| I've had a number of problems with my 2003 kia sedona. initially one of the gaskets leaked and had to n be replaced. the windshield cracked overnight in the garage when there was no weather extremes. the wheel bearings went in the front tire. recently the engine had to be replaced because it was leaking and after replacing all the gaskets it couldn't get pressure. the driver's door handle broke, the lumbar support stopped working. the hood wouldn't close properly. and on top of all those things i've had 2 blowouts to the front driver's tire in a 2 year period. the dealer says there is nothing wrong with the wheel but i'm not sure he even checked because of the engine problems he had to deal with. *jb | |||

| I purchased my 2003 kia sedona in november 2005. so far the following have been repaired or replaced: front hub assembly left side once, right side 2x's, the alternator, the wiper motor, two recalls, the battery, now at 65,000 miles the transmission is shot and needs to be replaced and the timing belt has been replaced. however the warranty company says they wont replace it because the cost of the repair exceeds the value of the car. this is simply outrageous. i have brought the car to the dealer for every service needed. transmission, oil filter ect. *tr | |||
