My Vehicle was stolen from my residential home. My window was buss out and they stole my vehicle. After over two weeks my vehicle was finally retrieved by the police and city of Milwaukee tow lot. I was told by financing company as well as police department to go get pictures of vehicle as reported from tow company that my vehicle was completely totaled out. I went and retrieved pictures seeing that my car was totaled. With this being said i don't have a vehicle for me or my children to be able to get to work and or school and daycare. I don't know what I'm going to do with trying to not jeopardize my job with getting to work. So I'm writing this so that KIA company can be held accountable for not recalling these vehicles and putting me and my children during this pandemic at risk of losing everything home, job and more.

2019 Kia Sorento experiences swaying at interstate speeds. Must continuously steer left and right to keep it in the lane. In light wind it is much worse. Kia did not find a problem. The vehicle has 3100 miles on it. When purchased it only had 16 miles on it.

In stationary position. Car off. The plastic covers on the bottom of the steering wheel broke off. The plastic connecting them did not match and is of poor design.
