Consumer Description
OPENED PREVIOUS NHTSA ID 11398106. ADDING ADDITIONAL INFO FOR ALL. MAIN ISSUE IS THE PAINT CHIPPING AND MAINLY PEELING SEVERELY ACROSS AND ABOVE WINDSHIELD WITH RUST. OTHER PAINT CHIPPING AROUND VEHICLE ALSO, MINOR. RESEARCH SHOWS THIS HAPPENING TO MAINLY THE 2014 KIA SORENTO SUV WITH (SNOW WHITE PEARL) PAINT COLOR. READ YOUR INFO TAG ON DRIVER SIDE DOOR JAM TO VERIFY. MINE WAS MANUFACTURED AUG/16/13 AT GEORGIA INC. NHTSA HAS ABOUT 105 PAINT COMPLAINTS OUT OF 461 ON THE 2014 KIA SORENTO SUV. I READ MOST UNDER 'STRUCTURE OR OTHER' LISTINGS. THERE IS ALSO A FACEBOOK PAGE FOR ALL TO VIEW AND COMPLAIN FOR 'KIA SORENTO PEARL WHITE PAINT PEELING, CHIPPING AND DELAMINATION'. HOPE THERE IS A LAWYER OUT THERE WHO HAS THIS ISSUE AND CAN FILE A CLASS ACTION SUIT FOR ALL OF US. BECAUSE KIA WON'T TAKE CARE OF THIS ISSUE. HOPEFULLY NHTSA WILL SEE IT AS A ISSUE, MAINLY WHEN THE PEELING OF PAINT AND RUSTING IS OCCURRING AROUND THE WINDSHIELD. THIS JEOPARDIZES THE TIGHT SEAL OF RUBBER HOLDING THE WINDSHIELD IN PLACE. GOD FORBID THE WINDSHIELD DETACHES WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY. THANK YOU ALL.
