Consumer Description
I WAS TOLD BY THE DEALER THAT MY WHEEL SPEED SENSOR NEEDS REPLACING. I CHECKED ONLINE AND KIA ISSUED A RECALL FOR THIS BUT WAS TOLD THAT MY VIN# WASN'T ON THE LIST AND I WOULD HAVE TO PAY FOR THE FULL REPAIR. I CHECKED A NUMBER OF ONLINE FORUMS AND THOUGH IT SEEMS THAT KIA HAS ISSUED A RECALL BUT THEN KNOWINGLY REMOVED A NUMBER OF VEHICLES BY VIN# FROM RECALL LIST. THE DEALER WANTS TO CHARGE ME $310 FOR THE SENSOR AND $270 FOR THE LABOR. THIS NEED TO BE INVESTIGATED AND THE COMPANY SHOULD COVER ALL VEHICLES ISSUED AS THEY RAN A CAMPAIGN TO COVER THE WHEEL SPEED SENSOR BEFORE CORRUPTION THEN PURPOSELY EXCLUDED VEHICLES FROM GETTING THE REPAIR AND NOW HAS DAMAGE TO THE SENSOR.
