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.
