“My Kia Rondo's windshield wipers have failed 3 times in the last 8 months. They always fail during heavy rain and when they are on a high speed. I have replaced the windshield wiper motors. At this point the turning function of the wipers is visible at the ball and socket joint, but this does not translate to the wipers themselves. They seem to have difficulty lifting, if they will do so at all. And if they come back down it is with a loud thud.”

NHTSA complaint #10389892, filed 2011-03, 98,657 miles

“The contact owns a 2007 Kia Rondo. There is a crack on the front windshield of the vehicle. It appears to be the exact shape of the vehicle defroster on the dashboard. The crack started on the bottom half of the passenger side and within six months it had expanded to the driver side. The crack goes along the front bottom of the vehicle windshield. The owners are concerned it may break or water may leak through. They stated that there has been no sort of incident that may have started the crack and believe it is a manufacture defect. …”
