Consumer Description

THE STEERING STARTED TO BECOME DIFFICULT WHILE DRIVING ,INTERMITTENTLY DANGEROUS WHEN YOU NEVER KNEW IT WAS GONNA HAPPEN. EVENTUALLY JUST STOPPED WORKING ALL TOGETHER ,I DID ALOT OF ONLINE RESEARCH AND FOUND OUT THIS IS A VERY COMMON PROBLEM ,WITH THE STEERING KNUCKLE BINDING BECAUSE OF CORROSION . ALL AND ALL THINK THE VEHICLE WAS VERY WELL THOUGHT OUT AND ALOT OF AMENITIES ARE AWESOME IN THIS VEHICLE ,WHY DOESN'T KIA JUST OFFER A RECALL ,SINCE THEY HAVE ALREADY POSTED A BULLETIN FOR THIS? CALL THE DEALERSHIP AND REALIZE THIS PART IS ALWAYS ON BACK ORDER COME ON KIA MAN UP. *TR
