1 Adaptive Cruise Control problem

Failure Date: 03/25/2026

Adaptive cruise control warning lites. In the beginning it started sending warnings after it was on for a while. Now the warning is when I start the car. This has been fixed once under warranty but it is no longer working again. The warning lites for the aeb system is also on. Also I have pearl white Sorento and the paint is peeling off the hood.

2 Adaptive Cruise Control problem

Failure Date: 11/01/2025

I am reporting a serious engine defect in my 2017 kia Sorento. The has failed and presents an ongoing safety concern. The issue is while driving on the interstate, the vehicle began shaking violently, started making a knocking noise and the check engine illuminated. The rpms also began spiking so I slowed down and got off at the next exit. Now every time I start the vehicle it continues to shake, knock and cannot accelerate properly -- the rpms climb as high as 5000 with very little power. This is a clear safety hazard and makes the vehicle unsafe to operate on public roads.

3 Adaptive Cruise Control problem

Failure Date: 01/12/2024

Automatic emergency braking passenger side air bag Smart cruise control system backup camera forward collision warning lane departure warning system head lights blinked on occasion and others all stopped working at the same time which makes the vehicle unsafe to drive. Took it into the dealer and they replaced the sop module due to code b10055, acu communication error tested and found module not communicating with vehicle. To replace this part it costs me 925. 50 after replacing this part they ran another coding and found that the ods mat has internal short causing failure of variant coding. This part will cost an additional $3,287 to fix. Looked online and noticed that kia has safety recall (sc175) for 2015-2018 kia sedona for the front passenger seat occupant detection system (ods)harness which is the exact same part that my kia sorrento needs and falls in the same year built. My 2017 kia sorrento has only 56,000 miles on it. Kia dealership supposedly fixed the ccs headlights flicker failure which was a separate recall which was a multifunction switch but this did not fix the other sensors.

4 Adaptive Cruise Control problem

Failure Date: 06/14/2023

Both rear speed sensors have gone bad. One under warranty, one outside. This disables safety speed systems and speed control.

5 Adaptive Cruise Control problem

Failure Date: 08/24/2022

Oil consumption is horrible, also there is never a warning light that tells you that the oil is low, you’ll just be driving and then the check engine light will come on and the car with start driving funny. It’s a dangerous situation because at any time your car could be out of oil and your engine could blow cause if harm or death to everyone in the vehicle and could possibly cause an accident.
