2015 Kia Sedona Recalls, Issues & Maintenance

“Right side sliding became stuck in closed position. Door was not openable by inside nor outside door handles. Not openable by automatic means such as push button. This situation slowed egress and could be a safety issue during emergency evacuation”

“PASSENGER SIDE SLIDING DOOR GRINDS WHEN ATTEMPTING ELECTRONIC CLOSURE. SOMETIMES IT DOESNT CLOSE COMPLETELY. ON THIS OCCASION, DOOR WAS COMPLETELY CLOSED, NO DOOR LIGHT ON, AND WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY THE DOOR ELECTRONICALLY OPENED WHILE AT SPEED”

“TAKATA RECALL SLIDING DOORS DO NOT PROPERLY CLOSE ALL THE TIME AND CAN POP OPEN WHILE DRIVING. SO I HAVE TO GET OUT AND CLOSE THE DOOR BY HAND. THIS HAS HAPPEND ON DIFFERENT OCCASIONS SINCE NOVEMBER OF 2016”

“While traveling home with five others after dark the headlights just went out on a very dark highway. Before we could safely pull over they came back on”

“There have been several times recently when both of the headlights flicker on and off while driving or while parked over the past 2 weeks. Most of the time it seems to happen when using the turn signal, but not always”

“FOR ABOUT 6 WKS NOW WHILE DRIVING SPECIALLY AT NIGHT MY HEADLIGHTS WILL RANDOMLY FLICKER OFF AND ON, AND THERE HAVE BEEN SEVERAL TIMES WHERE THE AUTOMATIC HEADLIGHTS JUST TURN OFF AND STAY OFF. IT HAS HAPPENED WHILE DRIVING AND WHILE PARKED”

“When pushing the turn signal down while the vehicle is in motion to go left, it either doesn’t blink or switches to the right blinker. This nearly caused an accident the other day when a car nearly hit the back of my van with my 6 kids in it”

“TAKATA RECALL: OUR 2015 KIA SEDONA'S WHEN IN MOTION OR STATIONARY, THE TURN SIGNAL COMPONENT DOES NOT SIGNAL THE DIRECTION WE HAVE SELECTED. WHEN I CHOOSE LEFT TURN IT SIGNALS RIGHT TURN”

“MY 2015 KIA SEDONA SX-L HAS DEVELOPED A RANDOM ISSUE WHEN THE LEFT TURN SIGNAL FUNCTION IS ACTUATED (AND NOT THE RIGHT). SYMPTOMS INCLUDE THE LEFT SIGNAL NOT OPERATING AT ALL, OR WHEN THE LEFT SIGNAL IS DEPRESSED BUT THE RIGHT SIGNAL BLINKS RAPIDLY THREE TIMES INSTEAD”

“The passenger side second row outside seat is not latching into place appropriately and thus slides forward and back in the track upon breaking or accelerating. We did not know it became faulty until my 5 year old was seated while driving”

“I have already submitted a claim regarding my passenger side middle seat not locking into the track and having a significant safety concern. On July 1st my sister in law was sitting in the back (middle drivers side captains chair this time) while driving”

“We have had multiple seat latches fail on our vehicle. We have attempted to WD40 the mechanism and have ensured there is nothing in the tract but the second row passenger seat as well as the larger drivers side third row seat are not latching onto the tract”

“Engine blew a rod without warning or service light indication. The vehicle is available for inspection. My two children and I were put at risk due to the nature of the engine failure and being able to safely navigate the vehicle off of the highway”

“Engine popped started to shake would not go over 2000 rpm. Pulled over and had car towed home”

“The contact owns a 2015 Kia Sedona. The contact stated that while driving at an undisclosed speed, the engine overheated. No warning lights were illuminated. In addition, the thermostat gauge indicated that the engine was overheating”

“Was driving down the road with zero issues known, no check engine light, and only 114K miles. There was a sudden noise that was quiet so I turned down the radio, and then within 2 seconds or so a loud bang occurred, followed by a lot of smoke”

“We were driving and pulled over to a grocery store and noticed that the dash lights were going crazy and then the cabin started to fill with a little smoke and then the car shut off. The doors would not open and the car had no power at all. We were finally to get us and our kids”

“Vehicle was parked in garage and caught on fire. Garage, vehicle, and all contents were a complete loss. Total loss of garage and property excluding the vehicle is around $75,000”

“I was driving at approximately 20-25 mph when both side curtain airbags deployed. There was no collision or sudden stops. There were no warning lights or symptoms before or after the incident. My battery had been replaced at a local shop 4-5 hours prior to the incident”

“AIR BAG LIGHT IS ON AND WONT GO OFF. IT USED TO COME ON OCCASIONALLY BUT IT JUST STARTED TO BE ON CONSTANTLY RECENTLY. ALSO THE PASSENGER AIR BAG IS STUCK ON. ITS SUPPOSED TO LIGHT UP OFF WHEN NO ONE IS SEATED”

“THE AIR BAG LIGHT IS ON AND STAYS ON. IT USE TO ONLY COME ON EVERY ONCE AND A WHILE BUT NOW STAYS ON ALL THE TIME. ALSO THE PASSENGER AIR BAG INDICATOR LIGHT IS NOT WORKING CORRECTLY. THE PASSENGER SEAT BELT LIGHT FLASHES WHEN THERE IS NO ONE IN THE SEAT”
