2016 Kia K900 Problems, complaints & recalls

There is a safety recall on my K900 Kia. That it could catch fire while driving or parked. I called the parts department of Kia and they said they do not have any remedy at this point. The recall notice states that if the repair is not going to be done in a timely manner that I have the right to put in the complaint with nhtsa which I am doing. My family and I are at risk while driving this car yet is a necessity that we have a vehicle. As well as the fact that it is a safety hazard even to be parked next to my...

My leather dash is rippling/tearing, I am afraid it is a risk of interrupting the passenger airbag deployment. I first noticed my leather dash rippling around the HUD area in April of 2022. In September of 22, it began rippling where the leather cover meets the hood. This April of 2023, it has begun rippling on the passenger airbag area. I have an appointment on 5/31/23 with Kalidy Kia to have them inspect my K900. There are no lights that appear for this issue unfortunately.

I want to make a formal complaint against High Desert Kia in Victorville California that they haven't taken the necessary steps to get this recall that's against my Kia K900 remedied quickly and this recall can cause a fire. A recall was sent to me in February 2022 and this recall still has not been complete so please I need your assistance to get this taken care of ASAP.

While driving with the lights in auto mode, the light flicker and sometime go off. I took the car to the dealer to have it repaired. I was charged over $700 for the repair. I have since found out that this is an issue as noted in NHTSA Campaign Number: 16V210000 (Exterior Lighting) however, the VIN was not included in the recall.

The contact owns a 2016 Kia K900. The contact stated while driving at an undisclosed speed at night, the headlights ceased to operate as needed. The dealer was not notified of the failure. The vehicle was not diagnosed nor repaired. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure. The contact related the failure to NHTSA Campaign Number: 16V210000 (Exterior Lighting) however, the VIN was not included in the recall. The failure mileage was 38,250.

My dashboard is bubbling up on my passenger and drivers side.

I drove to an appointment when I got ready to leave the car was fine then the epb light came on I put it into drive because I know that will release it, per the car manual instructions. It did not release the brakes and the car would not move. Had to call a tow truck the car was stuck in place. Per manual it states the epb will come on by itself at any time, I'm lucky it didn't come on and not turn off at a stop sign or traffic light. Electronic parking brake mode yes available for inspection upon request Electronic parking brake turn on its self and would not release leaving the car stuck where it put on the epb. Yes by the dealership No No warnings

The tires break loose in wet weather. The hankook optimo h426 tires, standard on this car are rated #41 of 42 available tires for this car (see tirerack.Com tests). Kia has put the worst tires available on their top line car! They have absolutely no grip in wet weather. They may work with the 6 cyl engine but are worthless with the v8 engine. I have had them break loose once in straight line acceleration and twice while turning corners in the first 1500 miles. Kia was no help so I have ordered high quality replacement tires on my own.

Thetraction control system (v8 engine) in combination with very poor traction tires (hankook optimo h426) may get you killed. While making right turns onto wet highway the left rear wheel breaks loose and the traction control tries to stop the wheel spin by applying the left rear brake which breaks the right rear wheel loose and then it's brake gets applied. After a few of these back and forths the traction control cuts power to the engine trying to get control of the rear wheel spin. So there you are in the middle...
