While driving at 55mph 2 lane rual road check engine light came on then after min later ESC off light came on and all the sudden I lost all throttle and RPM gas petal to floor and would only cost at 20mph and less on incline almost rear ended due to loss of throttle with no notice to traffic behind me.. turned on emergency flashers found a place 10 miles down the road to pull off.. no cell service in rual area cranked veh back up and all lights were off started and throttled right for about a mile their was no rain snow just sunny day..have called Kia they said they have never heard of such since we have the covid.. I went online and see alot of complaints about this issue so I have no faith that Kia will fix it since all the reviews.. I had a throttle position sensor ordered it thru Kia which at first they said they could not sell the sensor only but the whole throttle body.. I had to refer them to a tsa bulletin and guess what they could order one at $40 compared to $350.. I replaced the part and it is still doing the same thing..frustrated with this it should be a recall since this is a ongoing issue with Kia and huanda veh till date from what I have read online.. if you wish to look at my veh to see the problem you are welcome to because its unsafe for me to drive 165,000 miles

The sliding doors do not properly latch. The door will close and then retract a little causing the door light to remain on. This occurs in both passenger and driver side sliding doors.

We can not turn on our vehicle. Everything works as far as the air conditioner and radio however, the vehicle will not start. After you check the steering wheel and it's position and turn the key on to change between park and neutral, sometimes it will start. Right now we can not find a solution to why it will start and then you can not put it back in park. This is all while the vehicle is stationary.

I had a tire sidewall separation. I bought four new tires and this is the second one that came apart.

I was driving about 40-50 mph on a route road when the hood very suddenly and without any warning flipped back smashing the windshield, forcing me to move to the side of the road as soon as possible.

I have had issues with the manual sliding doors on my Sedona. Many times the doors will not latch and lock so it's very frustrating. I do not feel safe with my kids in the back because I'm afraid the doors are not locked properly. Also during the winter the manual sliding doors are frozen shut and it's been like that from the day O purchased the van.

TL- the contact owns a 2008 Kia Sedona. The contact stated the speedometer does not accurately log miles and speed. The vehicle registers 3 miles higher then normal. The vehicle door's are also not properly opening and closing. Intermittently the contact can hear a loud electrical grinding noise coming from both rear driver and passenger doors. The contact took his vehicle to the dealership for diagnostic test. The dealer was unable to properly repair the vehicle. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure. The vehicle was not repaired. The failure mileage was 4,000.

The first time this incident happened, I was driving my 2008 Kia Sedona van on a level street at approximately 30mph. The van started accelerating at a fast speed and the brakes would not work. Fortunately, there were no cars coming the other way and no people out walking. I was not able to stop at the stop sign and I put on my emergency brake and turned off the van. The second incident occurred while I was driving up a hill. The van started accelerating and I was not able to use my brakes. This time I put the van in neutral and was able to regain control of the van. I took the van to my mechanic and they did not find any problem with the brakes or anything else. My friend also experienced a similar incident with her newer model Kia Sedona and uses my same mechanic and found nothing wrong. Her incident happened before my first episode in June. Today, I was driving my daughter to work and the same thing happened as I was driving up a slight elevated street. I was not able to use the brakes and shifted into neutral. I was able to slow the engine and get her to work. I have five children and I have had at least one of them with me when each of these incidences has occurred. I called the Kia dealer today and they told me to call Monday. This is a very scary situation and I fear serious injury may occur. I was on residential streets when all three episodes occurred and did not have my cruise control on as noted from other Kia owners who have experienced this on the highway.

1) few times on different occasions lost acceleration pedal (sort) no RPM response, only idles, . incidents recorded on "Kia black box so far four (4) time.. no any explanation, repairs or what to do with repeatable problems from Kia service..2) very lately while driving in traffic at speed approximately 40 mph all suddenly car completely shot down with loosing steering power, brakes otherwise car totally disabled.. all lights on dashboard "on".... again Kia service didn't detect (probably box not programmed for that event).. problems not diagnosed, no any repairs, replacements (computer chips?).. car not safe for driving on public roads considering 1) my safety and 2) public safety on highways... despite promises Kia..service is contacting me or providing evaluation.... I am afraid to use that car safely... I was approached by man who had similar problems on Kia optima and also was left without answer... updated 01/20/11
