2016 KIA SEDONA Complaints

BEFORE STARTING THE CAR. THE SLIDING DRIVERS SIDE DOOR CONTINUOUSLY WILL MAKE A GRINDING SOUND WHEN CLOSING AND THEN NOT LATCH. AFTER THIS THE ONLY WAY TO OPEN THE DOOR IS WITH THE BUTTON ON THE CEILING. I AM NOT ABLE TO OPEN THE DOOR MANUALLY. IT NOW HAPPENS EVERYTIME I CLOSE THE DOOR. I CAN SUBMIT A VIDEO.

THE POWER SLIDING DOORS WON'T LATCH AND ITS MOSTLY THE DRIVER SIDE. IT HAPPENS WHETHER WE ARE DRIVING OR PARKED.

THE FEMALE PLUG ON THE AC PIGTAIL SWITCH THAT WORKS THE FRONT A/C FAN WAS DEFECTIVE. I REPLACED THE PLUG AND THE PIGTAIL. I THINK YOU NEED TO KNOW THAT THE FEMALE PLUG WAS SHORTED OUT AND BURNED. IT WAS LIKE THIS WHEN I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE 07072020. THE UNSAFE CONDITION WAS THE BURNED FEMALE PLUG WHICH COULD HAVE RESULTED IN A DASH FIRE.

THE TURN SIGNAL INDICATOR RANDOMLY FAILS TO ACTIVE THE LEFT TURN SIGNAL. WHEN SIGNALING RIGHT IT ALWAYS WORKS, WHEN SIGNALING LEFT IT IS HIT OR MISS. IT HAS BECOME MORE OFTEN OVER THE LAST YEAR. THIS CREATES PROBLEM WHEN I SIGNAL LEFT AND START TO MOVE THEN REALIZE THE LEFT SIGNAL DID NOT COME ON I HAVE HAD TO JERK BACK INTO LANE TO AVOID ACCIDENT.

THE SIDE DOOR DOES NOT CLOSE ALL THE WAY AND MAKES A LOUD NOISE. WE BROUGHT IT IN FOR THIS BEFORE ABOUT 3 MONTHIS AGO AND IT STARTED DOING THE SAME THING AGAIN. I HAVE READ MANY COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS. THE DOOR IS NOT OVER USED. NOW THE VEHICLE HAS 43000 MILES ON IT AND IT IS OUT OF WARRANTY. WE HAVE 4 CHILDREN AND ARE AFRAID FOR THEIR SAFTEY WITH A DOOR THAT DOES NOT CLOSE ALL THE WAY. I FEEL IF IT WAS FIXED RIGHT THE FIRST TIME THERE WOULDN'T BE A REOCCURRING ISSUE. THANK YOU.

THE DRIVER SIDE AUTOMATIC SLIDING DOOR MOTOR SEEMS TO BE FAILING AND WILL NOT LATCH COMPLETELY WHICH CAUSES THE DOOR NOT TO CLOSE ALL THE WAY.

CHECK ENGINE LIGHT IS ON, HAD PLUGS REPLACED AND INJECTOR 6 REPLACED THE CODES READ P0278 AND P0306. P0278 STILL COMES ON. THE SLIDING DOORS DO NOT LATCH, HAVE TO GET OUT OF THE VAN AND CLOSE THEM. IT ONLY HAS 83,500 MILES, ALSO LEFT TURN SIGNAL DOESN'T WORK PROPERLY.

LOW BEAM HEADLIGHTS. FLICKR AND ONE WILL GO OUT AND SOMETIMES THE OTHER WILL GO OUT AND HAVE GONE OUT TOGETHER WHILE DRIVING WITH OUT ANY WARNING. AFTER LOOKING THIS ISSUE UP ONLINE IT APPEARS THAT THERE ARE MANY OTHER 2016 KIA SEDONA'S HAVING EXACT SAME ISSUE ALONG WITH OTHER KIA MAKE AND MODELSAFTER LOOKING THIS ISSUE UP ONLINE IT APPEARS THAT THERE ARE MANY OTHER 2016 KIA SEDONA'S HAVING EXACT SAME ISSUE ALONG WITH OTHER KIA MAKE AND MODEL.

WHILE DRIVING WASN'T GETTING MUCH POWER THEN CAR STOPPED IN THE MIDDLE OF THE STREET I HAD THIS ISSUE PREVIOUSLY AND KIA SAID IT WAS MY FAULT AND I DIDN'T PUT OIL WOULD NOT REPAIR SO I FIXED MYSELF NOW THE SAME EXACT THING IS HAPPENING. *TR

THE VEHICLE CAUGHT ON FIRE WHILE PARKED IN THE DRIVEWAY AND BURNED TO THE GROUND. WE CONTACTED KIA MOTORS REGARDING THIS. IT TOOK THEM WEEKS BEFORE THEY SENT OUT A REPRESENTATIVE TO INSPECT THE VEHICLE. UPON INCEPTION OF THE VEHICLE THEY SIMPLY DENIED THAT THE ENGINE FIRE WAS CAUSED BY FAULTY PARTS AND DECLINED RESPONSIBLY FOR THE IT!
