Third time I am having my seat belt buckle replaced due to airbag lamp being on. They just keep replacing faulty part with another faulty part, this third time, only took two days for light to come back on. I have also been told in the meantime my airbags are inactive. This problem needs to be addressed and recalled, not just replaced. I do not feel safe.

I have numerous complaints on my 2003 Kia sodona. I purchased the vechile in June of 2003, we have since taken the van in to the dealership for a variety of problems. The aircondtioner stop blowing cold air with in the first three months of owning it, this has been fixed. Paint has peeled off the front bumper, seat belt ratcheting system stopped working, engine mount needed replacing, tansmition needed adjusting three times, and the last problem was the vechile would lock when ever and where ever it felt the need to. I locked my self out of the car with my children inside many times. The dealship replaced a main panal inside the door. Despite, all the times I have taken it in, at least twice for every problem, the dealership refuses to give me a car, mind you I have two children to cart around all day. I am extrmemly peeved about this van.
