Both lower control arms have gone at the same time...at 65,000 miles...which when I checked with repair shop is highly unusual that at this low miles one would go let alone both...he said it is a quality issue. Kia says its not covered...when went to get out of drivers side the door handle snapped off. An electrical problem with heater/air conditioner...took to Kia East syracuse, NY they said they don't make them any more because so many problems.
