Horn will periodically quit working for days at a time. Will randomly start working again. Safety issue as horn is not always available to alert other drivers when needed.

The ignition failed me as a customer. Vehicle was stolen outside my residence. No keys were left in vehicle. This is very dangerous and high risk especially due to rise in crime rates of car jacking. My vehicle has been recovered and in the dealership collision center since March 30, 2023. My vehicle has never been in any accidents, with the exception of this thief. Not quite sure of the outcome of the manufacture, highway traffic center nor dealership.The information that I’ve gathered is a lot of Hyundai and Kia vehicles are being stolen due to a leaked video on how to steal these brand of cars, which is terrible for buyers and owners. Please address these concerns, issues and unsettling problems for your customer safety.

My horn and car alarm would work and stop working for about two months now it does'nt work at all. I feel this is a safety issue because I can not blow my car horn to warn other drivers when they are cutting me off.

The seat belt light comes on continually on my new Kia. I've been advised there is a safety recall on the seat belt system / defect and received a letter regarding it. I've contacted the dealer several times (3 times) and they always state there is a "nationwide back order" on the parts. Since this is a safety item I believe they need to expedite the correct repair with pressure from your organization!

I have had my horn fail 4 or 5 times since owning the car. It first failed when I got the car and somehow the horn wires has came loose. The second time it failed it completely failed and was replaced under warranty. The horn that was replaced the under warranty failed over the winter in like November of 2021. I had it looked at and they said that it worked when they tested it in a warm environment. Left the dealership and was told that if it failed to just call them and they would order a replacement for it under warranty. That had never happened they looked at the horn again and ordered the replacement that was installed in march or April this year. And it failed again yesterday 8/24/22. Please have this addressed under a recall since I really do not want to keep pouring money into replacing the same part that fails every 4-6 months

Rear passenger seatbelt is constantly locked while passenger is wearing seatbelt. It will not expand to give the passenger some space, it’s so tight it cuts into your carotid artery. It’s a constant issue and a safety hazard.
