Description of the problem	I have a 2006 kia sedona. It was bought used in 2007. Approximately one year later both sliding door latches broke. Once opened in normal everyday use the doors would no longer latch closed. The passenger side sliding door was the first to go. After closing the door repeatedly and having it bounce back open we finally got it to latch shut. We then tied the door shut until we could get it in to be serviced. While driving through a parking lot the door again bounced open as far as the rope would let it. On the day before we took the kia into be serviced the driver side sliding door did the same thing. Thankfully the kia was parked in our driveway when this happened. Nothing we could do, other than tying the door shut, would get the door to latch. This is a 2 year old vehicle. The latches should not be having problems. Thank god no one was injured or worse, however if the doors had fully opened while going down the road at normal speed someone could have easily been injured or fallen out.
