My ac/heater fan is no longer blowing out air. In addition, while braking, the brakes have always seemed to have not been performing as it should.

My panoramic sunroof exploded while i was driving on the interstate for no apparent reason. No impact; i saw nothing, witnesses behind me say nothing hit me, i wasn't under an overpass, i wasn't following anyone closely. Driving straight at about 75mph.

My 2015 kia sorento ignition went out and i had to have it towed into the dealership and cost me right at $500 for a new ignition. Making me leave with two keys, my original key will only operated the door and then new key operates only the ignition. My factory fob is no longer a part of the working ignition. I am seriously unhappy and find this hard to believe being that my kia has less that 88k miles on it.

We did not know what happened as we did not go…

Numerous times over the past couple of months, both the esc and dbc indicator lights will come on and stay on as i'm attempting to park the vehicle. This has prevented me from shifting the car into 'park' after pulling into a parking space as i can't get it to shift beyond 'neutral.' when this happens, i've had to shut the car off, and start it again. If the indicator lights go off after restarting, i can then shift…
