problem #1

Sorento

  • 16,650 miles
Vehicle ignited from rear left tail light. It was not running nor were the keys in the ignition. Upon contacting Kia, they asked for photos of the damaged vehicle to submit to engineers. The engineers said that the fire didn't have anything to do with a brake light switch recall and offered no other explanation to what started the fire. The vehicle was just sitting in the driveway.
