NHTSA complaint #10883872, filed 2016-07, 130,000 miles“While parked the brake tail lights stay on; while driving the cruise control malfunctions, and ESC light indicator illuminates and stays on. It is the same problems as the recall NHTSA #13v114000 and the Kia recall #sc098, but my VIN number apparently isn't listed as one that is affected, which it is! I have noticed it a couple of months ago, but now they all are getting worse. I did not know it was a recall problem.”

When driving or parked the brake lights appear in flashing manner and during that 5 second time it will lock and unlock my windows and if I am using my suppers they stop working sometimes.

NHTSA complaint #11310467, filed 2020-02, 85,000 miles“Stop lamp switch was replaced in 2013 due to safety recall 13v114000. At present the ESC light is malfuntioning and the vehicle will not shift out of park. Took the vehicle to our Kia dealership and the service department determined that a faulty stop lamp switch was the cause. The switch was replaced and vehicle operates as normal. A request for reimbursement has been submitted to Kia for the cost of the repair. This is a major safety concern and I feel it is the responsibility of Kia motors to issue another recall.”
NHTSA complaint #11060692, filed 2018-01, 159,048 miles“The ESC light illuminated in my Kia Sedona for two years on and off not until recently did I realize when this happed the brake lights would not illuminate. I brought car in and was charged $250 to replace the brake light switch. I saw this was a recall on 2007 Kia Sedona but dealer stated it did not include my Kia Sedona how can the same exact thing that happened on almost 1 million Kia and hyundai not be the same thing on my Kia Sedona. I believe my Kia should have been part of the recall and I should be issued a refund for this repair.”
