hello, my name is
nathan pitman.

I have the same problem. Just called Kia and was on the phone for about 15 minutes. I mentioned this video also. Great documentation! It appears this is now a know issue. They were very receptive and said they would take care of the problem immediately. I’ll wait to see what happens.

I’m really sorry to hear about these problems y’all have been having with your Kia!  My hubby & I had been thinking about buying a new car, and Kia was on the short list!  I think maybe now it won’t be on the list at all!

HI we too are having problems with our sedona but for over a year now.

the dealership where we bought it keep fobbing us off with lame excuses and admitted to us that they had forgotton about it (and us).

so we are now taking it to a solicitor to see if we can get our money back! not holding out much hope. as it seems that all Kia want is your money!!!!!

Hi,

I’ve been having the same problem with my LS, new as of june ‘07, i’ve been told that mine is the only one that their ‘fixes’ hasn’t worked for!!!

i’ve asked for a replacement and been told that there is nothing wrong with mine now!

I’m just about to get legal so can you drop me a line and let me know what’s the latetest as i too have written to BBC ‘Watchdog’.

Cheers,

John

My Kia Sedona is now in for repair with the electrical doors for the 6th time.  All the fixes have not worked!!!!  I am now in the process of getting my money back.  My doors open whilst driving exposing my 3 young children!!!

My KIA dealer says that they have successful fixed the problem on their demo model and have now applied these fixes to my KIA on the faulty door.

I am a bit puzzled that they only tweak the faulty back door rather than apply the fixes to both back doors as a matter of course (the risk of having a sliding door opening whilst the car is moving is very serious)

Any progress on yours?

well, I have a sedona too and planning to sell it due to the same problem that you have. it really sucks!

My new Sedona is doing something similar—the sliding door sometimes pops slightly open just after it closes—- its not enough for the door to automatically reopen, but an open door is an open door.

Just called the dealer and he says that its a known problem which has been esculated to KIA UK for a fix.  The dealer sys that they have tried replacing all the parts of a faulty door and that did not fix the problem which is why they have escualted it.

He says I will get a call back in a day or two—- more news as I have it

We have a 2007 Sedona and the power doors have been “repaired” several times by Peak Kia, but just the other day it happened again.  But wait, there’s more...a noisy A/C clutch was replaced twice, then it required a new A/C pump assy.  The CD player stopped working, so thats been replaced. Its been in twice for the gear shift lever “locking up”. We could put the lever in the park possition, but it would not recognize this and we were unable to remove the keys from the ignition!  (If this happens to you, disconnect the battery to release the switch).  And just yesterday, my wife said that she can smell oil when in stop & go traffic.  Sure enough, I looked and there is oil leaking down onto the exhuast.  This must be the same oil leak I reported twice before to the dealer.  They told me there was no leak, but the spots on my garage floor say otherwise.  We are stuck with our Sedona because of the loan amount vs value.  So its back to the dealer we go, but it will NOT be going back to Peak Kia!!!

You have all inspired me to focus on providing more informative and resource type link building posts in the future,so stay tuned for more soon.Engineering institutes in india

Astounding video clip about Kia Sedona electric door fault! I want to get more related post about Kia Sedona. Thanks a lot :)

Thanks for the info. I soon visit your site and know it that have same problem.

My 2011 Sedona has with 890 miles on it has been to the dealership 2 times (it is there now)> I too have anissue where the door just opened up while I was going 40 MPH andwhen you think it is closed the buzzer beeps and the dome light satsy on. Our service advisor stated that we must be mistaken, the door cannot open when the van is in gear, and they can’t find a reason for it when they looked for the problem. I have had this van for 6 weeks. It started after 5 days.

This is a problem and a dangerous one

I guess I will have to contact KIA directly
