I was driving on route 55 with my 2yr old daughter and I was going 70mph when the tread separated from the tire causing my car to fishtail in between both lanes on the highway until I was able to gain control again and got my car to the shoulder of the highway. The defective tire is a firestone wilderness ht 225/70r15

We have a 2005 sedona which we love. It's been a great car for us. Unfortunately, we have had ongoing issues with it for some time now. Our main problem and concern right now is with the front end struts and or alignment. The noise and knocking at low speeds (especially when accelerating from a stand-still) is troublesome, but more troublesome is that we constantly need to replace the front tires. We are going on our 4th set of new tires (for the front alone) due to alignment issues. No balancing or alignment work has helped. After hours of research on line, it seems that the front brakes may be undersized causing the rotors to over heat and warp. The struts also seem to have a wrong type of mount system and have to be replaced. There are numerous complaints to be found on the web from people with similar issues. There is a tsb on the topic (cha015) regarding new strut mounts, but we are not sure what to do about it now.

The problem is getting worse and we fear that there is a safety concern here.

I am writing a complaint about the rotors and brakes on my 2005 kia sedona. I know many others that own the same type of van and are having the same problem. I have taken it in the dealer and they have told me that they know and are aware of the problem but there is nothing they can do. They have told me that the rotors need to replaced and that the brakes also need to be. I have taken it in several time to have my brakes checked and have been told that they are fine and that there is something wrong with the rotors and that it is a dealer problem. I would like for this to be looked into more as to I would not want to have an accident with such a problem to my van.

Tl*the contact owns a 2005 kia sedona. While driving 10 MPH, the rear passenger wheel detached from the vehicle. The vehicle was towed to a mechanic for repair. Through online research, the contact discovered the federal safety agency campaign id number 05v232000 (wheels); however, her VIN was not included in the recall. She felt that the vehicle was unsafe to drive because the wheel bearings were very unsafe. The mechanic stated that this was a common issue with her particular vehicle. The current mileage was 80,500 and failure mileage was 79,800.

In reference to campaign id number: 05v232000. My kia sedona has the defective wheel bearings as indicated by the report, but somehow has not been included in the original recall. My vehicle is being serviced by kiefer kia in eugene, oregon. The dealership is making, and paying for, necessary repairs. To my understanding, had we not found this issue before our warranty had expired we would have been liable for the cost of repair. I would like to see this recall extended through my VIN #, if your findings support my complaint. More-so for reason to cover any other past/future recalls found that our van may be affected by. Thank you for your time.

Tl*the contact owns a 2005 kia sedona. While driving approximately 45 MPH, the wheel hub separated from the vehicle. The failure caused her to crash into a tree. A police report was filed. The vehicle was towed to a shop and the contact was informed to call the manufacturer. The insurance company stated that they would not repair the vehicle because it was a manufacturer defect. She then searched online and discovered recall number 05v232000 (wheels). The manufacturer stated that her vehicle was not included in the recall because it applied to alloy wheels, not aluminum. She believes that her vehicle should be included in the recall. The current and failure mileages were 78,041.

I bought my 2005 kia sedona in september 2005. In the month of april I noticed my hub caps were peeling. When I contacted my kia dealer he informed me that it was not a defect but instead they wheels must have been cleaned with an acid base cleaner. I told him I had already contacted my car detailer and they said they do not use any cleaner like that because they are well aware of the fact this can happen. When I relayed this to the service manger at the dealership he said they must be wrong. But in any case he would replace only the ones that were peeling and would only do it this one time. From now on I would have to purchase them. He also said he had other customers with the same problem and he only replaced theirs once and some have paid to have them replaced up to four times in the past year. But again he said it's not kia's problem. I think he needs to rethink this and kia does to. They use cheap plastic hub caps and need to do something about it.
