| Description of the problem | Electronic "memory" rear view mirrors on the kia sedona mini-van turn on their own randomly while driving. This is even after they are reset. This has been reported several times to kia and they are unable to get rearview mirrors to remain in the position they are set to. This is dangerous as while driving and switching lanes under the belief there are no cars present, meanwhile the mirror is facing in the wrong direction. Kia has attempted to fix these mirrors twice but the electronics continue to have "ghosts" and they refuse to stay put. |
