Description of the problem	Cyber safety alert - bad software unlocks all doors 100x /day countermanding driver input: please make this a recall to force them to fix this very dangerous occupant safety problem. Car has been to 2 dealers 4 x total, they keep saying its unfixable. Kia cust service refuse to do anything.(kia case #[xxx], ) daytona beach dealer refuses refund or replacement car. Is there any way for someone from nhtsa to contact kia in korea and get some action on fixing the software door unlock 100x / day problem ? There are 4 diff situations in which the doors unlock creating a very unsafe situation for crime/carjacking/ and worse. 2014 kia sedona ex vin # [xxx] its should be a simple software update fix to alleviate the problem : unlocks without driver permission when: 1. Put in park 2. Key out 3. Key in 4. If you want to warm up car while loading cargo/people it constantly countermands the driver instruction to lock doors, this goes like this: driver pushed lock button , it unlocks all doors w/o permission, drive again pushes lock, it immediately unlocks all doors again, repeats over and over and over infinitely ... In this day /age of terrorism, crime, kidnapping, etc... Its imperative that nhtsa and citizens get these situations solved so that at least the driver can know the doors stay locked when the lock button is pushed and that the computer won't constantly veto driver efforts for security. Thanks>.. Please so something < anything!>.. Kia cust service refuses to do anything except read from a script. Kia headquarters in korea seem not to have contact # information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u. S. C. 552(b)(6).
