“The headlights keeps blowing. Have replaced 3 times. All the light on the inside keeps coming on (battery, check engine light, seat belt light; bell rings). Had alternator checked and it is fine. The fuses are fine. There is defect with this vehicle, I saw others with the same complaint, even on newer models. The company needs to fix this. Can't drive the vehicle at night. And the light replacement is expensive. There is a shaking and rumbling sound coming from vehicle. Have had engine problems, have had problems every since I this vehicle. Its been at the shop more than on the road. …”
NHTSA complaint #10537811, filed 2013-08, 163,000 miles“We purchased the 2002 Kia Sedona yesterday 12-28-03. We drove the car for about 45 minutes today, stopped for dinner at a fast food restaurant and then drove again for about 10 minutes when while driving the vehicle, the battery and brake warning lights flashed on and off a few times, then stayed on. When the brake pedal was depressed, the radio shut off and would not come back on. Then the seatbelt warning light came on and the dash lights, exterior and interior lights dimmed. While car was still in motion, the sunroof would not close and the other windows were very slow at closing. …”
