Sedona

  • 198,000 miles
The contact owns a 2007 Kia Sedona. When attempting to drive the vehicle, the gear shifter failed to move out of the park position and the electronic stability control warning indicator illuminated. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic who diagnosed that the gear shifter needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The vehicle was not taken to a dealer. The manufacturer was notified of the failure and informed the contact that the VIN was not included in a recall. The approximate failure mileage was 198,000.

While driving the vehicle, you suddenly loose power. The ESC off light and engine light come on. You are not able to accelerate. It's like the pedal is not there. You could be going 50 mph and then suddenly drop down to 20 to 30 mph without warning. There is a few codes that come up: P2106 throttle actuator control system-forced limited power P2138. Throttle/pedal position sensor/switch "D"/"E" voltage correlation. There are other codes that came up before and it also caused these issues. This happens while you are driving. Sometimes you can tell its going to turn on the ESC light and engine light and going to loose power and sometimes it happens all of a sudden. When researching online about this problem, its a common problem with Kia especially the Sedonas.

Sedona 6-cyl

  • 79,000 miles
We went on a road trip from Ohio to Texas and the vehicle started making a sound we immediately pulled it over and all the lights (oil, engine, etc) came on. We had it towed to a Kia dealership and found out that the whole bottom of the vehicle was corroded. There was a hole in the the coolant line and all of the coolant leaked out of the car causing the vehicle to overheat and destroyed the engine. There was no warning about a problem with the coolant line. Now all of the lines need to be replaced because it is all corroded underneath the car. They are quoting over $20,000 of repair work for the vehicle. We have under 80,000 miles. We never had these problems on our 2002 Kia spectra that we still own. Kia is currently unwilling to repair or replace this defective vehicle.

Sedona

  • 18,000 miles
My 2007 Kia Sedona minivan has 18,000 miles and has two major issues. First, a grinding noise in the front end attributed by a mechanic to new front end bearings. Second, a check-engine code which is causing the rough idle based off of faulty O2 sensors. Both items were diagnosed by a Kia certified garage - gary rome Kia in enfield, ct. I don't believe front end bearings should fail on a 2007 vehicle. Also, there is a technical service bulletin for the O2 sensors. According to mechanics at gary rome Kia - both issues are "very common with these minivans."
