2007 Kia Spectra Other or unknown Problems

“The car locks and unlocks repeatedly on its own when I'm trying to unlockthe driver and/or passenger door. The car is always stationary when I try to unlock the door(s), it will sometimes lock on its own when I'm driving. This started happening about 2 years ago.”

“I was driving on the interstate about 65 MPH. All of sudden, the car lost all forward motion power. When I pressed the gas, the rpms increased, but the car did not get any power. The engine continued to run without problem. After stopping on the shoulder, I put the car in park and turned off the engine. After starting again, I put the car in drive, the forward power was working again and the car shifted fine. Transmission fluid was changed at 110,000 miles. Suspecting transmission, I took to a transmission specialist. …”

“I was drive my 2007 Kia Spectra EX in Bakersfield, CA. All of a sudden I parked my car at the gas station, I filled the car up, and I tried putting the transmission into drive but the car would not go forward. I went and searched why the car would not go forward, and I found out other Kia Spectra owners had the same problem. Is there any way to make Kia recall those cars and replace or repair the transmissions under a national recall.”

“The car doors lock randomly while driving, while parked, even in park with the car running--I got locked out with the car running for over 2 hours a couple of months ago. I have learned to have a window open if I exit the car while it is running or to make sure the keys are in my hands any time I exit the car. They also lock and unlock repeatedly when I am trying to unlock the doors to enter the vehicle. With so many people experiencing the same problems with this car, why is this not being addressed?”
