| Description of the problem | My 2015 kia sorrento has paint that is chipping off in large chunks around the winshield and the hood. This issue has been happening for a couple of years now. I spoke with kia consumer assurance and they informed me that the only models covered is 2011-2014. I purchased my kia sorrento in april 2014, although it is a 2015 model. I want to make a formal complaint regarding this model. I have seen others with the same issue in this area. |
