All 4 doors on my Kia Sedona are now not opening from the outside. They stick really bad and it feels as if I pull any harder that that he handles will break off. I have 101K miles on the car so it is outside of its warranty. After looking online, this seems to be a huge issue with Kia's made around this same time. This is a huge safety concern because it is prohibiting me from entering or exiting the car and posses serious issues with safety of a child in the car
