On March 26th, 2016 my 2012 KIA Sorento LX was involved in an accident which was caused by the 2.4-Litre Engine Seizure. The vehicle lost all power steering and brakes. Had to swerve away from oncoming traffic and pedestrians and hit a traffic stop sign. The stop sign had flown straight into the front drivers side windshield shattering the window.
