Tl* the contact owns a 2009 kia rio5. After the vehicle was started, the air bag warning light illuminated. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic. The technician diagnosed that the passenger side air bag sensor needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. In addition, the contact mentioned that while driving approximately 45 mph after the brake was applied and released, the accelerator pedal was engaged and an abnormal noise emitted from the front of the vehicle. As a result, the vehicle jerked forward without warning. The vehicle was taken to the dealer where it was diagnosed that the transmission needed to be replaced. The vehicle was repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The failure mileage was 84,000.

Replaced all four engine coils and the spark plugs (the plugs i'd expect--it was very close to my 60k check up--where i would have done it anyway) i was not sure which category this part is in. .When i stopped at a stop sign the car started shaking-wildly.--and the check engine light went on. I had no choice but to keep moving when the light turned green-i was on a busy street--it was a little better when moving but when stopped it was a violent shake. Given the nature of the engine light-it was a solid--i believed i could keep driving since i wasn't far from a kia dealer. When i pulled in the service writer knew exactly what was wrong before using the computer because it is so common a repair on my vehicle--yet it is not a recalled item despite the dealership telling me it seems to happen on this model. Ff this is so common a kia dealer tells you they have to fix it on all cars like yours why hasn't there been a recall. Kia has to know this is an issue $600 later i was on my way.
