| Description of the problem | I own a 2005 kia sedona that i purchased new. I put the first set of brakes on it at 15,000 miles. It now has 52,000 and i'm going to have to put the fifth set on. I contacted kia directly and they told me their wasn't a recall but there was a brake system upgrade that i could purchase. I asked if they were aware of a brake problem and they said only in certain areas ,depending on the terrain. I am 32 years old and have never seen nothing like this and i have always lived here. At 52,000 miles i should just now be putting on the first set of brakes. |
