I took the vehicle in because the sure bag light was on. Shortly after, I recieved something in the mail from Kia about the air bag recaps so I took it in. The dealership told me my VIN wasn't covered. They said the passenger side bag is what I am having an issue with so they turned off the air bags and I've been driving with no air bags for a couple of months because they said I had to pay for it. It's $1400 and my warranty had just run it out.

In the past 3-4 months I have replaced my battery twice the 1st time I had my truck about 2.5yrs so I didn't think much of it but I had the same problem after replacing battery within 3-4 months battery would die I would get a boost after a few days same thing happen again. Electrical system seems out of wack when I use left turn signal my headlights will go off until I turn the turn signal off, also my steering wheel controls will not operate the right feature ie I would hit mute but it will not mute but act as if it is the volume down control air bag light for passenger would come on even if no one was in the seat

Kia has lots of issues with their air bags. From clock spring to sensors in the driver side and so on. Company does not take care of it and coming up with crazy estimates to fix, please just see how many complaints have been made on google. This is a safety issue and Kia needs to take care of it without a charge until they fix their air bag problems.

Airbag safety indicator light remains on with passenger sitting on the seat: At 80,000 miles I started having problems with my passenger airbag safety indicator light. When the seat is occupied, the warning airbag light, comes on and remains on. I contacted Kia and was told it was no longer under warranty. This happened at first for a long period of time, and now it appears to be happening intermittently. Short in the electrical system. Since 60,000 miles I have had a short in the elecrical system of my vehicle. I have taken it to 2 different places to have it investigated and neither mechanic could trace the cause of the short. I have had blown fuses, non-working headlamps, front and back. No one could find the short. I keep spare fuses with me at all times now, and 100% of the time, the right rear brake light is not operational. I contacted Kia car pros in carson, California and they told me that any warranty coverage had expired at 60,000 miles. Defective auto locks my right rear passenger door will no longer open and will no longer permit ingress or egress into the back seat. The key fob will turn the locks to the open position but you still cannot open the door under any circumstances. Periodically, the door locks will go crazy and make up and down movements while the car is being driven. Occasionally, the right front passenger door will lock and not open, but then it opens. Now the right rear passenger door is permanently stuck in the locked position. Kia car pros always finds some excuse for not repairing the door under warranty. I believe it is defective and they should bear the expenses.

My 2014 Kia Sorento airbag warning light came on without being involved in any sort of accident. After that the controls on the steering wheel also started malfunctioning. This seems to be a common complaint of Kia owners.
