| Manufacurer | Kia Motors America |
| Brand | KIA |
| Model | SEDONA |
| Model Year | 2007 |
| File date | 26/07/14 |
| Component | AIR BAGS |
| Product type code | VEHICLE |
| Description of the problem | First, the air bag light for driver stays on, then cruise control quit working, now the horn quit working. I took it to a garage and was told it was a faulty clock spring. I looked up and see that other models of kia's have been recalled for faulty clock springs; but not the sedona. I believe this model should also be recalled as it is a safety hazard not to have a working air bag and horn. I was told by two different garages that it will cost $350 to replace the clock spring. I cannot afford to fix this so i will drive with no horn or air bag. If i should be injured or die in a crash due to either of these items not working i have instructed my wife and children to sue kia for not recalling all the clock springs, when its obvious that more models have problems than what has been recalled. |
