general problems of the 2007 Kia Motor Sedona

Vehicle break lights, cruze control does not work at all esv light stay on.

When the car accelerate the gas pedal gets stock, this happened to me twice already and three months.

Transmission shifts slowly from 1st to 2nd gear and rpms at 25mph and 45mph are ar 1000 or less causing car to vibrate under load when accelerating due to low rpm.

While driving my husbands kia it picks up speed if going over 40 mph it will shut off and we get no power to the gas peddle it holds alot of heat from the motor the side doors open and close when they want . . But my biggest issue is the gas peddle and the shutting off while driving.

Tl-the contact owns a 2007 kia Sedona. The contact stated that while driving at approximately 25 mph, the vehicle acceleration independently, the brakes was depressed but the vehicle continued to accelerate. The contact stated in order to stop the vehicle, he had to restart the vehicle. The vehicle was not taken to a dealer or diagnosed. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 61,000. Ak.

My grandchildren and I were coming home from the lake on a highway at about 60 mph. I depressed the accelerator to pass another car when it became stuck. We were accelerating at a rapid speed and I could not slow the vehicle down I was standing on the break and was still doing 80mpi. I had to put the car into neutral to coast the the side of the road but the engine was still revving at high speed. After stopping the vehicle I had to manually pull the accelerator pedal up with my hand. There was nothing for it to have gotten stuck on. The floor matts were not touching the pedal in any way. This was not only scary but to say the least very dangerious.

1. Driving van on highway when esc and check engine warning lights came on simultaneously. 2. Vehicle suddenly loses all acceleration. Has happened twice in the past two weeks, both times at highway speeds. 3. Dealership indicates that this is a chronic issue with multiple models and that replacement parts have been redesigned to reduce failure, but that issues are so prevalent that parts are on back order and that it may take "2 weeks or 2 months" to receive parts to correct the problem.

This is a brand new 2007 kia Sedona. I was merging on a highway and pressed the acceleration pedal as usual when I noticed immediately that the car was stuck on the acceleration mode despite the fact my foot was no longer on the gas pedal. The car would not slow down or stop despite my foot pressing firming them slamming the brakes. In fact the engine/motor kept racing even though now I was slamming on the emergency brakes. Although I could not look down at the dashboard, my minivan must have been going over 100mph in moderate traffic. This continued until I passed another exit. The only resolution was to shift the car into neutral which slowed it down and then I was able to put the car into a narrow shoulder and put it in park then turned the car off right away. My family and I were almost killed because of this vehicle failure!.

The contact owns a 2007 kia Sedona. The contact noticed that the computer in the vehicle would sometimes accelerate on its own. The first instance occurred while test driving the vehicle. The vehicle accelerated when he removed his foot from the brake pedal. The dealer stated that the failure was caused by the vehicle being parked on the sales lot for months. Two weeks after purchasing the vehicle, the failure recurred. While driving in reverse at 20 mph, the contact crashed into a fencepost due to the failure. He took the vehicle to the dealer nine times for a diagnostic, but no error codes could be found. The manufacturer did not assist. The current mileage was 42,833 and failure mileage was 30,193.
