AIR BAGS
I RECEIVED A RECALL NOTICE ON MY 2007 KIA SORENTO TO HAVE THE CLOCK SPRING REPLACED. PRIOR TO TAKING THE CARTO THE DEALER THE AIRBAG WARNING LIGHT CAME ON. I TOOK THE CAR TO THE FRANKLIN TN DEALERSHIP ASSUMING THE LIGHT WAS CAUSED BY THE CLOCK SPRING RECALL. THE TECH INFORMED ME THAT IT WAS CAUSED BY THE OCS MAT IN THE PASSENGER SEAT AND IT COULD BE FIXED FOR $2,200+. HE ALSO SAID THAT I DID NOT NEED A CLOCK SPRING. WHEN I CHECKED ON THE CLOCK SPRING RECALL I SEE MY CAR NOW HAS NO RECALLS ACTIVE. WITH THE SAME OCS MAT PROBLEM BEING COVERED ON THE SPECTRA MODEL I FEEL THE SORENTO SHOULD ALSO BE INCLUDED IN THE EXTENDED COVERAGE.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
DAUGHTER WAS DRIVING THE VEHICLE WHEN THE TURN SIGNALS STARTED FLASHING. AS SHE PULLED TO A STOP, SOMEONE CAME UP TO HER WINDOW AND TOLD HER THERE WAS SMOKE COMING FROM THE BACK OF THE VEHICLE. SHE PULLED IN TO A PARKING LOT TO CALL ME. WHEN I ARRIVED AT THE VEHICLE THERE WAS A SMALL FIRE COMING FROM UNDERNEATH THE RIGHT REAR OF THE VEHICLE. FIRE DEPARTMENT WAS CALLED AND FIRE WAS OUT BY THE TIME THEY ARRIVED. FIRE DEPARTMENT LOOKED UNDERNEATH THE VEHICLE AND FOUND THAT THE TRAILER HITCH WIRING HARNESS SHORTED OUT AND STARTED ON FIRE. MY DAUGHTER WAS NOT TOWING ANYTHING AT THE TIME. WIRING HARNESS IS OEM

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, ENGINE, FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
TAKATA RECALL I HAVE HAD MY 07' SORENTO TO SEVERAL PLACES. I ORIGINALLY TOOK IT TO THE PLACE I BIOUGHT IT FROM. I WAS REFERRED TO A KIA DEALERSHIP, WHICH TOOK MY CAR APART TWICE AND RAN A CAMERA THROUGH IT AND REPLACED THE REAR CRANK SHAFT. THEN I REPLACED EVERY SENSOR AND SPARK PLUG ION THE THING AND ALSO HAD POWER STEERING PROBLEMS. IT SOUNDED LOUD AND WAS ALWAYS NEEDING PARTS BUT IN THE SPRING, I PULLED IN MY DRIVEWAY AND LEFT MY CAR RUNNING A FEW MINUTES WHILE I GOT THINGS OUTSIDE TAKEN CARE OF BECAUSE IT WAS DARK,( THE CAR HAS APPROX.124,000 MILES ON IT) WHILE IT SAT IN MY DRIVEWAY FOR MAYBE 5 MINUTES IT SPIT AND SPUTTERED AND DIED IN MY DRIVEWAY. I TRIED TO RESTART IT AND IT WOULD BARELY START RUNNING. I TOOK IT TO HAVE IT LOOKED AT ONCE AGAIN AND WAS TOLD TIMING CHAIN, ELECTRICAL AND CRANK SHAFT AGAIN. NEEDS NEW ENGINE MOST LIKELY AND NO ONE WANTS TO WORK ON IT BECAUSE IT HAS SOME MANY ISSUES! SO , I AM PAYING A LOAN FOR THIS CAR THAT HAS BEEN SITTING IN MY DRIVEWAY FOR MONTHS BECAUSE I WILL NOT AND CANNOT PAY FOR THIS VEHICLE TO HAVE ANYMORE WORK DONE!

SERVICE BRAKES, ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL (ESC), ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
I OWN A 2007 KIA SORENTO. RECENTLY, MY CHECK ENGINE AND ESC OFF LIGHTS BECAME ILLUMINATED ON MY DASHBOARD. I NOTICED THAT MY BRAKE LIGHTS WERE NOT ILLUMINATING WHEN I PRESSED THE BRAKE PEDAL. AFTER LOOKING UP MY CAR MAKE AND MODEL ON THE NHTSA WEBSITE, I NOTICED THERE WAS A RECALL FOR MY MODEL YEAR SORENTO FOR THE EXACT SAME PROBLEMS (NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER 13V114000/KIA SERVICE CAMPAIGN SC098). I TOOK THE CARTO MY LOCAL KIA DEALERSHIP AND THEY TOLD ME I WAS NOT ELIGIBLE FOR THE RECALL AS MY VIN WAS NOT INCLUDED. AS SUCH, I HAVE TO DRIVE AROUND WITHOUT FUNCTIONAL BRAKE LAMPS UNTIL I GET THIS PROBLEM RESOLVED--INCREASING MY CHANCES OF BEING REAR-ENDED. I TRAVEL CONSTANTLY FOR WORK SO I DO NOT HAVE THE LUXURY OF NOT DRIVING. THIS NEEDS TO BE INVESTIGATED AND RESOLVED.

SEAT BELTS, STRUCTURE:BODY, STEERING
EACH DOOR HANDLE IS POPPING AND I'M UNABLE TO OPEN DOORS FROM THE OUTSIDE. THE REAR PASSENGER DOOR HAS STOPPED WORKING AND AT THE TIME THE CHILD LOCK WAS ON AND I CAN NO LONGER USE THAT DOOR AT ALL. THE SEATBELT ON THE REAR DRIVER'S SIDE WILL NOT BUCKLE INTO THE SOCKET AND MY CHILD HAS TO WRAP THE BELT AROUND HIM WHEN HE RIDES IN THE BACK. SHOULD AN ACCIDENT OCCUR, NOT ONLY WILL HE NOT BE FULLY COVERED BY HIS SAFETY SEAT, BUT IF WE SHOULD HAVE TO ESCAPE SUDDENLY, NEITHER OF US CAN JUST OPEN OUR DOORS AND GET OUT! THIS IS AN ONGOING ISSUE AND IT'S QUITE EXPENSIVE TO GET FIXED AT THE DEALER. ALSO, JUST RECENTLY WHILE DRIVING THE GEAR SHAFT POPPED OUT OF PLACE AND MY FATHER TAPED IT BACK ON SO THAT I'M ABLE TO GET BACK AND FORTH TO WORK AND SCHOOL.

STRUCTURE:BODY, WHEELS, EXTERIOR LIGHTING
WHEN TRYING TO OPEN THE DRIVERS DOOR, THERE WAS A LOUD POP AND THE DOOR WAS UNABLE TO BE OPENED FROM THE OUTSIDE. THIS IS A MAJOR ISSUE IN THE EVENT OF AN EMERGENCY OR AN ACCIDENT. I'VE GONE TO THE KIA DEALER AND THEY ARE QUOTING AN OUTRAGEOUS AMOUNT JUST TO TAKE A LOOK AT THE ISSUE. THIS IS INCONVENIENT WHILE I TRAVEL TO AND FROM WORK, AS I HAVE TO CLIMB THROUGH THE PASSENGER SIDE IN ORDER TO GET IN THE CAR! THE PROBLEM INITIALLY BEGAN DECEMBER OF 2014, AND MY FATHER HAD TO LEAVE A STICK OR A WIRED HANGER ON THE FLOOR BOARDS SO THAT WHEN ENTERING THE VEHICLE I WOULD LEAN IN THROUGH EITHER THE PASSENGER OR REAR DRIVERS DOOR TO OPEN THE DRIVER DOOR. ON 8/4/15, THE DOOR HAS STOPPED WORKING COMPLETELY. THIS IS OBVIOUSLY A MANUFACTURING ISSUE AS THE SAME THING HAS HAPPENED TO THE REAR PASSENGER DOOR AS WELL. I HAVEN'T FOUND AN INDEPENDENT REPAIR PERSON THAT CAN ACTUALLY FIX THIS ISSUE AND IT'S SOMETHING THAT NEEDS ATTENTION ASAP!

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, EXTERIOR LIGHTING
WHEN OPENING DOORS, THE DOME LIGHT NO LONGER WOULD TURN ON. THIS EVENTUALLY CONTINUED UNTIL THE FRONT LIGHTS NO LONGER TURN ON, AND NOW THE REAR HATCH LIGHTS DO NOT TURN ON EITHER. THE LIGHTS WORK WHEN THEY ARE MANUALLY TURNED ON, JUST NOT WHEN THE DOORS OPEN. IT WAS CHECKED BY A REPAIR SHOP AND THEY SAY IT IS NOT A SWITCH ISSUE (AS THE LIGHTS ON THREE OF THE DOORS STILL LIGHT WHEN OPEN). THEY FEEL IT IS AN ELECTRICAL ISSUE AND FOUND HUNDREDS OF POSTS FROM AS FAR BACK AS 2003 SORENTOS WITH THE SAME ISSUES. THE LIGHTS NOT TURNING ON IS A HUGE SAFETY ISSUE FOR MYSELF AND MY FAMILY TRYING TO ENTER A PITCH BLACK VEHICLE AT NIGHT TIME. *TR

ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL (ESC), POWER TRAIN, VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL
I OWN A 2007 KIA SORENTO LX WITH 47,760 MILES ON IT CURRENTLY (TODAY'S DATE 09/10/2014). THE FIRST SYMPTOMS HAPPENED A FEW MONTHS AGO WHERE MY CAR WOULD HESITATE UPON ACCELERATION AND/OR I WOULD BE TRAVELING BETWEEN 30-45 MPH AND THE CAR WOULD BEGIN BUCKING/JERKING FOR A FEW SECONDS. THIS WAS VERY INTERMITTENT AND RANDOM. IF I TOOK MY FOOT OFF THE GAS PEDAL, THEN REAPPLIED THE GAS THE CAR WOULD BE FINE. THEN THAT SYMPTOM WENT AWAY AND I GAINED A NEW SYMPTOM. I WAS DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 30 MPH, WHEN ALL OF THE SUDDEN MY ECS OFF LIGHT AND CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON SIMULTANEOUSLY, AND I INSTANTLY LOST POWER/ACCELERATION. IT APPEARS THAT WHEN THIS HAPPENS THE CAR GOES INTO "LIMP HOME" MODE? IT HAS HAPPENED TWICE TO ME IN THE PAST 3 DAYS. THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS BECAUSE THE LOSS OF POWER/ACCELERATION IS INSTANT, IT HAPPENS WITHOUT WARNING, AND IT DOES NOT MATTER HOW FAST YOU ARE GOING. THIS COULD CAUSE LOSS OF LIFE IF IT HAPPENS ON A HIGHWAY AT A HIGH RATE OF SPEED. ALL OF THESE SYMPTOMS BEGAN TO APPEAR RIGHT AFTER I HAD THE RECALLS DONE ON MY VEHICLE (I.E. BRAKE SWITCH AND ECM UPGRADE). MY CAR WAS FINE BEFORE I HAD THE RECALLS DONE. *TR

ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL (ESC), EXTERIOR LIGHTING
BEGINNING IN EARLY AUGUST 2014, THE ESC AND CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WOULD ILLUMINATE WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD. THE VEHICLE ACCELERATOR STOPS WORKING AND THE VEHICLE GOES INTO LIMP MODE. WE ARE UNABLE TO GET MORE THAN 40 MPH OUT OF IT AND ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS, NEARLY CAUSED AN ACCIDENT WHEN OTHER VEHICLES WOULD COME UP FROM BEHIND VERY SUDDENLY. WE WERE FORTUNATE THAT WE WERE IN AN AREA WHERE WE COULD GET OFF THE ROAD QUICKLY. ONCE WE HAVE COME TO A STOP, IF WE TURN THE ENGINE OFF AND RESTART, THE LIGHTS RESET THEMSELVES AND THE VEHICLE FUNCTIONS NORMALLY UNTIL THE NEXT TIME IT HAPPENS. THE FIRST TIME IT HAPPENED WAS SHORTLY AFTER WE BOUGHT THE CAR NEW AND THE KIA DEALERSHIP REPLACED A BRAKE LIGHT SWITCH UNDER RECALL #09V130000. THIS HELPED UNTIL RECENTLY. WE TOOK THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY REPLACED A THROTTLE POSITION SENSOR AT THE COST OF $395.00. IT HELPED FOR TWO WEEKS AND THE PROBLEM RETURNED EXACTLY THE SAME. THIS TIME THE DEALER INFORMED US THAT IT WAS THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL ASSY - ENGINE CONTROL SYSTEM AT THE TUNE OF $250.00 ALL THESE ITEMS ARE PART OF THE ESC SYSTEM AND CAUSE THE VEHICLE TO GO TO LIMP MODE. I'M CONCERNED THAT THERE MAY BE OTHER SUB-ASSEMBLIES ASSOCIATED WITH IT AND EVERY TIME ONE GOES BAD, WE'LL END UP IN LIMP MODE AND/OR A HOOD ORNAMENT ON A KENWORTH. THIS IS RIDICULOUS AND NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED BY KIA AT NO COST TO CONSUMERS. *TR

AIR BAGS
2007 KIA SORENTO PASSENGER SEAT AIR BAG ALARM - DUE TO SEAT SENSOR PROBLEMS OR OTHER PROBLEMS. PROBLEM HAS RECURRED HUNDREDS OF TIMES SINCE PURCHASED NEW. ADVISED BY SERVICE MANAGER OF GREER, SC KIA THAT FAULT WAS DUE TO PASSENGER NOT SITTING PROPERLY IN SEAT WITH FEET POSITIONED PROPERLY BUT ADVISED BY A KIA TECHNICIAN, CONFIDENTIALLY, THAT THIS IS NOT TRUE. PASSENGER SEAT SENSOR WAS ADJUSTED AFTER SEVERAL VISITS BUT FAULT RECURS TIME AFTER TIME WHICH MEANS THE PASSENGER AIR BAG WILL NOT DEPLOY IN THE EVENT OF A CRASH. KIA DOES NOT APPEAR TO TAKE MATTER SERIOUSLY. THIS COULD RESULT IN DEATHS. OTHER DEALER REPRESENTATIVES REFERS THE PROBLEM BACK TO SERVICE MANAGER ONLY. NUMBER OF COMPLAINTS: AT LEAST SIX OR MORE - TO LITTLE AVAIL. PROBLEM STILL EXISTS FROM TIME TO TIME. USUALLY THE PASSENGER CAN BOUNCE UP AND DOWN SEVERAL TIMES AND FINALLY GET THE ALARM TO EXTINGUISH SHOWING NORMAL AIR BAG OPERATION FOR THE PASSENGER SIDE. WROTE LETTER TO REGIONAL KIA DEALERSHIP TO NO AVAIL. CALLED KIA HELP LINE TO NO AVAIL. ONLY TOLD TO REFER PROBLEM TO KIA DEALERSHIP SERVICE MANAGER. INCIDENT DATE SINCE TIME OF PURCHASE IN JUNE OR JULY, 2007. GUESSING PURCHASE DATE SINCE IT HAS BEEN A FEW YEARS. STILL OWN VEHICLE. *TR

SERVICE BRAKES, ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL (ESC), EXTERIOR LIGHTING
ESC AND CHECK ENGINE LIGHT ILLUMINATED. TOOK VEHICLE TO DEALER FOR REPAIRS. DEALER SERVICE DEPT STATED THAT BRAKE LIGHT SWITCH WAS AT FAULT, BUT THAT IT HAD BEEN PREVIOUSLY REPLACED IN MAR 2010 UNDER A RECALL CAMPAIGN. AFTER REPLACING SWITCH THIS TIME, DEALER SERVICE ADVISER STATED THAT SWITCH APPEARED TO BE ORIGINAL, BUT THAT I WOULD STILL HAVE TO PAY FOR PARTS AND LABOR ($129.86). I PAID BUT PROTESTED. I HAVE SERIOUS DOUBTS THAT BRAKE LIGHT SWITCH WAS REPLACED IN MAR 2010 AS DEALER STATED, SINCE THE RECENTLY REPLACED SWITCH APPEARED TO BE ORIGINAL EQUIPMENT. SUBSEQUENTLY, I FEEL AS THOUGH I SHOULD NOT HAVE TO PAY FOR THE MOST RECENT (AUG 2014) REPAIR, ESPECIALLY IF SWITCH HAD NOT BEEN REPLACED UNDER RECALL CAMPAIGN PREVIOUSLY. I SUSPECT THAT DEALER EITHER FALSIFIED THE MAR 2010 REPAIR, AND/OR REPLACED RECALLED SWITCH WITH IDENTICAL REPLACEMENT (WHICH IS PRONE TO FAILURE). WHAT GOOD IS A RECALL IF ORIGINAL DEFECT WAS SIMPLY REINSTALLED? I DO HAVE POSSESSION OF DEFECTIVE SWITCH REPLACED IN AUG 2014. NOT ONLY DO I WANT MY MONEY RETURNED TO ME, BUT I WOULD LIKE SOME ASSURANCE THAT THE PROBLEM IS NOW REMEDIED WITH A RELIABLE SWITCH. PLEASE RESPOND. *TR
