Brakes feel softer, rear brake burnt smell, replaced brakes one month ago. Headlight and taillight bulbs replaced several times in last 3 months due to blinking blowing replaced and starts over again. Screen will not turn on until car has run for 45 minutes. Cannot use back until screen turns on. Leaving car parked until I can get brake system fixed. Noticed brake light on dash and car with swerve light on dash. Too scared to drive until at least brakes are fixed. Reached out to dealership. No part available for recall which most likely is failing my brakes

I'm supposed to park my 2011 Sorento outside and away from structures, and not drive it until Kia comes up with a part/solution to fix the engine compartment fire issue relating to NHTSA Recall # 23V652000 (manufacturer recall # SC284XM). This warning was issued Sept 25th, 2023. It's now been over 3 months. Am I supposed to walk everywhere, use a Ride Share service, or take public transportation"?" If Kia won't fix it, they should give me another vehicle to drive....or purchase the vehicle back from me for what I paid for it in 2022, less 1 year's depreciation.

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.

On December 2, 2020 my Kia Sorento started making a knocking noise. No engine warning lights came on. I went to go head home from work on the interstate and I heard a clank while I was driving my brakes locked in traffic then all the lights on my dash came on and my engine shut off in the middle of traffic. My car would not turn back on and I had to call my insurance company geico to have my car towed home. Very scary and very dangerous. It still doesn't not turn on whatso ever. I have videos but not in the right format to open.

We have replaced the brakes several times and the calipers as well. Now we are having issues again with them. We see that there has been a recall for this issue. This happened in 2017, 2018, and now again in 2019. Two out of four of our doors will not open from the outside, we see there is also a recall for this issue. Please advise us how we go about getting these recalls for our vehicle as we are tired of putting out money when we shouldn't have to repeatedly.

My car has stalled plenty of times within 3 months. Two of which I could have been killed on the hwy!. car stalls, no power then shuts off. I would shut it off for a bit then turn it back on. I did take it in to the shop and they found nothing else but was charged for throttle and new sparks.oh, and no lights on dash. Same thing happened. Lots of money spent. I still owe on it so I can't afford to get another car. Don't know what to do next.

A few months ago my rear brakes suddenly started making noise. I maintain my vehicles very well so I was surprised it happened so suddenly. When I took it in they told me the calipers had slipped and my brakes and rotors needed replacing. I noticed a leak in my garage as well. Never received a recall or warning notice from Kia. When I entered my VIN my vehicle doesn't fall under the recall even though that's exactly what happened to my vehicle. I didn't even realize this until I was looking for a recall 9N a different issue.
