Description of the problem	My daughter took my car a 2004 kia sorento in for a nysi and the shop dead lined the car and made me flatbed it home due to the fact that the rear end was falling out due to excessive rot on the brackets and they deemed the car unsafe to drive. The women that runs the shop told my daughter and son that this isn't the first time that she has seen this on a kia. In fact its a prevalent issue! Upon coming home i did some research on the internet and found that this is a major issue that the federal government should be looking into ordering kia to do a recall,my daughter could have been killed driving this vehicle. I also saw on the internet that in the uk kia had taken care of this issue with consumers. I would like consideration in having kia repair this car free or purchace the vehicle back at blue book pricing. This is an extremely dangerous issue that could have killed my daughter or anyone else on the road where my daughter was driving the kia sorento.
