The National Highway Traffic Safety
Administration (NHTSA) provides 3
different ratings -
full-width frontal crash test
,
side impact crash test
, and
rollover resistance
. The frontal crash test indicates how
well the safety features and restraints
will protect an occupant in a head-on
collision. The side-impact test conveys
the chance of a severe chest injury,
while the rollover resistance rating
estimates the risk of rolling over in a
single vehicle crash.

Description:
|
On certain passenger vehicles, the rear caliper brake hoses may be out of position. An improperly positioned rear caliper brake hose may contact rear suspension components and over time breach the integrity of the hose. This would result in the loss of brake fluid, which could cause decreased brake function, leading to crash and personal injuries. Dealers will inspect the positioning of the rear caliper brake hoses and adjust or replace them free of charge. The recall is expected to begin in early September 2006. Owners may contact Kia at 1-800-333-4542.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM:WIRING
|
|
Description:
|
On certain passenger vehicles equipped with adjustable brake pedals, the stop lamp switch wiring harness may be out of position. An improperly positioned stop lamp switch wiring harness could make contact with the U-joint assembly of the steering column. Repeated contact may eventually cause the wiring harness insulation to chafe. Chafed insulation could cause a short of the wiring harness resulting in the loss of brake lights, engine stalling, or an inability to start the vehicle increasing the risk of a crash. Dealers will inspect the wiring harness for chafing and, repair if necessary. In addition, the dealer will secure the wiring harness to prevent contact with the U-joint assembly. The recall is expected to begin by the end of September 2006. Owners may contact Kia at 1-800-333-4542.

Summary:
|
All new and all good for 2006.
By Sam Moses, NewCarTestDrive.com
The all-new Kia Sedona is a great-looking minivan with a V6 engine having the most power in the class, and a suspension that's second to none. The interior is well thought out, with standard seven-passenger seating, easily convertible to a carpeted cargo van, while providing an abundance of storage compartments. The Sedona lacks nothing, except all-wheel drive. It sends a clear signal that the Korean carmaker intends to be a player, and it proves that Kia has the engineering expertise to build excellent cars.NewCarTestDrive.com correspondent Sam Moses filed this report from San Diego, California. |
|
Overview:
|
The Kia Sedona is all-new for 2006 and, based on the time we've spent with it, it appears to be a compelling value among minivans, offering convenience, comfort, style and performance. The front-wheel-drive Sedona has just about everything the Honda Odyssey has, except the reputation, for a lot less money. The 2006 Kia Sedona was designed by studying every other minivan in the class, choosing the best features, and improving them. It uses a new high-tech V6 engine that more than matches the Odyssey in power, a responsive new five-speed automatic transmission, and a sophisticated and steady suspension. From the outside, the all-new Sedona looks classy and stylish. Inside, there's seven-passenger seating with seats that easily collapse to create a vast cargo space. Every cabin convenience known to man is either standard or available; there are storage spaces everywhere you turn, and no fewer than 14 cupholders. And the Sedona achieves five-star crash certification, all for a base price of $22,995.
