I went in to the burlington, wa kia dealership for this recall fix. And after waiting an hour they tell me they don't have the right part. It's now been about a month later and I'm still waiting to hear when the part will be available. I don't think this is ok for a safety issue.

Failure Date: 04/05/2020

I just received a recall on my kia sorrento, it says it is due to a electrical anti lock break system. And followed by this letter my light does stay on for this part and other lights are on too do to this. I'm scared to death to drive this kia now. I think for this kind of problem, they should recall the entire vehical. And give me a brand new kia sorrento. Because this is life or death,and this is the only vehical I have to take care of my daughter. To school and doctor, or what ever her needs and mine are. I am a single mother on a fixed income and I'm very scared for mine and my child's life or who rides with us. So I think kia dealership should take my kia that's recalled and give me a new one for that. I travel alot everyday and I need a dependable vehical and shouldn't have to worry about my family's safety for using my kia.

9 Service Brakes problem

Failure Date: 01/16/2008

I have taken this vehicle to the purchasing dealer 7 times for multiple issues including transmission or torque converter difficulty switching gears, the main wiring harness fell down into the dash, poor braking performance. The major issue has been the random, but daily esc off light coming on and off. The dealer seems either unwilling or incapable of correcting this issue. I have filed a customer service request we kia two weeks ago, randy ext 45295 kia customer service assured me he would ¿get back to me¿ in two business days. Today is the seventh business day and no reply. It¿s my opinion that the esc issue, wiring harness, and poor braking are issues that should be address in via recall since kia customer service and warranty commitment are meaning less to kia corporation.
