Description of the problem	My granddaughter opened the rear psgr door on the drivers side and it broke off and the front passenger door is about to break off i took it to luther kia in inver grove heights and they said that it would cost $322. 00 to fix the broken handle. I took it to a body shop and they told me that in his 12 years working with cars that a door handle would break off like that and he also said that the front psgr door will have to be replaced also. And they would charge $368. 00 for both doors. I talked to a lady at my job she just bought a 2013 kia sorrento and she said that when she purchased it the door handles were missing and they were going to replace them for free since she just brought the car. But they sold her the car with 2 handles missing i feel that there is definitely something wrong with the the door handles on these cars. Have there been any other complaints about door handles missing. I also had to replace my rear brake light twice and my sister was following me and she said that my brake light would sometine go on then not. I was also stopped by a police officer about the same rear brake light and i got it fixed then month later it did the same thing.
