On Friday May 12, 2000 my steering wheel began to shake very eraticallly. After making a three point turn and straighting the car out and proceeding forward, the steering wheel was clocked upside down and began to shake. As my fiance proceeded to pull over to the right you could hear a loud pop sound come front the front and in the steering column. After she pulled over she tried to turn the wheel to the left, you turn the wheel about a quarter turn and then another loud pop. The wheels would turn to the right but, as you turned the wheel to the left the tires wouldn't move. The steering wheel turn and pop but, the tires would not respond. I guess I'm very fortunate that my fiance and 2 year old son didn't get into an accident. I would appreciate any information and help you can give me. Thank you, Mr. Richard soto.

We have had repeated recalls. We own two Kia purchased at the same time. The dealership has made many attempts to repair the vehicles. They are as frustrated as we are. The cars have had similar but additional issues. They do not seem to hold an alignment. We have had to replace both sets of front tires. We have had multiple brakes renewed in the one year we own the vehicles. There have been electrical problems. We have had connectors and battery renewal. The defrosters do not adequately defrost the windows causing hazerdous and limited visibility. The door handle on one vehicle had to be replaced twice. The starters have been replaced several times. They both failed inspection recently because of serious emmissions failure. Fumes were coming into the passenger area from a corrroded tailpipe that is giving way at the seams. Kia says they have no knowledge of this. This occured in both cars. The tailpipes were replaced. The dealership says this ghas been an occurence before. Our warrenty is running out and we do not know what will fail next. Please advise us of a realistic course of action. Thank you. Ellen L. oppenheimer pleae note my dates are off as I do not have all the paper work however it can be obtained.
