One day, driving down the interstate in 2017. My husband rolled down the driver's side window. While going 60mph, the door opened. After that, the door would not open from the inside or outside.. we took it upon ourselves to try to fix it, and were able to fix the mechanism that allows us to open from the inside, but it still will not open from the outside.

While coasting into a parking spot my car lurched forward at a high rate of speed into a retaining wall. Kia is denying any responsibility. I am currently awaiting word from my body shop as to if the car will be totaled or not. If it is fixable I am very frightened to continue driving it. I am seeing numerous complaints about this issue and nothing is being done about it.
