| Description of the problem | 2nd complaint for the 2005 kia sedona - rear tire wear. Every set of tires i put on the vehicle need to be replaced in the back after 6 months due to extreme inside wear. Took the vehicle to a private repair shop and they stated there was no way to adjust and suggested taking to a dealer. I took it to a dealer and got the same response - plus no aftermarket part to put on it either. Of course it took me 3 months to get a response out of the dealer on the aftermarket question. Now, every 10,000-15,000 miles i replace the front tires with new, and put the old ones on the back. I even took the tires to the dealer for show and tell.... They had no answer for the problem. |
