2015 Kia Sedona complaints

The component that is failing in the Kia is the headlighs. It has been inspected by Kia of Orange Park and is determined to need replacement of left and right headlight assemblies. It is available for further inspection but Kia wants more money than I can afford to fix it, so I will be finding another mechanic soon. While traveling home with five others after dark the headlights just went out on a very dark highway. Before we could safely pull over they came back on. We proceeded to continue home and the lights randomly went completely out and back on again for the entire journey. I have not driven the Kia at night since. With the grace of God there was no accident so the police and insurance agency were not involved; only the Kia dealer thus far has inspected the kia. There is an attached report. There were no warning lights, lamps or messages, or symptoms prior to this headlight failure. This happened on Mother's Day 2023. I have no assessment of the cause, with the exception of a full diagnostic of the vehicle which I have paid Kia of Orange Park for, in full. A report is attached or available from the dealership. I am adamant that this issue is a serious, life threatening issue that left six people in terrorized silence for a shaky forty five minute ride home. I am grateful that none of the passengers or anybody in any other vehicle were hurt or injured and I will not stop until a full national recall is made on this problem.

While driving at night the HEADLIGHTS TURN OFF without cause or warning spotaneiusly. This is a great safety risk to all, lights turning off while driving on a dark road puts me and those around me in danger. This issue has not been confirmed but i did notice on the web that this is not an isolated incident others have experienced lights turning off at night as well. Vehicle is still in my possession.

2015 KIA SEDONA EX WITH 36,600+ MILES HAD CRITICAL ENGINE FAILURE. THE KIA SEDONA WAS PURCHASED WITH 32,470 ON 1/042021. THE ENGINE SEIZED ON APRIL 15 2023 WHILE DRIVING TO A RELIGIOUS MEETING. FORTUNATELY WHEN THE ENGINE FAILED I WAS ABLE TO MANEUVER TO A PARKING SPOT THAT WAS OPEN AS THE VEHICLE CAME TO A STOP. INITIALLY I THOUGHT IT WAS THE BATTERY AND I TOOK THE NEXT DAY TO CHANGE THE BATTERY BUT THE ENGINE WOULD NOT CRANK OVER OR START. THE SEDONA WAS TOWED TO AN INDEPENDENT REPAIR SHOP THAT WAS AFFILIATED WITH THE WARRANTY COMPANY ON APRIL 17 AFTER I CALLED FOR ROADSIDE ASSISTANCE THROUGH THE WARRANTY COMPANY. THE ENGINE IS INSPECTED AND TAKEN APART TO SEE THE CAUSE OF THE ENGINE FAILURE. THE MECHANIC/REPAIR SHOP NOTIFIES THE WARRANTY COMPANY THAT ENGINE HAD SEIZED AND THE WARRANTY COMPANY ORDERS AN INSPECTION. I WAS AUTHORIZED TO ATTAIN A RENTAL CAR ON THE APRIL 24 UNTIL THE INSPECTION WAS COMPLETED. I WAITED FOR THE THE WARRANTY COMPANY TO SEND AN INSPECTOR THROUGHOUT THAT WEEK. ON APRIL 28 I COMMUNICATED WITH THE MECHANIC/REPAIR SHOP AS TO THE STATUS OF THE MY VEHICLE AND THE RESULTS OF THE INSPECTION. I WAS TOLD THAT THE ENGINE FAILED BECAUSE OF THE CRANK SHAFT AND PISTON RODS AND BEARINGS SEIZING/BREAKING. I WAS THEN TOLD THAT THIS PROBLEM WAS AN ISSUE THAT MANY OTHER KIAS AND HYUNDAIS WERE HAVING WITH THEIR ENGINES, AND THAT ENGINE PARTS WERE NOT AVAILABLE AND THAT ENGINES WERE ALSO NOT AVAILABLE DUE TO THE NUMBER OF FAILURES THAT THE MANUFACTURER IS CURRENTLY WOR

I have a 2015 season kia. I have a security problem. the passenger seat does not see a person, the sensor is faulty.

Took our 2015 Kia Sedona for an oil change and checkup due to the engine overheating multiple times. They did the oil change at about 96k miles and said nothing was wrong with the engine. That if anything were to happen then just bring it back in. We went on a trip to Georgia from Miami, we got stranded there because the engine again started overheating. We got the car back and took it to Kia in Doral. Service department stated that the head was damaged. Sales manager says it needed a new engine that would cost us 7500 to replace. We owe 7200 on the vehicle. That would put us at 14k dollars when it was not our fault that the engine failed at 96k miles. The sales manager at Doral Kia promised that they would take care of the 7200 loan if we bought a New Kia Carnival once they arrive in the lot. We took our Kia Sedona and left it there while we waited a week for the Kia Carnival to arrive. We finally get a call and we walk in to see it. Car states on window sticker MSRP $36k. We wait for them to bring the financing paper work and they put the cars MSRP AT $51k. Very upsetting what we encountered. Turns out that the scammers will only pay our loan off if we pay their markup of $51k for the new van. After expressing how upset we were for having waited our time, they try to say that the only way they could sell the New Kia Carnival to us at MSRP of $36k is if we pay the 7200 that we owe and we leave our Kia Sedona to them as trade in for ZERO dollars. Need this issue resolved asap

Last Thursday, 5 days into the new year I was coming back from the chiropractor and the grocery store , approximately 15 miles from my home. I got home and parked my van outside (usually park in the garage but would be leaving within the hour so didn't want to open the garage door and let the heat out). I shut the van off and carried groceries inside. Long story short I received a call from my husband that the neighbor called to say there was smoke next to our deck and I looked out the window and my kia was on fire! Rear end just engulfed in flames. I have never had any issues with my van ever. She ran great, had maybe 2 dings in her but was not torn up or abused. My husband is a mechanic and changed oil and spark plugs and we treated her good! It was a very sad day. Sorry to ramble on. You may contact me if you have any questions. I do screen calls for #s I don't know so please leave a voice-mail or contact via email with a # and extention if preferred. I attached photos below. Also have a police report for insurance purposes. Thank you for taking time to read this!

Car overheats. Dealership confirms Blown head gasket . Kia won’t cover repairs. Van is under 100k miles

My car a kia sedona, 2015, 85000 miles, was inspected by Matthews Kia on 10/7. It was RECOMMENDED that I have spark plugs and coils replaced. I was NOT told of the consequences or the urgency of this repair if I declined this repair. The check engine light was not on and it was running fine! THEY LET ME DRIVE IT HOME WITHOUT ANY WARNINGS. I went to bring it to a mechanic on 11/8 to have a second opinion and have the work done if they agreed with the diagnosis. That is when I was told it was a blown head gasket and the mechanic said there was nothing I did to cause this, I was able to drive it home, but i drove it directly to the dealership. They are supposed to last the lifetime of the car. It is only when I drove it 1 MILE from that mechanic to kia when it started to overheat, and The check engine light came on. When Kia inspected it and confirmed it was a blown head gasket and quoted me for a new engine. My safety was at risk because I have 2 children and when the engine went that is when the engine light came on and we almost got into an accident because I lost power.

The contact owns a 2015 Kia Sedona. The contact stated while starting the vehicle, it would not start. The contact was able to change the battery and the vehicle was able to restart. The vehicle was taken to the dealer, and while the vehicle was at the dealer, it caught on fire. The dealer stated that the vehicle had a short circuit that caused the vehicle to catch on fire. The manufacturer was contacted, and a case was filed. The failure mileage was 80,000.

There is a strong gasoline smell inside and outside of the vehicle. This is a fire risk and breathing hazard. I took the vehicle to a mechanic to be diagnosed/repaired on 10/13/2022. The mechanic confirmed there was a leak and stated that he had never seen a leak in this area of the vehicle before. He stated based on where it was that he believes it is a manufacturer defect. The fuel line was replaced at the cost of $699.16. However, the gasoline smell inside and outside of the vehicle remains. I contacted Kia Customer Service on 10/17/2022 and they said there were no recalls associated with this issue and I was on my own for getting it repaired. There have been no warning lights/indications related to this ongoing safety issue. A recall was issued for the 2011-2012 Kia Sedona for the same reason. In that recall (SC188), the fuel rails are to be replaced.

The headlights blink on and off and keep going out and have to be changed often.

I have already submitted a claim regarding my passenger side middle seat not locking into the track and having a significant safety concern. On July 1st my sister in law was sitting in the back (middle drivers side captains chair this time) while driving and attempted to move the seat forward slightly to make more room in the back. After she pulled up the lever the seat would not latch onto the track and started to slide back and forth freely. I had to pull over slowly so she would slam forward and after many unsuccessful attempts finally was able to get the seat to stay in a fixed position so we could continue driving. Once again this is a huge safety concern for the vehicle and has now happened on both sides. We cannot use our passenger side captains chair at all because of this issue.

We were driving and pulled over to a grocery store and noticed that the dash lights were going crazy and then the cabin started to fill with a little smoke and then the car shut off. The doors would not open and the car had no power at all. We were finally to get us and our kids out. I popped the hood and noticed a small fire next to the ground wire. The engine had caught fire. I put out the fire. There is another set of recalls on Kia's about the engines and the car catching on fire. The Kia dealer said that there is not a recall on this car.

In 2017 my Sedona was leaking water In the rear well. South Austin Kia accused my 135 lb dog of peeing in the rear well. He will not fit back there. After many attempts to get them to fix it and contacting corporate I was told "if I can prove it is leaking they will try to fix it". I went through a carwash climbed into the back and videotaped it. Took it back to Kia of South Austin and the recrimped the well. When I got my van back they had failed to reinstall the carpet and bolts. Two months ago I took my van to Firestone for its oil change. 1000 miles into it my check engine light came on. We read the code and it came up no oil. We added oil, took it to Firestone and there is no evidence of an oil leak. The check engine light stayed off until last night. It threw 138 codes. Never ever seen so many codes. I'm replacing this van in a couple of weeks. We are limping it. I get sever panic attacks thinking about going back to Kia of South Austin for the treatment that has occured.

The passenger side second row outside seat is not latching into place appropriately and thus slides forward and back in the track upon breaking or accelerating. We did not know it became faulty until my 5 year old was seated while driving and upon vehicle breaking his chair flew forward in the track and jolted him. He nearly face planted into the front seat, and if we were driving any faster and needed to suddenly stop for something to avoid collision, or god forbid, been in an accident, I have no doubt he would have been. My husband has been attempting to find the exact reason but he can’t tell yet if it is some sort of spring mechanism failure or if there is another explanation. That seat is 100% not safe for use until it is fixed and continues to slide back and forth in the track whether or not it is occupied. The issue is available for inspection upon request, however my husband has to take the track off in order to remove the chair so it isn’t flying all over when driving.

The brake lights went out. The bulbs were replaced. The fuse was replace and there still no lights. The top led brake light works, but lower lights on each side are out. I don't know if the brake switch is the problem when the upper led works. I have researched the issue and discovered that this is a xommon kia issue with many models. When a Google search is conducted for "kia no brake lights it comes up with other people that have the same issue with multiple models."

Around January of last year, with no warning at all, no lights on the dash. Suddenly while driving on my way home (luckily I had just gotten off the highway) my van started making a knocking noise and I decided I was going to try and pull over safely once I heard the noise, when all of a sudden the engine just stops. There was no power at all, I barely got out of the way of other traffic as there was no shoulder on this street. This was very scary and I had my child in the car. I took my car to the Kia dealer and even though my car only had about 90k miles on it and was taken care of very well, they refused to replace the engine. I paid 8k to have an engine placed because I still owe the bank money on this car. So many people are having issue with Kia and its not right that they wont help.

In December 2021, I reported an issue with the driver-side airbag light being on that has yet to be addressed even after working with KIA customer service. In January 2022, the PASSENGER side airbag light is blinking. This has been reported to KIA as well.

The contact owns a 2015 Kia Sedona. The contact previously received notification of NHTSA Campaign Number: 18V338000 (Structure, Electrical System). The contact took the vehicle to the dealer and was informed that the passenger’s side door would be repaired but not the driver’s side door. After the repair, the contact stated that the driver’s side sliding door failed to latch as the driver’s side sliding door indicator warning light illuminated. The contact stated that the ABS warning light was illuminated. The contact had taken the vehicle back to the dealer where he was informed that the braking system was operating as needed; however, a faulty sensor had caused the warning light to illuminate. The dealer acknowledged the failure with the sliding door; however, the dealer informed him that parts for the repair were not available. Recently, the contact was made aware of an article about a recall on KIA vehicles with a risk of catching fire due to defective wiring in the ABS module. The manufacturer had yet to be notified of the failure. The vehicle had yet to be repaired. The failure mileage was approximately 38,000.

There have been several times recently when both of the headlights flicker on and off while driving or while parked over the past 2 weeks. Most of the time it seems to happen when using the turn signal, but not always. Most times it has only flickered off for a second and it has happened for as long as several seconds until the driver could quickly turn the lights off and back on again for them to work. This is obviously a safety hazard when driving at night. When the lights flicker, the park lights will stay on.

2015 Kia Sedona driver's side airbag light is on intermittently. Dealer states airbag under seat is malfunctioning and cost to replace is greater than $1000. Vehicle has not been involved in an accident and this is original equipment. This is a safety risk because the airbag may not function properly in the event of a crash.

The car odometer was about 120,000 highway miles. After run with the cruise control for about a 386 miles I stop the car in Angola service station and been there for about 12 minutes with the car off the car got on fire. The electric system shut down immediately and the hood didn't open at all, rear doors didn't open electrical way just manually and the back door get completely sealed.

2015 KIA SEDONA. CONSUMER WRITES SEEKING REIMBURSEMENT FOR VEHICLE REPAIRS MADE RELATED TO SAFETY RECALL. THE CONSUMER REQUESTED TO BE REIMBURSED FOR THE POWER SLDING DOOR LATCHING FAILURE REPAIRS.

When using the indicator to signal left, the signal would occasionally not respond or signal right. after jiggling, it will signal correctly. this was not a one-time occurrence and getting uncomfortable

The contact owns a 2015 Kia Sedona. The contact stated while driving at various speeds, the vehicle was bouncing. There was no warning light illuminated. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic and the contact was informed that the shocks were defective. The vehicle was taken to an unknown local dealer. The vehicle was not diagnosed nor repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 89,000.

We bought our 2015 Kia Sedona earlier this year (2021) and are having issues with the left blinker, the sliding doors and the backup camera. With the blinker, it doesn't always activate when you plus the lever down. sometimes you have to push it real hard. Other times you push the lever down to turn left but the right blinker comes on instead. With the doors, the rear left door doesn't always click shut all the way. It makes a grinding sound and then the back of the door unhinges. Sometimes it closes all the way only to unhinge while I am driving, sometimes 55+mph in the middle of a highway. The rear right door will not always respond to any of the automatic button commands. Once in a while it will close or open with the buttons. Other times it will partially close before reopening again. And even other times it just beeps and will not move. We have checked numerous times to make sure there are no obstructions and there aren't. With the backup camera, it is just very blurry and you cannot really tell what you are looking at other than shadows. We have wiped it down and it has done nothing to fix the issue. KIA! PLEASE HELP WITH THESE ISSUES!!!!!

When pushing the turn signal down while the vehicle is in motion to go left, it either doesn’t blink or switches to the right blinker. This nearly caused an accident the other day when a car nearly hit the back of my van with my 6 kids in it, because the left blinker wouldn’t come on and then switched to blinking right. There are numerous other reports on here of similar incidents and unfortunately it looks like nothing will be done until it causes a fatality. My car is at the dealership now and I will forward the invoice if they fix it. You can go to the Kia Forum and find 34 different posts on the same issue.

THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT AND PRESSURE OIL LIGHT KEEP ON AND OFF WHILE DRIVING. THIS PROBLEM HAS BEEN RECALLED ON THE KIA SPORTAGE. (NHTSA RECALL NUMBER: 19V101).

I HAVE BEEN HAVING ISSUES WITH ALL MY AUTOMATED POWER DOORS TO MY 2015 KIA SEDONA SXL. BOTH SLIDING DOORS HAVE BEEN STAYING UNLATCHED AND OPEN ON THEIR OWN WHILE IN VEHICLE IS IN MOTION AND KIA EXTENDED MY WARRANTY TO FIX IT BUT MY PROBLEM IS THAT AT THE SAME TIME THIS ALL STARTED HAPPENING MY TAILGATE DOOR LATCH ALSO WENT BAD AND IT STAYS OPEN AND OPENS WHILE THE VEHICLE IS IN MOTION AS WELL. I'VE TRIED TO GET ANSWERS AND ALSO TRIED TO HAVE KIA HELP ME FIX THIS PROBLEM, BUT IT'S WAY TO BIG OF A COINCIDENCE THAT MY TAILGATE MALFUNCTIONED AT THE EXACT SAME TIME AS THE PASSENGER AND DRIVER SIDE SLIDING DOORS. IT'S BEEN ONGOING SINCE FEBRUARY 2021. I HAVE READ IN THE KIA FORUMS THAT I'M NOT THE ONLY KIA SEDONA OWNER THAT IS HAVING THE EXACT ISSUES. THIS IS NOT AN ISOLATED PROBLEM. IT IS VERY DANGEROUS AND I'M NOT HAPPY AT ALL.

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.

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.

DIVING DOWN THE HIGHWAY AND THE ENGINE STALLED OUT OF NOWHERE.

OUR 2015 KIA SECOND MINIVAN OVERHEATED REPEATEDLY IN 2020 FOR UNKNOWN REASONS RESULTING IN A TOTAL ENGINE FAILURE AND COMPLETE LOSS OF VALUE. AFTER LEAVING A HIGHWAY, THE MINIVAN OVERHEATED, RESULTING IN A BLINKING ENGINE LIGHT. IT WAS QUICKLY PARKED AND LATER DRIVEN TO A MECHANIC, WHO COULD NOT REPLICATE THE PROBLEM. AFTER A PERIOD OF OPERATION AT NORMAL TEMPERATURES, IT BEGAN TO MISFIRE. NO WARNING LIGHTS APPEARED PRIOR TO OR DURING THESE MISFIRES. NONETHELESS, WE HAD THE STARTER COILS REPLACED BASED ON A REPAIR CODE. AFTER ANOTHER PERIOD OF NORMAL OPERATION, IT AGAIN BEGAN TO MISFIRE AND OVERHEATED WITHOUT TRIGGERING ANY WARNING LIGHTS. WE DROVE IT IMMEDIATELY TO OUR MECHANIC, WHO DETERMINED THAT THE HEAD GASKET WAS BLOWN. A KIA DEALER TO WHICH WE TOWED THE CAR CONFIRMED THIS ASSESSMENT AND REPORTED IT NEEDED A $6K NEW ENGINE THAT WOULD COST $3K TO INSTALL. (NEITHER WE NOR OUR INDEPENDENT MECHANIC COULD LOCATE A USED ENGINE FOR LESS THAN $4K.) IN ITS CURRENT STATE, THE DEALER ESTIMATES THAT THE 5 YEAR OLD MINIVAN'S TRADE-IN VALUE IS $500. KIA REGIONAL IS UNABLE TO CONFIRM THAT A REPLACEMENT ENGINE IS AVAILABLE AND THEIR REPRESENTATIVE REPORTED THAT IT IS REMANUFACTURING THESE ENGINES AND MAY NEED TO WAIT FOR PARTS TO BE CREATED AND SHIPPED FROM SOUTH KOREA. THE 2015 SEDONA ENGINE IS OF THE SAME TYPE (KIA LAMBDA II 3.3L V6 GASOLINE DIRECT INJECTION) INCLUDED IN VEHICLES THAT WERE THE SUBJECT OF THE RECENT ENGINE FIRE LAWSUIT (ANDREA SMOLEK V. HYUNDAI MOTORS AMERICA AND KIA

BLINKER MALFUNCTION. WHEN BLINKER SWITCH TO LEFT TURN INDICATOR, IT WILL INTERMITTENTLY FLASH TO THE RIGHT WHILE VEHICLE IS IN MOTION AND STOPPED. THIS HAS NUMEROUSLY TIMES CAUSED PEOPLE AROUND ME TO MOVE IN WRONG DIRECTION. IT IS COMMONLY REPORTED ONLINE. PLEASE FORCE RECALL.

ON 2015 MODEL KIA SEDONAS THE SLIDING DOOR MOTORS MAY BECOME FAULTY AND CAUSE THE SLIDING DOORS TO NOT CLOSE ALL THE WAY. WHEN YOU PUSH THE BUTTON TO CLOSE THE DOOR IT GETS ALMOST CLOSED AND THEN MAKES A LOUD GRINDING NOISE FOLLOWED BY A BEEP IN THE CABIN AND A NOTIFICATION ON THE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER LETTING YOU KNOW THAT THE DOOR DID NOT FULLY CLOSE. IF YOU DRIVE WITH THE DOOR IN THIS STATE IT IS NOT FULLY LATCHED AND PRESENTS A SAFETY ISSUE AS THE DOOR COULD OPEN WHILE DRIVING OR IN THE CASE OF IMPACT. THE TSB IS ATTACHED TO THIS CASE.

WE HAVE HAD OUR 2015 KIA SEDONA MINIVAN FOR ABOUT ALMOST 3 YEARS NOW. WE WENT IN TO OUR LOCAL KIA DEALER SINCE THE STEERING WHEEL WASN'T CENTERING CORRECTLY, SO THEY GAVE US A WHEEL ALIGNMENT. SHORTLY AFTER WE REALIZED THE ALIGNMENT DID NOT HELP AND IT WAS THE TIRES WITH THE MAIN PROBLEM. THE REASON I MENTIONED ALL OF THAT IS BECAUSE SHORTLY AFTER, OUR TURN SIGNAL STARTED ACTING STRANGELY. WHENEVER WE PUSHED IT IN EITHER DIRECTION WITH THE AUTOMATIC HEADLIGHT SETTING ON, IT AUTOMATICALLY TURNED ON THE PARKING LIGHTS (EVEN IN THE MIDDLE OF THE NIGHT). SOMETIMES IT WOULD NOT DO IT WHEN YOU USED THE TURN SIGNAL, BUT WHEN YOU TURNED THE STEERING WHEEL BACK AROUND AND TURNED OFF THE TURN SIGNAL AND THE PARKING LIGHTS SYMBOL WOULD POP UP ON THE SCREEN. EVER SINCE WE GOT THE TIRES REPLACED AND THE WHEEL ALIGNMENT, OUR TURN SIGNAL SEEMED TO HAVE MUCH LESS OF A DURATION WHEN TAKING TURNS. RIGHT WHEN YOU TURNED THE STEERING WHEEL BACK TO ITS NORMAL POSITION IN THE MIDDLE OF MAKING THE TURN IT STARTS TO SHUT OFF. WE TRIED TO BE MORE GENTLE WITH THE TURN SIGNAL AND STEERING WHEEL AND IT IMPROVED A LITTLE BIT, BUT THE PARKING LIGHTS WERE STILL POPPING ON ONCE IN A WHILE. A FEW MONTHS AGO WE FINALLY DECIDED TO FULLY SHUT OFF THE AUTOMATIC HEADLIGHTS AND JUST DO IT MANUALLY. WE FEEL MORE SECURE DRIVING THE VEHICLE WITH THE AUTOMATIC HEADLIGHTS ON FOR SAFETY REASONS BUT WITH THE WHOLE PARKING LIGHT GLITCH IT DOESN'T MAKE IT ANY SAFER. ALSO TODAY WE RECENTLY TESTED THE AUTOMATIC HEADLIGHTS AG

LEFT TURN SIGNAL INTERMITTENTLY ACTIVATES THE RIGHT SIDE LIGHTS WHEN PRESSED. OTHER TIMES IT DOES NOT ACTIVATE THE LIGHT AT ALL. IN EITHER CASE, THE SIGNAL ARM MUST BE GIGGLED BACK AND FORTH TO GET IT TO ACTIVATE CORRECTLY.

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.

OVER THE PAST COUPLE OF MONTHS OUR LEFT TURN SIGNAL BEGAN ACTING UP. YOU WOULD TURN IT ON, AND IT WOULD EITHER SHOW NOTHING, OR SHOW THE RIGHT TURN SIGNAL ON. YOU WOULD HAVE TO TURN IT OFF AND ON SEVERAL TIMES TO GET IT TO WORK CORRECTLY. WE HAVE TAKEN IT IN FOR REPAIRS AND WAS TOLD IT NEEDED A NEW SWITCH. WE HAVE OWNED SEVERAL VEHICLES OVER THE PAST 35 YEARS AND NONE OF THEM HAD THIS ISSUE, AND MANY WERE DRIVEN NEARLY 200,000 MILES OR MORE. THIS ALL OCCURRED WHILE NORMAL OPERATION/DRIVING OF THE VEHICLE.

MY FAMILY AND I WERE COMING BACK FROM VACATION AND THE ENGINE THREW A ROD AND SHUT OFF GOING 70MPH DOWN THE ROAD. I HAD THE CAR TOWED TO A KIA DEALER NEAR MY HOUSE. THEY INDICATED I NEED A NEW ENGINE AT A COST OF $8,400. THE VAN IS WORTH APPROXIMATELY $11K. I CALLED KIA CONSUMER SUPPORT AND OPENED A CASE TO SEE IF THEY WOULD GIVE GOODWILL SINCE IT IS TIMED OUT OF WARRANTY. IT IS THREE MONTHS OUT OF WARRANTY BUT 10K UNDER THE MILEAGE PORTION WARRANTY. SINCE I AM THE SECOND OWNER THE 10 YEAR/100,000 MILE POWERTRAIN WARRANTY DECREASED TO 5 YEAR/60,000 MILES. KIA ASKED FOR ALL MY RECEIPTS WHICH I PROVIDED INDICATING I HAVE CHANGED THE OIL, PUT NEW TIRES ON, AND REPLACED THE BRAKES. THIS IS ALL THAT HAS BEEN REQUIRED SINCE WE ONLY HAVE 50K MILES. KIA STATED THAT AFTER REVIEWING MY CASE THEY WOULD NOT BE ABLE TO OFFER ANY GOODWILL BECAUSE MY RECORDS AREN'T UP DO DATE. I TOLD THEM I KEPT MY OWN RECORDS, WHICH I GAVE TO THEM, BUT THEY WEREN'T WILLING TO LISTEN TO ME. I WAS VERY SURPRISED HOW RUDE THEY WERE TO ME DURING THIS WHOLE PROCESS.

MY 2015 KIA SEDONA SX-L HAS DEVELOPED A RANDOM ISSUE WHEN THE LEFT TURN SIGNAL FUNCTION IS ACTUATED (AND NOT THE RIGHT). SYMPTOMS INCLUDE THE LEFT SIGNAL NOT OPERATING AT ALL, OR WHEN THE LEFT SIGNAL IS DEPRESSED BUT THE RIGHT SIGNAL BLINKS RAPIDLY THREE TIMES INSTEAD BEFORE BLINKING THE LEFT SIGNAL ONCE. THE ISSUE ONLY SURFACESS MAYBE 10 TO 20% OF THE TIME AND IS DIFFICULT TO REPRODUCE ON DEMAND. THIS DEFECT POSES AS A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE. OTHERS HAVE COMMENTED EXPERIENCING VARIATIONS OF THIS PROBLEM: HTTPS://WWW.KIA-FORUMS.COM/THREADS/TURN-SIGNAL-ISSUES.333572/

FRONT PASSENGER SEAT OCCUPANT LIGHT DOES NOT GO OUT NOW WITH ADULT ON SEAT.FOLLOWED STEPS IN OWNERS MANUAL, DIDNT RESET SO NO FRONT PASS, AIRBAG

REAR SLIDING DOORS DO NOT FULLY CLOSE AND MAKE LOUD GRINDING NOISE. THE ONLY WAY TO SHUT THEM IS TO MANUALLY PUSH IT CLOSED.

MY HEAD LIGHTS BLINKED THREE TIMES THEN WENT OUT ON LOW SETTING, HIGH BEAMS WORK ONLY. BULBS HAVE BEEN REPLACED FOUR TIMES AND AFTER ABOUT A MONTH THEY BLINK AND THEN GO OUT- THIS HAS HAPPENED EACH TIME WHILE DRIVING AT NIGHT TIME ON WAY HOME FROM WORK WITH MY CHILDREN IN THE CAR AND THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE. ESPECIALLY WHEN SEEING HOW MANY FORUMS ARE ONLINE ABOUT THIS ISSUE WITH KIAS. ALL TIMES I HAVE BEEN ON BACK COUNTRY ROADS GOING HOME FROM WORK AT 11 PM.

SOMETIMES, THE DRIVER SIDE SLIDING DOOR WILL NOT SHUT ALL THE WAY. IT MAKES A GRINDING / CLICKING SOUND AND THEN OPENS BACK UP AUTOMATICALLY. THIS HAPPENS WHEN THE VEHICLE IS STATIONARY IN PARK.

SLIDING DOOR DOES NOT PROPERLY CLOSE ALL THE TIME. I HAVE TO CLOSE THE DOOR BY HAND. I'VE BROUGHT THIS CAR TO THE DEALERSHIP SEVERAL TIMES AND THEY SAID IT WAS FIXED BUT IT ISN'T.

WHEN IN MOTION, AT TIMES, WHEN THE LEFT TURN SIGNAL IS CLICKED INTO PLACE TO INDICATE A LEFT TURN OR MOVEMENT TO THE LEFT LANE, THE RIGHT TURN SIGNAL WILL BLINK INSTEAD. THIS CAUSES VERY DANGEROUS DRIVING CONDITIONS

BOTH SLIDING DOORS NOT CLOSING PROPERLY...MAKING A LIT OF GRINDING NOISE..

18V338000 RECALL / MANUFACTURER RECALL NUMBERSC175 NHTSA RECALL NUMBER19V109' DOOR WILL NOT AUTOMATICALLY OPEN BACK UP, HAS SHUT ON MY CHILDREN. FRONT PASSENGER AIRBAG HAS ELECTRICAL PROBLEM.

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.
