“While driving down the freeway at 65 MPH, the driver's side sliding door opened up while my 8 month old grand-daughter was in the seat next to the opened door, thankfully secured in her car seat. I am surprised to see that no recall has been issued for this after reading so many other complaints of this exact incident!”
NHTSA complaint #10577581, filed 2014-04, 35,000 miles“While driving at highway speed the hood popped open and bent the hood and smashed the windshield. I already had the recall on the hood latch repaired in 2017 at a Kia dealer. I brought it back to the dealer and they they cant help me and said to report it to Kia corporate. The hood now wont close due to damage. The impact also broke the rear-view mirror and inside light console. It seems that hood latch problem has not been rectified. I have filed a complaint with Kia and a claim with my insurance provider.”
NHTSA complaint #11219599, filed 2019-06, 153,456 miles“Sub frame bushings on my 2007 Kia Sedona ,are according to my Kia dealership toast . Noise started at 70000 miles. They are not under warranty. This is way to early for this type of bushing to fail, under very average driving conditions. This should be a recall fix.”
NHTSA complaint #10386649, filed 2011-03, 70,000 miles“We have had several problems with this vehicle. We just replaced both the rear and front sub bushings. Our mechanic said this problem should have never occurred on a vehicle this young. We only have one sliding door that functions right now. The driver side sliding door does not work unless you physically pull it open and shut. I have been reading the same complaints from several 2007 Kia owners. Why has there been no recall issued?”
NHTSA complaint #10441545, filed 2011-12, 59,000 miles“For 4 years now, the sliding doors on my family van (2007 Kia Sedona) have been popping open while driving. This can happen when I simply press the gas, hit a very minor bump, or sometimes doesn't appear to have a cause. The overhead lights all come on, the door open chime begins to ding. I've taken this to Kia almost a dozen times to no resolve. And now, the problem continues and though it's been recurring for 4 years now, they want to charge me for out of warranty service.”
