“The sliding doors on both sides of the vehicle appear faulty. They routinely do not function with the button and I am required to manually close them. They also do not automatically stop and have nearly closed on my arm before. They are very glitchy. The drivers sliding door does not properly close all of the way approximately 10-15% of the time.”

“On multiple occasions my headlights will turn on or off when using turn signals or just hitting a bump. This is extremely dangerous as I live in a rural area with no street lights. This issue has been going on for several months now and is becoming more frequent. My 2015 Sedona only has 90k miles and I would not expect to have an issue like this at this time.”

“Very often when I pull down on left turn signal the right side blinks instead. Signaled left last week started to turn left and a car almost hit me passing on my left. I try to be alert to the problem but sometimes I forget. I have seen many other Kia Sedona owners complaining about this problem and near miss accidents.”

“As consistently as multiple times each day, when using the blinker function on my 2015 Kia Sedona. The headlights will turn off completely. I have to wiggle the device to restore headlight function. It appears to have loose connectivity or wire, but is a significant safety issue when driving at dark.”

NHTSA complaint #11388132, filed 2021-01, 110,000 miles

“Takata recall sliding doors do not properly close all the time and can pop open while driving. So I have to get out and close the door by hand. This has happend on different occasions since november of 2016. The Kia dealership I went to said they fixed the problem but still had issues after that.”
