Air Bag Light On problems of the 2014 Kia Motor Sorento

Cluster lights turned off while driving air bag light stays on.

Airbag light came on today while driving on the highway (roughly70mph), will not shut off, vehicle not under recall for airbags at this time. Headlights and taillights randomly come on and off, even with brand new bulbs, have changed bulbs almost monthly in last 3 years. Buttons on steering wheel do not work properly - including cruise control not working, volume button starts voice command, etc.

In may. My airbag light came on and won't go off. I'm not sure if the airbags are defective or not, but I'm scared to drive around with the light on. Then on July 16,2020, my vehicle started cutting off on my in the midst of moving traffic. I have to throw my hazard lights on and coast to a safe place to let the truck sit. It's cut off about 7 times now with my 3 kids in the car.

I've only had my 2014 kia Sorento for a year, from 2020-2021. I've noticed these problems in the beginning and assumed they would work itself out because the dealer mentioned that the conditions were minor but they only progressed. I'm putting oil in this vehicle every three to four days because the oil stick is clean ( indicating no oil). The engine light has always been on. I've taken it to several mechanics, including the mechanic that works directly with the dealership in which I purchased this vehicle. The engine light will come back and whenever it started to blink it would cause my vehicle to jerk excessively and forcefully while driving on the interstate and main highways each time causing the speed to decrease . Same thing with the airbag indicator light, it's always been on and I was told to ignore it. And the driver seat does not move, I was told a simple small green fuse (30) would fix that and I purchased several and each time the mechanic would insert one of the fuses, you could hear a pop. I was told not to touch it or it could start a fire (the fuse box area). As of today (April 20, 2021) my 2014 kia Sorento still have these dangerous issues. Very dangerous and something is definitely not right under the hood.

My airbag light has been going on/off for a few months now, and I have contacted several kia dealerships that have told me my car is not a part of an airbag recall, and if I want it fixed, I will have to come out of pocket to the time of about $2,000 to get this fixed. The dealerships I called, and 1 I went to in-person, told me that anything related to the airbag light is not under any type of warranty anymore, even though my car is only 5 years old. This is a safety issue, pure and simple, and is a mechanical failure that I should not be responsible for. I believe kia is hiding something here, and I just cannot magically come up with $2k to fix this. I've seen many other complaints about other years of the Sorento, and I am not happy the manufacturer is not willing to realize the issue here. Very disappointed on how this has materialized, and will try one last time later this week at the kia dealership local to me. This car has driven great, and have had no other issues, but this is a significant issue to say the least.

Air bag light is on and kia says they are not responsible.

My airbag lights will not go off . Upon researching I have come across many people with the exact same complaint yet no recalls. It also seems to be a costly fix. For a safety problem.

My airbag lights going on and off when it wants to , sometimes when starting it will stay on , or you will driving it will come on , when you turn the wheel it comes on, also many times been reported to dealer a popping noise going on, dealer says they cant find issue �. .

Got in my car and the driver seat broke. It sits sideways and can't adjust seat. Then I started my vehicle and the airbag light is on and hasn't went off.

Steering wheel electronic controls(speed control, radio, ). Airbag light on with no collision having occurred, replaced headlights twice in last year, brake lights replaced once.

Air bag light on, headlights will turn off when in auto mode when I use left turn signal steering wheel controls not working or work improperly ie volume control will change radio station or advance track on media back up camera will black out while still in reverse.

In the past 3-4 months I have replaced my battery twice the 1st time I had my truck about 2. 5yrs so I didn't think much of it but I had the same problem after replacing battery within 3-4 months battery would die I would get a boost after a few days same thing happen again. Electrical system seems out of wack when I use left turn signal my headlights will go off until I turn the turn signal off, also my steering wheel controls will not operate the right feature ie I would hit mute but it will not mute but act as if it is the volume down control air bag light for passenger would come on even if no one was in the seat.

The contact owns a 2014 kia Sorento. While operating the vehicle, the passenger side air bag indicator remained illuminated, indicating a possible failure with the air bag system. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The local dealer (franklin kia in franklin, TN) was notified of the failure. The manufacturer was not notified. The VIN was not available. The failure mileage was 86,000.

My rearview camera works when it wants to. (it doesnt work more than it actually works). The controls on the steering wheel are scrambled ex. I pree the volume up or down, and the voice command activates, I can't even mute through the buttons etc. The electrical problem also causes the tail lights to work/not work and constantly have to change the bulbs because of the burnout. I've been pulled over several times for this. The other issue is that now the airbag light has come on, so I don't know if that's a general malfunction or a result of the electrical problem. Also, the a/c doesnt work.

Airbag safety indicator light remains on with passenger sitting on the seat: at 80,000 miles I started having problems with my passenger airbag safety indicator light. When the seat is occupied, the warning airbag light, comes on and remains on. I contacted kia and was told it was no longer under warranty. This happened at first for a long period of time, and now it appears to be happening intermittently. Short in the electrical system. Since 60,000 miles I have had a short in the elecrical system of my vehicle. I have taken it to 2 different places to have it investigated and neither mechanic could trace the cause of the short. I have had blown fuses, non-working headlamps, front and back. No one could find the short. I keep spare fuses with me at all times now, and 100% of the time, the right rear brake light is not operational. I contacted kia car pros in carson, California and they told me that any warranty coverage had expired at 60,000 miles. Defective auto locks my right rear passenger door will no longer open and will no longer permit ingress or egress into the back seat. The key fob will turn the locks to the open position but you still cannot open the door under any circumstances. Periodically, the door locks will go crazy and make up and down movements while the car is being driven. Occasionally, the right front passenger door will lock and not open, but then it opens. Now the right rear passenger door is permanently stuck in the locked position. Kia car pros always finds some excuse for not repairing the door under warranty. I believe it is defective and they should bear the expenses.

I took my car to the franklin kia for a recall and the guy asked me what was out there for and I told them for the recall and he asked me what else is going on with the car and I told him my airbag light was on my cd player work sometimes sometimes it didn't and my speak button work and sometime it didn't none of those things work now the light is still on he told me there's nothing they could do I would have to pay for it.
