NHTSA Complaint #10758669 — 2007 KIA SORENTO

EACH DOOR HANDLE IS POPPING AND I'M UNABLE TO OPEN DOORS FROM THE OUTSIDE. THE REAR PASSENGER DOOR HAS STOPPED WORKING AND AT THE TIME THE CHILD LOCK WAS ON AND I CAN NO LONGER USE THAT DOOR AT ALL. THE SEATBELT ON THE REAR DRIVER'S SIDE WILL NOT BUCKLE INTO THE SOCKET AND MY CHILD HAS TO WRAP THE BELT AROUND HIM WHEN HE RIDES IN THE BACK. SHOULD AN ACCIDENT OCCUR, NOT ONLY WILL HE NOT BE FULLY COVERED BY HIS SAFETY SEAT, BUT IF WE SHOULD HAVE TO ESCAPE SUDDENLY, NEITHER OF US CAN JUST OPEN OUR DOORS AND GET OUT! THIS IS AN ONGOING ISSUE AND IT'S QUITE EXPENSIVE TO GET FIXED AT THE DEALER. ALSO, JUST RECENTLY WHILE DRIVING THE GEAR SHAFT POPPED OUT OF PLACE AND MY FATHER TAPED IT BACK ON SO THAT I'M ABLE TO GET BACK AND FORTH TO WORK AND SCHOOL.
