2007 Kia Sedona: check engine light

Filed Aug 5, 2025 · Electrical, Fuel system · UT

Unknown... So whenever it gets hot in the summertime lately. My car has an issue starting sometimes it doesn't start and I've taken it in have the mechanic look at it. They can't figure out what's going on with that. They say that it's known issue that they've had and they told me to Bang on the relay inside my vehicle. And sometimes that starts up right away and other times it takes a little bit for my car to start. They could not figure out what was causing it and sometimes all of my lights on my dashboard light up my air bag, ABS, check engine. Those will light up and I think it's something to do with the electrical or the fuel system. I don't know, i've replaced parts on it and I'm still having the issue. I don't know what is going on. I've replaced some fuses and they've blown so that's why I'm thinking it's something to do with the electrical. My mechanic couldn't figure out what it was and he says he has had many kias have the same issue.

While driving the vehicle, you suddenly loose power. The ESC off light and engine light come on. You are not able to accelerate. It's like the pedal is not there. You could be going 50 MPH and then suddenly drop down to 20 to 30 MPH without warning. There is a few codes that come up: p2106 throttle actuator control system-forced limited power p2138. Throttle/pedal position sensor/switch "d"/"e" voltage correlation. There are other codes that came up before and it also caused these issues. This happens while you are driving. Sometimes you can tell its going to turn on the ESC light and engine light and going to loose power and sometimes it happens all of a sudden. When researching online about this problem, its a common problem with kia especially the sedonas.

City driving down a busy road at 45 miles an hour and the car speed began dropping, check engine light came on, and gas pedal would go all the way to the floor but not give gas to the engine. Pulled car into a nearby parking lot. After sitting for about 15 minutes, my mechanic showed up. He started the car and the gas pedal worked. We drove it to my home. Now I am afraid to drive it, it could happen again, and cost for fuel system repair is huge for me!

I have read several complaints about this same thing I have experienced now on three separate occasions. I too have suddenly lost power and the ESC light and check engine light comes on. The gas pedal is virtually dead, you push the pedal to the floor and all you get is about 1500 RPM and about 20 MPH. If you pull over and turn the car off and re-start it, it will work. Very dangerous to be going down the road and suddenly lose power.

1. Driving van on highway when ESC and check engine warning lights came on simultaneously. 2. Vehicle suddenly loses all acceleration. Has happened twice in the past two weeks, both times at highway speeds. 3. Dealership indicates that this is a chronic issue with multiple models and that replacement parts have been redesigned to reduce failure, but that issues are so prevalent that parts are on back order and that it may take "2 weeks or 2 months" to receive parts to correct the problem.
