I OWN A 2014 KIA SORENTO. THERE IS AN OPEN RECALL THAT HAS BEEN GOING ON FOR A WHILE WITH THIS CAR. I TALKED TO MY LOCAL KIA DEALER MONTHS AGO AND THEY SAID THEY WOULD PUT ME ON A WAITLIST TO FIX THE RECALL BECAUSE THEY DIDN'T HAVE THE PARTS. NOW IT'S BEEN A FEW MONTHS AND I'M STILL WAITING. THEY SAY THEY STILL DON'T HAVE THE PARTS. NOW IT'S LEADING TO OTHER PROBLEMS WITH THE ENGINE AND I EVENTUALLY WANT TO SELL THE CAR, BUT NOTHING CAN GET DONE UNTIL THIS RECALL IS FIXED! BECAUSE OF THE RECALL, MY CAR IS AT RISK OF CATCHING ON FIRE SO I CAN'T PARK IN MY GARAGE. IT'S UNSAFE HAVING TO WAIT MONTHS TO GET A RECALL LIKE THIS FIXED!
