IN REFERENCE TO CAMPAIGN ID NUMBER: 05V232000. MY KIA SEDONA HAS THE DEFECTIVE WHEEL BEARINGS AS INDICATED BY THE REPORT, BUT SOMEHOW HAS NOT BEEN INCLUDED IN THE ORIGINAL RECALL. MY VEHICLE IS BEING SERVICED BY KIEFER KIA IN EUGENE, OREGON. THE DEALERSHIP IS MAKING, AND PAYING FOR, NECESSARY REPAIRS. TO MY UNDERSTANDING, HAD WE NOT FOUND THIS ISSUE BEFORE OUR WARRANTY HAD EXPIRED WE WOULD HAVE BEEN LIABLE FOR THE COST OF REPAIR. I WOULD LIKE TO SEE THIS RECALL EXTENDED THROUGH MY VIN #, IF YOUR FINDINGS SUPPORT MY COMPLAINT. MORE-SO FOR REASON TO COVER ANY OTHER PAST/FUTURE RECALLS FOUND THAT OUR VAN MAY BE AFFECTED BY. THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME. *TR

LATCHES/LOCKS/LINKAGES:DOORS:LATCH
HE SLIDING DOORS ON THE 2009 KIA SEDONA FREEZE SHUT. LEADING TO PULLING AND YANKING ON THE HANDLES TO GET THE DOORS TO OPEN. THIS HAPPENS ON A VERY REGULAR BASIS AND HAS SINCE THE FIRST FREEZE OF PURCHASING THE VAN IN OCTOBER OF 2009. AFTER NOTICING THAT TWO OTHER VANS IN THE AREA HAVE THE SAME ISSUE, I HAVE DECIDED TO MAKE A COMPLAINT. AT TIMES WE HAVE LOADED OUR CHILDREN THROUGH THE FRONT DOORS TO ALLOW THEM GETTING IN THE VAN. ANOTHER TIME WE HAD TO DRIVE OUR OTHER VEHICLE. IT WILL EVENTUALLY CAUSE THE HANDLES TO BREAK OFF THE VAN WITH THE AMOUNT OF FORCE WE NEED TO USE TO OPEN THE DOORS. *CN
