2006 KIA SEDONA Air Bags Problems, Complaints and Defects

Issue ID	1381855
Internal NHTSA #	10992764
Manufacurer	Kia Motors America
Brand	KIA
Model	SEDONA
Model Year	2006
File date	17/05/17
Component	AIR BAGS
Product type code	VEHICLE
Description of the problem	After a few years of owning the van my battery died. I replaced the battery but because of the low battery voltage it caused the airbag light to illuminate [code: "b1102-ub (vb ?) low voltage (<8v)"]. When the is light on none of the airbags will function in an accident. Even though there is nothing wrong with the system, the light can only be shut off (and thus make the airbags functional) by clearing the code with a special reader that only the dealerships appear to have. The dealership will only do this if you pay $280. This is outrageous, there's no reason the airbag system shouldn't function after the code has been resolved. I feel like this is extortion from kia. The federal government mandates that cars have to have airbags you would expect that they would be required to work if there is nothing wrong with the system.

What is Recall?
A recall is when a product is removed from the market or a correction is made to the product because it is either defective or potentially harmful.
What is Failure?
Failure is the state or condition of not meeting a desirable or intended objective, and may be viewed as the opposite of success. Product failure ranges from failure to sell the product to fracture of the product, in the worst cases leading to personal injury, the province of forensic engineering.
What is Defect?
Non-conformance of a car component with the specified requirements, or non-fulfillment of user expectations, including the safety aspects.
