 Parking sensor failed and my husband was in a accident, in our now 3 week old 2011 kia sedona, they sold us the floor model, which had to be jumpstarted we thought nothing of it, took it in bc low gas milege, and bc the door was lose, then 2 days ago my husband was backing out of a spot the alarm never sounded, he is fine so is the other driver, well we went to walmart and went to back out and th esensor was going crazy, so i got out and nothing was there but when i sttood directly behind the car the alarm never sounded, then i backed my husband out and hoped in, the alarm started to sound again. we have 3 children, we got this car bc we new it would be a safe choice but we have not had it long and are really upset by all of this.

 Head rest forces head down when sitting straight due to back pain. contacted kia and they said not their problem. the choice for a driver with back issues that require sitting up straight are to remove the head rest or drive while experiencing back pain. neither option is safe.

VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL

 Tl- the contact owns a 2011 kia sedona lx. the contact stated while the vehicle sits in traffic for a few moments when the accelerator was depressed the vehicle was very slow to accelerate and at other times the vehicle accelerated faster than normal. the contact experienced the failure numerous times. the vehicle was taken to two kia dealers whom advised the vehicle was operating normal, because the throttle control was electrical. the failure mileage was 0 and the current mileage was 4,700. li
