general problems of the 2006 Kia Motor Sedona

The contact owns a 2006 kia Sedona. The contact stated that there had been several failures that progressed before any notification of the three recalls: the headlamps shorted and were replaced 27 times, the hatch failed to secure when being opened and had to remain closed due to the failure, and, while driving highway speeds, the lower control arms fractured on the front driver's side. The vehicle was towed to a mechanic who replaced the parts. The contact was uncertain of when the recall repairs would be completed for NHTSA campaign numbers: 16v389000 (latches/locks/linkages), 09v130000 (exterior lighting), and 16v387000 (suspension). The contact received notification after experiencing the failures. The failure mileage was not available. Parts distribution disconnect.

Both headlamps out at same time.

The electrical system has shorts and harness issues all over. You had a recent recall, but not involving 2006 Sedonas only 2007. Our vehicle has same issue as found in the recent recall. The airbag light is on and I have never had an accident. The lighting is also affected due to the wiring harness. I have one blinker I constantly replace and same with one front head lamp. I have seen other complaints of the same thing with the same exact vehicle.

Stop lamp switch defective. Received recall notice. Tried for 2 months to have defect repaired, but manufacturer does not have repair parts available, so no repair can take place. Safety recall states car is not safe to drive and defect may cause a crash. Given the urgency or the recall the necessary parts need to be made available now.

When hitting bumps vehicle is making a squeaking / creaking sound fire light front every 3 mon seat belts every time hard to used and now finally broke.

Bulbs constantly going out. Lots of front end issues with noises, clunking mostly. Difficulty seeing due to blind spot where front window and doors meet and where front doors and back sliding door meets.
