2016 Kia Sedona Brakes Problems

“Our vehicle has the electronic stability light, ABS, light on. It over heats if sitting still. The cooling fan is not working replaced the fuse relay. For the cooling fan, still no cooling fan. Constantly filling the coolant. It seems to be electrical but I decided to wait for a pro to see if it is recall related. When the light first came on while the van was in motion 55 MPH, the lights came on and went off three times for staying on. Abs,electronic stability control, this is when the overheating problem started while idling.”

“While pulling into my driveway going between 5-10 MPH I applied the brake and the vehicle lunged forward into my garage door which was closed and damaged another car parked in the garage. If the other car was not there to stop it I may have been killed. I reported this to Kia and the investigation only showed a blown fuse when they connected it to the tester. There are two other accidents that I know of with similar circumstances, please check into this before someone is killed or loses money due to something that was not their fault. …”

“The persistent problem that we have had with our vehicle is the engine shuts down while driving, causing a serious safety hazard. The safety hazard is serious in that, while the vehicle is in motion, power steering shuts off and the brakes are slow to work.

Other factors are unknown. …”

Steering and braking stopped working correctly. We were traveling through a parking lot at the time so luckily not at high speed or this could have ended deadly. The vehicle would not immediately start back up, we put it in park, turned the key and the engine would turn over but not start. After 4 or 5 tries it did start, and the only fault to appear was the ABS light which came on and stayed on solid. …”

“My daughter was driving when this incident occurred. While in heavy traffic, she had come to a stop. After stopping then resuming a very slow speed (5 MPH or less), while her foot was on the brake pedal, the vehicle lunged forward in to the vehicle in front of her, causing significant front-end damage and air bag deployment. A few weeks prior to this, I was in the vehicle in my front yard at a stand still, engine running and transmission in drive because I was going to be moving it slightly, and it suddenly lunged forward while my foot was on the brake. …”
