2014 Kia Sorento 4dr SUV
290-horsepower 3.3L V6 6-speed shiftable automatic AWD
| 32000 mi | Sorento emergency brake has not been properly holding vehicle in place when applied causing vehicle to creep backward and depend on transmission loading to keep car from moving. |
| 35000 mi | Parking brake does not hold vehicle in place as it is designed to when on a slope- vehicle still rolls slightly, putting a load on internal transmission parts, after application of brake. On going issue. Even after describing when symptoms occur clearly on work order, mechanic only checks vehicle when level/flat and therefore states nothing is wrong and that E-Brake is working properly. Owner had to get in car with mechanic to prove to him the problem. They claim adjustment made but symptoms still occur. Dealership states there is no more adjustment and will not replace the necessary e-brake parts/hardware to fix issue. If it isn't broke, won't fix it mentality/coverage. |
| 10000 mi | Left for a vacation road trip when the 4 Wheel, ABS & Traction Control warning lights came on. Stopped at nearest dealer. They checked system and indicated that they found loose wires. Left dealer and within 30 minutes lights came back on Stopped at another dealer. They indicated that it would take a day or so to diagnose beyond what the first dealer did. They said vehicle was drivable, but the safety features wouldn't work. Being summer, risk was low, so we continued. |
| 10800 mi | This is related to the July trip. Upon returning home, took car to local dealer. They had it for 2 days and said they totally cleaned the systems and re-set codes Same problem as the July trip and earlier August report. This time dealer was able to re-create and indicated they found a bad wheel speed sensor. |
| 19000 mi | Similar to issue last year. On extended trip ABS, Stability Control & All Wheel Drive malfunctions while cruising at highway speeds. |
| 86180 mi | Sensor blown, have 'warning lights' for all systems yellow Only work done was diagnostic was informed the 100.00 I will have to pay was because I was not sold an extended warrently, but a bolt on, with a different company Still have to return for the repair |
