While driving down the road, the car started sputtering and smoking. There were no warning lights on the dash, or irregular readings. My son pulled over and flames were coming from underneath the vehicle. Upon immediate inspection, there was an oil trail in the road behind the vehicle and pieces of the rod and oil pan. They said it looked like the engine threw a rod, damaging the oil pan, and causing the fire. We are still awaiting an independent inspection and solution from Kia, but they-??re taking their time. Thankfully my son was able to exit the vehicle quickly and safely.

Passenger side back, sliding door will not close securely. The risk is mainly because my grandchildren ride in those seats and the door not securing and subsequent lack of auto door locks when gear shift is moved from park is not safe. When we use that door, the indicator light on the dash is lit and the dinging bells alerts us it is NOT secure. We have to push in on the back of the door to, hear the click, get it secured. Otherwise the indicator light stays lit AND the doors will NOT lock automatically as they should.

Our Kia Sedona van was stolen on the overnight hours of 10/18/2021 from our driveway. This has been a rampant issue in our area because, it seems, certain model year Kia vehicles have a vulnerability that makes it easy to steal in just a few minutes. Because of this theft, we were without a secondary vehicle until 11/8/2021 and we had to pay out of pocket for a rental during much of that time (once we realized we couldn't get by with just one vehicle). In order to minimize our losses, we purchased a used vehicle with similar mileage and year, but we were still out over $1500 and many hours of our time to deal with all of the issues that arose because of this. These particular vehicles NEED to be recalled and retrofitted with some sort of security, as thousands of families have had to deal with similar issues as us.

The rear passenger sliding door will open and close on it's own while moving and the only way to close completely is to close from the outside while pushing it closed. When using the button in the back it will close then open right up again and make a loud noise. The button above the windshield in from will cause it to close then open back up too while making a loud noise. It has to be closed from the outside by pushing on the door. There is nothing obstructing the door either. This VIN number was not part of the recall according to the nhtsa website. This has been ongoing for years, so there is no specific dates

Door grinds and will not shut properly. Gadgets say it-€™s shut but then once driving it beeps and does not turn off until you stop. So I do not know whether it is actually shut or not. Many forums say this is a known issue with Kia cars.

I was using my bluetooth and my radio and blue tooth stopped working. It shut off and would not turn back on. When I tried talking the people on the phone could not hear me and I could not hear them. When I shut off the bluetooth the person could hear me and I could hear them. If I shut off the car and turned it back on it still wouldn't work. After about 20 minutes it started working like it should again. This has happened twice.

Kia has had a minimal of 9 attempts to rectify my blinkers not working and when working, they did so incorrectly. The doors were also opening without command and sometimes the open door light indicates the doors are open when not. They have not been able to fix this. They have made it clear they wish to continue to do this and Kia executives lead mechanic is in agreement with me they should have recalled this vehicle after the first time it happened. The doors open when moving and not moving. I have plenty of video recordings to verify.
