2017 KIA SEDONA Recalls — Canada & USA

The 2017 Kia Sedona has 3 recalls, the most serious involving the power sliding door and the front passenger seat sensor, both of which can raise the risk of injury to occupants. On vehicles with the power sliding door option, the door may fail to reverse when something or someone is in its path as it closes. Separately scoped to vehicles with manually-adjusted front passenger seats, the wiring harness beneath that seat can break over time from normal use, disabling the sensor that detects whether a child seat is present. When that sensor fails, the front passenger airbag may deploy in a crash even with a child in the seat, which can seriously injure a small occupant. There is also a software issue affecting the turn signal: the junction box controlling the multifunction switch can misread the driver's input and activate the signal in the opposite direction of the intended turn, which can mislead other drivers and increase crash risk.
