| My 12 year old daughter was adjusting the seat back in the rear row of the kia sedona - when she unlatched the adjustment latch the rear seat back sprung forward (she was facing the rear to see the seat move) with such force that it hit her in the mouth and drove her bottom braces through her bottom lip - she required immediate medical attention to unhook the braces and then plastic surgery to close the wound (6 stitches in both the inside and outside of her mouth). *tr | |||

| Tl*the contact owns a 2006 kia sedona. the contact stated that the arm rest in the middle row seats has two plastic pieces that do not meet or fit over the arm rest. while his daughter was seated in one of the middle row seats, she moved right to left and the plastic piece caused a severe laceration to her skin. he notified the dealer and the manufacturer and they stated that the seat was designed in that manner. the manufacturer provided him with reference number k1320663. the failure mileage was 4,000 and current mileage was 6,000. | |||

| During harder braking in a kia sedona van, the second row seat flipped forward and clobbered the driver's (mine) head. i was so startled that i had no control of the vehicle for a few seconds. nothing was hit. this was because the second row seats flip forward to allow rear entry but they do not necessarily re-latch when putting them upright again, either from a lack of re-latching force or debris/carpet interference with the latch. *jb | |||
