Kia Motors America (Kia) is recalling certain 2015-2017 Sedona vehicles. The Smart Junction Box (SJB) software logic may not properly interpret the signals received from the multifunction switch, which could cause the turn signal to activate in the opposite direction of what the driver intended.
A turn signal activating in the opposite direction of what was intended by the driver increases the risk of a crash.
Kia Motors America (Kia) is recalling certain 2015-2018 Sedona vehicles equipped with manually-adjusted front passenger seats. Over time, the Occupant Detection System (ODS) wiring harness located underneath the front passenger seat may break from the seat being occupied.
If a child is in a child seat in the front seat, a broken ODS wiring harness will not prevent the front passenger air bag from deploying in the event of a crash, increasing the risk of injury to the child.
Kia Motors America (Kia) is recalling certain 2015-2018 Kia Sedona vehicles equipped with a power sliding door (PSD). The PSD may not auto-reverse when its closing is obstructed.
If the door closes on an occupant, there is an increased risk of an injury.

HAD TURNED ON THE AIR IN THE SEAT AND SMELLED A PLASTIC BURNING SMELL WHEN I PARKED MY CAR AND WENT IN MY HOUSE TO GET MY SWIMSUIT AND TOWEL AND RETURNED OUTSIDE SMOKE WAS ROLLING OUT OF THE CAR. THE CAR WAS ON FIRE AT THE DRIVERS SIDE SEAT.
THE ENGINE STOPPED AFTER DRIVING THROUGH A SMALL BUMP AT THE PARK LOT (LOW SPEED), ACCOMPANIED BY STEERING WHEEL LOCKING BY ITSELF. TRIED TO RESTART THE CAR AND IT DIDN'T WORK. JUMP START WAS ALSO UNSUCCESSFUL. THE CAR WAS TOWED TO THE NEARBY DEALERSHIP. AFTER DAYS OF WAITING, I WAS TOLD PROBLEM CAN NOT BE DIAGNOSED BUT THEY OFFER TO REPLACE THE COMPUTER. NOW I AM WAITING FOR THEIR NEW RESULT.
THE SIDE PANEL ON THE DRIVER'S SIDE CAME OPEN IN THE GARAGE DURING THE NIGHT AND FAILED TO CLOSE WHEN DISCOVERED. LUCKILY WE WERE NOT DRIVING IT. *TR
