Radiator Problems of Kia Motor Sedona

Last September 6th, 2018, Sedona was almost caught fire while driver was with her children. Onwer saw a huge smoke after she looked at dashboard tempature guage that reached overheat, quickly parked, turned it off, and opened the hood. She smelled strong burned. Mechanic took a look at engine and found a lot of motor oil that was leaking through the head gasket and spilling over onto exhaust pipe under engine block. Oil spilling onto exhaust pipe could cause fire. Response of mechanic diagnosis, original alternator was at fault for stopping generate power supply to the radiator fan assembly. Then radiator fan assembly stopped operating, resulting in engine overheat to break the head gasket, leaking a lot of motor oil. Following overheat issue, transmission was also affected. Mechanic noticed that alarm was not built in for coolant fluid level low after half low in radiator found. Why was not a coolant fluid level low alarm built in before first time vehicle was sold? without a coolant fluid level low alarm could lead vehicle into fire.

Had to get my car serviced because antifreeze was pouring out of my car. After they looked at my car I was notified that kia does not have the part to fix my car but insists that I can still drive it. Meanwhile I need to fill up the tank after my errands for the day, that's an estimate of $20 a day!they told me it would take up to 2-3 weeks until this part came in. I found it disturbing how they told me I can drive this car while it pours out antifreeze (antifreeze is poison to animals). Also to get it serviced I called the place where I bought it and they couldn't even look at my car till another 3 weeks or so. My car is now an hour away and kia will not provide me with a rental. Its a shame how they scam people into buying the car for the warranty because once they have your money they don't care after that.
