Dt on July 12th, 2005 the seat belt completely broke, it broke from the two metal prongs. Look like a mesh of wires that go down into the seat. When the consumer slammed on the brakes, her 5 yr hit the back of the seat which was on the rear drivers side. The other seats belts are all the same except for the rear center. The consumer contacted Kia they are replacing the seat belt, however, they are not alarming the public.

I have numerous complaints on my 2003 Kia sodona. I purchased the vechile in June of 2003, we have since taken the van in to the dealership for a variety of problems. The aircondtioner stop blowing cold air with in the first three months of owning it, this has been fixed. Paint has peeled off the front bumper, seat belt ratcheting system stopped working, engine mount needed replacing, tansmition needed adjusting three times, and the last problem was the vechile would lock when ever and where ever it felt the need to. I locked my self out of the car with my children inside many times. The dealship replaced a main panal inside the door. Despite, all the times I have taken it in, at least twice for every problem, the dealership refuses to give me a car, mind you I have two children to cart around all day. I am extrmemly peeved about this van.
