NHTSA Complaint #10346872 — 2010 KIA SOUL

I PURCHASED A 2010 KIA SOUL AND HAD IT ABOUT TWO MONTHS WHEN WHILE DRIVING THE STEERING COLUMN CAME OFF. I TOOK PICTURES, AS I HAD NO CONTROL OVER THE WHEELS, I DIDN'T REALIZE IT UNTIL MY CAR WOULDN'T STOP. I KEPT PUSHING DOWN ON THE BRAKES AND THERE WAS SOMETHING IN THE WAY, THAT WAS WHEN I REALIZED IT WAS THE STEERING COLUMN. I CONTACTED KIA 24 HOUR ROADSIDE, THEY TRANSPORTED MY VEHICLE TO UNION CITY KIA, WHERE I FOUND OUT FROM TONY IN THE SERVICE CENTER THAT MY AIRBAG NEEDS TO ALSO BE REPLACED IN THE STEERING WHEEL BECAUSE IT WAS NON FUNCTIONAL. THIS IS DAY THREE, AS THIS HAPPENED DURING THE WEEKEND, I CALLED KIA TODAY ABOUT HAVING A VEHICLE TO STAY MOBILE. I AM STILL WAITING ON A CALL BACK, THOUGH MY VEHICLE IS COVERED UNDER WARRANTY, THEY ARE STATING THAT I CANNOT HAVE A LOANER CAR OR RENTAL REIMBURSEMENT. *TR
