- Spring, TX, USA

While driving on the expressway (approx. 70mph) the car began to knock from engine loud. Also there was a lot noise I can't begin to explain. Immediately it smelled like there was a burning smell. There was black smoke coming from the exhaust. There was no issues or indications of any problems before this happened. Luckily I was coming up on a rest stop and I got it into the lot and called a tow truck. Of course I start making calls as soon as possible. Pull up complaints about the car. But I have one of the sool VIN #S not covered under the recall for the same exact thing that thousands are getting help with. Still have to pay for the car. Can't drive the car. 2 months now of being told there's nothing I can do.

I was driving on a city road at night with 2 other people in the car and my sunroof just shattered. Police were called and there was no evidence that a rock or bullet hit my car. No damage to my windshield or front end on my car. It was like it just exploded.

At 37,342 miles the right spring coil broke and shredded my tire while driving on a city street. I am grateful this did not occur on a freeway. The cost to replace the coil, strut, and tire was almost $1,000. I called Kia corporate headquarters and was offered no relief because I was past the basic warranty period of 5 years.

Takata recall, 2014 Kia Sorento lists power when I accellerate. Sorento is very sluggish when driving down the highway it seems to jerk and lose power. This sluggish feeling happens almost daily, even if I have a tune up completed and all new filters. I have also tried different brands of gasoline to try and help with this issue. Nothing seems to help. I am very concerned also about the mount of heat the engine gives off. The heat coming from the engine is so hot you can barely stand by the car.

Driving auto on I-75 South near ft. Myers, fl, car engine spontaneously caught fire. Entire auto burned to nothing but metal. Both myself and my wife were able to open the doors and get out although all power was lost as we were pulling over the side of the highway. Within four minutes the car was completely engulfed in fire.

When I put my car into reverse it makes this baring grind noise even when I am going into reverse. It continues to make this noise as I am driving. Also sometimes it will stop but then start again when I make a turn and continue making the grind or baring noise. Also if I am at a stop light and I press the gas paddle it makes this grind noise. When I looked up recall for this I had found exactly what it could be and my VIN number said it wasnt for recall. Also. I noticed when I would put my park in the park gear position it wont sometimes lock all the way. As I had read also for my car. It depends on the weather how loud it makes the noise. When it's hot its loud then cold its off and on. This happens on streets and highways. My date of happening is an educational guess. I know it was already happening when I got a recall for the oil panel thing and something else.

We were driving down a paved road at approximately 30 mph when we heard a loud noise that sounded like a shotgun. Upon pulling over and inspecting the car, we found that the rear sunroof had exploded and was in tiny pieces. The cover had been pulled shut so only a relatively small amount of glass fell through into the car, but had the cover been open the glass pieces would have fallen in on our two year old son in the back seat. To our knowledge nothing fell on top of the car, and we did not hit a bump or anything in the road when this happened.

My 2013 Kia sorrento's parking lights were on this afternoon on Saturday August 22, 2015 at approximately 2:30 pm est. I went outside to place something in my vehicle when I noticed the parking lights were on. I had parked my vehicle at 1:00 am when I returned from running an errand. I parked, made sure all the lights were turned off, armed the security system and went inside. Before my wife and I went to bed I went out to make sure that I turned all lights off which they were. This was at 2:00 am. The vehicle had not been touched since that time. This is not the first time that this has happened. I have had it in to the dealership twice already where they claim they cannot replicate the problem. We have had to have our vehicle jumped at least 12 times due to a dead battery caused by this problem. The vehicle falls well within it's warranty so it will be covered however the issue is serious enough that it warrants attention which I believe will be ignored if not brought to light and may result in injuries or cost to others when no cost should be incurred. I believe that this is an electrical issue that needs to be addressed immediately. I feel this could lead to problems with steering, braking system, engine malfunction as well as possible risks of fire due to a faulty electrical system.

The dashboard reflects onto the windshield reducing visibilty as the reflections cause distorted vision thru the windshield. This is extremely hazardous on sunny days as the reflections increase depending on the angle of the sun reflecting off the shiny dashboard onto the windshield. Maybe the dashboard should not be coated with such a reflective and shiny material to avoid this issue. In addition, the speed panel has detailed metallic paint around the speedometer and panel info which reflects beams of blinding light from the sun and bright lights into the drivers face while driving. Again, maybe the metallic paint and shiny reflective design should be changed to non-reflective options to avoid blinding the driver. Annoying features which cause the driver to adjust position while driving or try to block the blinding lights and visual distractions while in motion are dangerous and could lead to accidents. Kia please consider redesigning these dangerous design details and increase the safety for everyone. If changes are not made on newer models, I will never again purchase any Kia products and will warn others of these dangers on this vehicle brand. Safety is more important than design so please remove the metallic paint from the speedometer panel and find a non-reflective material to cover the dashboard. Thank you.
