2010 Kia Forte Air bags Problems

“While coasting into a parking spot my car lurched forward at a high rate of speed into a retaining wall. Kia is denying any responsibility. I am currently awaiting word from my body shop as to if the car will be totaled or not. If it is fixable I am very frightened to continue driving it. I am seeing numerous complaints about this issue and nothing is being done about it.”

“I was on the interstate passing an 18 wheeler. My rear passenger side tire blew. The tire caused me to make a sharp right hand turn which threw me under the 18 wheeler. The truck went over the passenger side. I was then thrown into oncoming traffic then into the median. The vehicle is totaled - the air bags did not deploy.”

“My airbag has been on for ovr a yr. Took it to a dealer to get repaired. The light was off for 4 days and cane back on and stays on. Back again. And still had to pay another diag. Fee. But they said it was fixed. Now my car sounds really loud...knocking thats annoying. Everytime I start my car and drive it makes that noise. Just found out. Its an airbag module that wasnt covered in the recall. Why cldnt they find that at 1st. Smh. Very disappointed in Kia. Going to a different mfg...like toyota”

“My wife was involved in a single vehicle accident in our 2010 Kia Forte koup, she was traveling 50 MPH and attempted to avoid a dog in the roadway when she over corrected and went off the road and hit a ditch, the vehicle was deemed totaled , during this accident the air bags failed to deploy and the seatbelt failed to restrain her, my wife hit the steering wheel with her forehead, nose, and upper chest.”

“This is the 2nd head on collision I've had with the Kia Forte and on both incidents my airbags did not deploy. This concerns me. Also the car jumps into shift and the brake lights don't always work.”
