2015 Kia Sportage Brakes Problems

Your 2015 Kia Sportage had a pending recall repair for the brake system, but the required part wasn't available from the dealer for an extended period. While driving at 40 mph, your low battery warning light came on and the vehicle began to slow down on its own; you coasted to the side of the road and had it towed home. When you contacted the dealer about completing the recall, you were told the repair couldn't be done because your vehicle exceeded the mileage limit for the recall, and the manufacturer confirmed that an engine replacement the dealer recommended isn't covered under warranty. The issue may require addressing both the electrical system causing the battery warning and investigating why the engine needs replacement.

While driving your 2015 Kia Sportage, the ABS and traction control warning lights came on. Your dealer found that the ABS control module had failed. This issue may be related to a known manufacturer recall (Campaign 22V051000), and the failure occurred at 80,000 miles.

The current Kia Recall for the HECU related to the braking system/potential for an engine fire has been open since February. As an owner I received the letter in March. I have contacted both a dealership and Kia directly but have received no information regarding a helpful timeline for when the repair will be available. This has left me unable to use my vehicle for fear of an incident and injury to me and my family. The best response I was given is that I could rent a vehicle at my expense and apply for a refund from Kia directly but they are not offering any loaner vehicles or plans to remedy this issue. It has been over 3 months with no proper communication nor a fix in place.
