 Description of the problem2011 kia sedona is the first kia i have purchased. On june 22, 2012, i was returning home; living on a hill i slowly (less than 10 mph) turned to the right into my driveway, when suddenly, with no warning, that van accelerated making a loud roar. I stood on the brakes with little effect and the van continued to accelerate knocking down three 4x4 posts embedded in concrete, crossing through a garden and then into a bush. The van was headed to a 20 feet drop at the edge of my property. Fortunately, a tall bush, and bamboo thicket had begun building up under and in front of the vehicle to stop its progress. The van stopped just short of the drop off, unable to go further. It required a special tow truck to retrieve the van. The van was ok to drive, but had nearly $11,000 damage to the front and side. I did not suffer injury, but i am adamant that the fuel injection system needed to be replaced. The kia has potential fatal shortcomings, which should be corrected or the model taken off the road. *bf updated 10/17/12

  • 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.
