This data is from the NHTSA — the US gov't agency tasked with vehicle safety. Complaints are spread across multiple & redundant categories, & are not organized by problem.
So how do you find out what problems are occurring? For this NHTSA complaint data, the only way is to read through the comments below. Any duplicates or errors? It's not us.
I own a 1999 Kia Sephia and my daughter uses it at school. The problem is that Kia will not honor the warranty for the repair of the catalytic converter. The case ref nbr is K1085742. Many reason were given, all relating to a manual engine flush, coolant flush, etc. My research shows that there is no correlation between the defective part and the selected maintenance item. My daughter should not have paid for the converter. (also they are about 50% of their cost on the open market).
