When my 03 Sorento @ 86000 miles lost the butterfly screws the dealer asked for all the maintenance records. After 1 week they said it was covered. 2 weeks later it was fixed. Few months later they came out with the recall.

You sound like your getting hosed. How can they charge you for storage when they are doing the work? I could understand if the repairs were done and you failed to remove said vehicle. Take it up with KIA CORP>.
