2008 KIA SEDONA Complaints

TODAY LOOKING MY CAR VALUE, FOUND THAT MY WAGON HAVE 4 RECALLS. I'M WORRY FOR THIS SITUATION.

WHILE DRIVING TRIED TO STOP FOR A LIGHT AND BRAKES FAILED, PEDAL WENT TO THE FLOOR ABS DID NOT ENGAGE AND FINALLY SLOWED. THIS IS SECOND MASTER CYLINDER ON THE VEHICLE. MY MECHANIC WHO DID THE REPLACEMENT SEVERAL YEARS AGO TRIED TWO MORE NEW MASTER CYLINDERS TODAY AND THEY ALSO FAILED TO HOLD PRESSURE. DEALER WAS NO HELP WITH POSSIBLE SOLUTION. I NEED TO TAP THE BRAKE PEDAL TO STOP THE VEHICLE. WE CAN FIND NO RECALLS ON THE MASTER CYLINDER

SLIDING DOORS GET STUCK SHUT, AND UNABLE TO OPEN THEM EVEN UNLOCKING THEM MANUALLY DOES NOT HELP, HAVING TO PULL HANDLES SEVERAL TIMES TO GET THEM TO OPEN

BRAKE LIGHT WILL NOT TURN OFF, EVEN THE ENGINE IS OFF. IT IS DANGEROUS TO DRIVE THE CAR AS THE BRAKE LIGHT IS ALWAYS ON. KIA HAD A RECALL ON THIS ISSUE (HTTPS://WWW.AUTOMOTIVE-FLEET.COM/143442/HYUNDAI-KIA-ISSUE-RECALLS-FOR-BRAKE-LIGHT-ISSUE) FOR MANY CARS. HOWEVER, I CONTACTED KIA AND WAS TOLD IT IS MY OWN PROBLEM. I CONTACTED LOCAL DEALER AND THEY WERE VERY KIND AT THE BEGINNING, HOWEVER, AFTER I DESCRIBED THE PROBLEM, THEY DID NOT REPLY MY EMAIL. I DO BELIEVE KIA IS TRYING TO CHEAT CUSTOMERS TO AVOID THEIR RESPONSIBILITY.

THE SIDE DOORS ON MY 2008 KIA SEDONA VAN OPEN UNEXPECTEDLY AS I AM DRIVING THE VAN ON THE HIGHWAY. IT HAS DONE THIS MANY TIMES IN THE LAST 4 MONTHS. I HAVE A 2 AND 3 YEAR OLD IN THE BACKSEAT IN CHILDSEATS.

LOWER ARM NEEDS TO REPLACE DUE TO OLD.THE FRONT LOWER CONTROL ARMS MAY BREAK DUE TO CORROSION FROM SALT WATER EXPOSURE SUCH AS FROM ROAD SALT USE. HEAR A CRANKING SOUND WHEN DRIVING ON THE ROAD OR RUN OVER POTHOLES

ME AND MY 2 YEAR OLD DRIVING IN THE MIDDLE OF THE FREEWAY WHEN THE HOOD HIT THE WINDSHIELD AND THANK GOD THE DRIVERS ON MY RIGHT SIDE HELP US GET OVER OR WE PROBABLY BE DEAD.

2008 KIA SEDONA. CONSUMER WRITES IN REGARDS TO AIRBAG RECALL. *LD THE CONSUMER STATED THE VEHICLE WAS OUT OF WARRANTY THEREFORE COULD THE COST WOULD NOT BE COVERED.*JS

AIR BAG LIGHT CAME ON OUT OF NOWHERE. VEHICLE WAS JUST STARTED WHEN THE LIGHT CAME ON AND WAS STATIONARY.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2008 KIA SEDONA. WHILE STATIONARY AND DRIVING VARIOUS SPEEDS, BOTH SLIDING DOORS WOULD OPEN WITHOUT BEING PROMPTED, AND WOULD NOT CLOSE WHEN SIGNIFICANT PRESSURE WAS APPLIED. THE FAILURE BECAME INCREASINGLY WORSE OVER THE PAST TWO YEARS. AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC GREASED THE INTERIOR PARTS OF BOTH SLIDING DOORS, BUT THE FAILURE RECURRED. A DEALER AND MANUFACTURER WERE NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 144,252.
