1 Gasoline Engine problem of the 2003 Kia Motor Sorento

Failure Date: 02/18/2007

I have heard about the crankshaft bolts breaking off in the kia Sorento's. That is a major safety problem, and I am scared to drive my 2003 over 45 miles an hour. My service dept, dick edwards kia, informed me to have them check the torque on the bolt everytime I go in for service. Kia should own up to this problem and not have its owners scared to drive it.
