2016 Kia Sedona NHTSA Service Bulletins
Date Complaint Filed: 11/08/2016
Component(s): AIR BAGS | SEAT BELTS
Tl* the contact rented a 2017 (na) kia sedona. while driving approximately 35 mph, the contact rear eneded the preceding vehicle. the frontal air bags did not deploy and the seat belt did not restrain the driver. a police report was filed and there were no injuries. the vehicle was towed to a private impound lot and was not drivable. the manufacturer was not notified of the failure. the approximate failure mileage was 7,609.
Date Complaint Filed: 11/12/2016
Component(s): POWER TRAIN | VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL
Driving at 70 mph with cruise control on, experienced loud "bump" on smooth highway surface with sudden and total loss of engine speed. put vehicle in neutral and was able to restart engine. cruise control was not working at that time. cruise control was operative later in the day after engine stop and restart. took vehicle next day to dealer. dealer said they could find nothing wrong with vehicle.
Date Complaint Filed: 04/08/2016
Component(s): SEAT BELTS
Front seat belt unlatches and retracts when object accidentally slid off console between front seats and fell onto seatbelt locking mechanism. this occurred during a leftward turn. reproducible by dropping cell phone onto mechanism.
Date Complaint Filed: 06/25/2016
Component(s): STRUCTURE:BODY
On iihs website it mentions that kia reprogrammed the auto lock feature so that the doors would stay closed in a crash and reduce intrusion. however if someone is dropped if the lock is disengaged while the engine is running, perhaps while dropping off a passenger, the door does not lock again when driving. this could defeat the purpose of the auto lock feature.
Date Complaint Filed: 08/16/2016
Component(s): FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
When filling the gas tank to full. starting the car and driving it, the rpm's fluctuate drastically, and the car "bucks" at any speed (no particular speed, observed at a stop, accelerating, cruise control, 45 mph). once the gas level is less than full - around 7/8 of a tank, the van seems to drive ok. this has happened on 2 occasions. (2 fill ups to full, 1 additional fill up to 7/8 of a tank had no issue). the second fill up was the worst - the car completely shut off while making a turn at an intersection. happened again the same day, from a stop, accelerating to turn the car shut off.
Date Complaint Filed: 08/09/2016
Component(s): EXTERIOR LIGHTING
The low beam headlights are manufactured to a specification that gives very limited length of visibility making fast highway driving at night very dangerous. dealership said it was normal, manufacturer is looking into it. simply put they are by degrees pointed downward too early and this provides very limited visibility and very limited reaction time in the event of a deer or other road hazard - forcing you to use high beams at all times at highway speed at night to ensure reasonable visibility
Date Complaint Filed: 09/05/2016
Component(s): AIR BAGS | ELECTRICAL SYSTEM | SEATS
My mother and her friend were driving approx. 35 miles per hour when the right rear wheel went off the road causing them to go into the frying pan river in basalt, co. there was approx. 42.1 degree slope. my mother was the passenger. we retrieved her pictures and video. she was video taping with her cell phone at the time of the accident. the passenger window was down. she said, "oh [xxx]", and appeared to reach to remove her seatbelt. they went into the river. they were found at 4:30 pm with car submerged in water and both drowned. no damage to the car. the side airbags had gone off and the front windows were up with the airbags sticking out when they were found. the front airbags did not go off. my concern is that my mom knew she would get out but when she took a deep breath the airbags knocked her air out. and we know the windows were down but went up. if the electrical shorted out from being under water, why did the windows go up and not stay where they were, which was open. also, the drivers seat moved forward after going into the water. and we question if airbags went off to early. both the air bags deploying and windows going up impeded my mom getting out. the police report seems to question why the airbags went off also. there was a report that another kia sedona was driving down the freeway and all the doors flew open. i'm worried that we will start seeing more and more electrical problems with kia. information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u.s.c. 552(b)(6). *tr

Component(s): ENGINE | SERVICE BRAKES
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. at the time i thought i had done something wrong, but now with a similar thing happening with a different driver, and such extreme damage, there must be a bigger problem.
Date Complaint Filed: 11/21/2016
Component(s): VISIBILITY/WIPER
Since the lease from nemet kia started in june 2016 the exterior of windshield has had a film that smears the window and obstructs driver view in the rain. when dry the window is clear but in the rain the film becomes an issue. there wasnt much rain during the summer so i dealt with it hoping it would wear off through regular use of the wipers. i have also cleaned the glass numerous times with negative results. when the car came in for the first service in sept. 2016 the tech tried to remove the film but they could not address it properly (noted on work receipt) and the film is still there. during the heavy rains of the last few days the car is very difficult to drive due to the smeared windshield. the problem gets worse when driving at night in the rain. kia dealer kept car from october 11-14 2016 and attempted to clean window and verified the problem required replacement of windshield. as of november 21, 2016 the windshield has yet to be replaced. kia and dealer keep pushing back replacement date and the car is unsafe to drive. kia has been contacted and they assigned the issue case #k3296615.
