. THE SECOND ON NOVEMBER 21, 2012 AT 164,000 MILES. THE THIRD SEPARATION OCCURRED FEBRUARY 1, 2013 AT 176,000 MILES. THE SYMPTONS INDICATING A PROBLEM WITH THE TIRES ARE; A. WOBBLING OF THE VEHICLE AT VERY LOW SPEED, B. PULLING TO THE RIGHT OR LEFT, C. INTENSE VIBRATION AT HIGHWAY SPEED (>55). WE ARE LUCKY THERE HAVE BEEN NO ACCIDENTS RELATING TO THESE DEFECTIVE TIRES. THE FIRST TWO TIRES WERE REPLACED UNDER THE TIRE DEALERS WARRANTY PROGRAM. I LOST CONFIDENCE IN THE MANUFACTURER AND MODEL AFTER THE THIRD SEPARATION AND WITH CREDIT FROM YOKOHAMA PURCHASED FOUR NEW TIRES; DIFFERENT MAKE AND MODEL. ALL THE TIRES WERE RETAINED BY THE DEALER. THE LAST TIRE HAD A MANFACTURE DATE OF 81S0610. *TR

MY HUSBAND DROVE OUR KIA SEDONA EX TO WORK & PARKED IT IN THE PARKING LOT. ABOUT 30 MINUTES LATER, A COLLEAGUE NOTICED THE VAN ENVELOPED BY FLAMES - BURNING SO INTENSELY THAT THE WINDSHIELD MELTED! FIRE DEPT CAME, BROKE WINDOWS, AND PUT OUT FIRE, WHICH THEY NOTED ORIGINATED IN DASHBOARD, BUT TRAVELED THROUGHOUT THE CAR. THE VEHICLE WAS TOTALED, BUT OUR INSURANCE (ALLSTATE) DIDN'T REALLY OFFER US ENOUGH TO SUFFICIENTLY REPLACE IT. WE HAVE APPEALED TO KIA. WE LOVED OUR SEDONA BEFORE THIS HAPPENED. *TR
