NHTSA Complaint #11479949 — 2016 KIA SPORTAGE

This Recall has been ongoing since February 2022. In my travels I see hundreds of new KIA Sportages on the road but they can't come up with a single fuse to keep me from burning alive in my car? I am 70 years, working part time and need my job. I won't take the risk of transporting clients in my Sportage because of the potential danger and my employer is becoming impatient with this situation. My car sits out in the hot sun baking all summer because if it catches fire while in my garage I'm guessing my homeowner's insurance wouldn't pay because I KNEW there was a potential for fire. We are only weeks away from winter and do I scrape snow and ice off of my car at my age because KIA is busy cranking out new cars without a thought for the ones they have already put on the road? It's almost six months -- to engineer a simple fuse? They shouldn't be allowed to put a single new car on the road until they fix the dangerous ones they have already put on the road.
