NHTSA Complaint #10348483 — 2007 KIA SEDONA

ONLY OWNER OF 2007 KIA SEDONA, I WAS INFORMED BY ANOTHER DRIVER WHILE DRIVING THAT MY BRAKE LIGHTS DID NOT WORK. I HAD NOTICED THAT THE "ESC" LIGHT WAS ON MY DASH AND DID NOT GO OUT. I CALLED KIA MOTORS TO INFORM THEM OF THIS AFTER I SAW ONLINE THAT THERE WAS A RECALL AND THEY ADVISED THAT MY VEHICLE WAS NOT INVOLVED IN THE RECALL AND THAT I NEEDED TO TAKE IT TO A DEALER FOR DIAGNOSIS. I DID AND IT WAS THE SAME FAULTY BRAKE SWITCH THAT WAS ON THE RECALL BUT SINCE KIA SAID MY UNIT WAS NOT INCLUDED IN THE RECALL I HAVE TO PAY FOR THE PART AND REPAIR BY THE DEALER. I REQUESTED REIMBURSEMENT FROM KIA MOTORS IN GOOD FAITH AS WHAT HAPPENED TO MY VEHICLE WAS EXACTLY WHAT HAPPENED TO OWNERS IN THE RECALL BUT THEY DENIED MY GOOD FAITH REQUEST. *TR
