Kia 2006 Sedona Lemon
I need help and suggestions! My 2006 Sedona has just gone into the service dept for the 6th time. This morning, a pulley from the left side of the engine decided to leave where ever it is supposed to live and exit the engine compartment (with a great amount of thunking and noise) all together. So now, yet again, my van sits at the service dept waiting for parts which will take the better part of a week to get here (I am told by the service associate). So far, they have replaced the dvd player, the front passenger seat, the timing chain tensioner assembly, battery, both v/c gaskets.... and now who knows what is next. I'm smelling a lemon! This vehicle is not even 2 years old! We only have 13,900 kilometres on it! It has come to the point where we are just waiting for the next thing to fail. I would love to get rid of it, but I'm sure that we owe more money than it is worth.
The one thing I know is this... I would never ever ever think of buying another Kia, and I will personally tell every single one of the customers that comes into my shop not to ever buy a Kia! I have little power to influence anybody at Kia to actually fix my vehicle properly, or give me one that isn't a complete lemon, but I can more than share how dreadfully awful it has been owning a Kia for the past 18 months.
