See attached document for complaint. My trim is falling off my kia. I called kia pursuant to the enclosed recall and I was told there is no remedy yet. Are you kidding. Glue! this is not rocket science. I went to my kia dealer and they merely stuck the trim back on and it flaps in the wind. Very dangerous! must someone be killed by the debris? also the value of the vehicle for resale plummets. It looks terrible with rubber exposed and rubber is falling off. Do something or sue kia as a class action for refund on all vehicles affected.
