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.

THE DRIVERS SIDE AUTOMATIC DOOR DOESN'T OPEN AT ALL NOW WHEN YOU PUSH THE BUTTON INSIDE. IT ACTS LIKE IT IS CATCHING ON SOMETHING SO IT DOESN'T OPEN. IF YOU PULL THE HANDLE, OUTSIDE, IT SOMETIMES WILL FINISH OPENING OR CLOSING BY ITSELF. BUT YOU HAVE TO GIVE IT THAT PULL TO GET IT PAST THE CATCHING POINT. YOU NEVER KNOW IF IT WILL RUN AUTOMATICALLY OR IF YOU HAVE TO MANUALLY PULL THE DOOR OPEN, ITS LIKE IT SHUTS OFF OR ON. IF YOU HAVE TO OPEN IT MANUALLY INSIDE , YOU REALLY HAVE TO PUSH AGAINST THE DOOR HARD TO OPEN IT UP. WHEN YOU PULL IT MANUALLY IT PULLS EASIER, OUTSIDE, THAN IF YOU HAD THE AUTO TURNED OFF. BUT WE DON'T HAVE THE PROBLEM WITH IT POPPING OPEN WHILE DRIVING. JUST POPS OUT OF THE LATCH SOMETIMES WHEN IT DOES AUTO CLOSE AND IT BEEPS AND LETS YOU KNOW THE DOOR ISN'T COMPLETELY CLOSED. JUST STARTED HAVING THE PASSENGER SIDE STARTING TO CATCH A LITTLE BIT NOW, BUT IT DOES COMPLETELY RUN AUTOMATICALLY ONCE YOU GIVE IT A LITTLE HELP. HAVEN'T TAKEN IT IN BECAUSE THE WARRANTY IS DONE AND CANT AFFORD TO PAY POSSIBLY HUNDREDS TO FIX IT. *TR

OCCASIONALLY, THE POWER SLIDING DOOR ON THE DRIVERS SIDE CLOSES AND THEN REOPENS ABOUT 6-12" AND HAS TO BE CLOSED BY HAND. THERE HAVE BEEN SEVERAL TIMES WHEN THE SAME DOOR OPENS ALL THE WAY AND IT CAN'T BE CLOSED, EITHER BY POWER OR BY HAND. IT WILL REMAIN OPEN UNTIL IT GETS READY FOR YOU TO CLOSE IT. THE TIME FRAME VARIES BUT USUALLY 10-15 MINUTES. SEVERAL TIMES, WHILE DRIVING WITH ALL OF THE DOORS CLOSED AND LOCKED, THE SAME SLIDING DOOR WILL OPEN A COUPLE OF INCHES AND I HAVE TO STOP AND MANUALLY CLOSE IT. THE VAN HAS BEEN IN THE SHOP SEVERAL TIMES AND EACH OF THE DESCRIBED INCIDENTS STILL HAPPEN FROM TIME TO TIME. THE REPAIR TECHNICIANS CANNOT DUPLICATE THE PROBLEM SO NO CORRECTIVE ACTION CAN BE TAKEN. IT'S JUST A MATTER OF TIME BEFORE SOMEONE FALLS OUT OF THE VEHICLE WHILE IT IS MOVING AND IS EITHER SEVERELY INJURED OF KILLED. *TR

MY CAR WAS PARKED IN MY DRIVEWAY, NOT RUNNING, NO KEY IN THE IGNITION, AND HAD NOT BEEN DRIVEN SINCE THE PREVIOUS DAY. ONE OF THE KIDS WENT OUTSIDE TO PLAY AND CAME RUNNING BACK IN TO TELL US THE CAR WAS SMOKING. THERE WAS SMOKING COMING OUT FROM UNDER THE HOOD. MY BOYFRIEND QUICKLY GOT TO IT AND GOT THE BATTERY OUT AND FOUND THE SOURCE AND UNPLUGGED THE ELECTRICAL STABILITY CONTROL MODULE ( I BELIEVE IS WHAT HE CALLED IT) EITHER WAY, THE PLUG AND WIRES WERE FRIED. THE DEALERSHIP STATED THAT HAD WE NOT SEEN THIS IT WOULD HAVE CAUGHT FIRE. I CALLED THE KIA CORPORATE NUMBER AND THEY TOLD ME SORRY BUT ITS AN OUT OF POCKET EXPENSE, MY CAR IS NOT UNDER WARRANTY AND THERE ARE NO RECALLS. THIS IS NOT THE FIRST 07 KIA SEDONA TO HAVE THIS ISSUE BASED ON THE RESEARCH I HAVE DONE. AND HAD WE BEEN SLEEPING WHEN THIS HAPPENED MY HOUSE COULD HAVE CAUGHT FIRE. HAD THERE BEEN CHILDREN IN THIS AT THE TIME THEY COULD HAVE BEEN INJURED.

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.
