What owners wrote

Have had our 2006 kia sedona van in the shop for passenger sliding door not closing...I will go to close the door, and the door slides right back open and doesn't even latch. This has happened too many times too count now, and this is a brand new van. This is very scary, especially when you don't know if it is going to fly open when you are driving down the road with your kids in the car.

January 2007

Power side passenger door opens without warning when in motion. Does not do this all the time just out of the blue no warning. The vehicle has been in the shop several times for the doors and as well as other problems. My main concern is the doors. I have 3 children 3, 7 and 10 and use the vehicle as little a possible and no longer take their friends as well as our dog in this vehicle. I purchased the kia sedona ex in july 14,2006 and it has only 15,165.00 miles on it.
