Horrible please help my Sorento is loved by me. No one contacted me on these issues im having.
Door will not open from the outside on the driver rear side. Also I am starting to have issues with my gear shift. I can't put my vehicle out of park. If I do get it out of park, 2 of my dashboards lights come one. I also notice when these lights are on my brake lights do not show on the rear side. This is am hazard and my truck slips from time to time.
I was informed brake lights were not illuminating. Electric stability control idiot light showed up on dashboard right before being informed. Car is also not shifting into park or reverse. Drive gear seems ok.
Push button start not starting vehicle. Brake lights do not come on upon depress of brake pedal. Vehicle only starts after holding button 10-15 seconds.
The contact owns a 2011 kia Sorento. The contact was traveling 35 mph when the brake warning light illuminated. The contact then proceeded to depress the brakes but the vehicle failed to stop properly. The vehicle was taken to the dealer where the dealer confirmed that the master cylinder needed to be replaced. The manufacturer was contacted but the vehicle was not repaired. The failure and current mileages were 15,235.
Stability control and downhill assist lights illuminate while driving. Then when stopped, car will not go past neutral when trying to shift into park. Also, when driving, the brake lights do not work immediately when pedal is depressed. Car will not shift out of park after started and stability control and downhill assist lights are illuminated. Located switch at the upper part of the brake pedal and while car was in neutral, with parking brake on, was able to bump the switch box and then shift car into park.
2011 kia Sorento ex 3. 5 engine sport utility vehicle has randomly changed in the way its feels safe with rough instability in my suspension components. My brakes failed while driving on a random basis as well as when car is parked will randomly click in my gear shift mechanism and will fail to lock when car is parked and shut off it will click when brakes are depressed. My front lights have dimmed and both brake lights have burned out consistently as well as my steering wheel has failed with electrical components randomly. Car horn is inoperable and my cruise control stop functioning. My alternator burned out on me and my car has historial proof of consistent maintenance with car fax report in hand . My gas milage has since decreased. My suspension feels unsafe to drive and really bad on bumps and average road conditions are also very unpleasant so I have parked it until it's fixed for active recalls and other potential manufacturer defects.
While driving downhill for no apparent reason even though the downhill assist switch is turned off, the car starts braking by itself as if the hill brake assist switch was turned on. This happens most of the time and almost caused a crash from someone hitting my rear end since the brake lights do not come on.
