I bought this van for my wife about 5 years ago. I bought a Trailblazer and she took that and I started driving this. I was working as an asst. manager and was working a lot of hours and coming home one night and fell asleep just north of rt126 on interstate 55. I bought all of the sheet metal to fix it and had a body shop pull the front end out and hang all the sheet metal. I have been driving the van every day to work and the brakes in the front are starting to not release right away. With the brakes the way they are it makes driving it in the rain pretty interesting. I had the van aligned at pepboys and they did a ok job, the steering wheel isn't straight and before the breaks started acting up it didn't pull. The air bags did deploy which broke the windshield so I had a new windshield put in it. This van is not in anyway perfect but it only has 88000 miles and everything still works. It has the DVD system in for the back seats and it works fine I have the remote for it also. power seats I changed the rear hatch because my back window was broken out in my driveway. There is in a dent over the right side rear door that was caused by a branch falling on it. The front tires are new the rear could use replaced. I wouldn't mind keeping it and giving it to my 16 year old daughter but my wife hates seeing it anymore. The van does run great I would drive it any place I have drove it to Wisconsin since the accident. With a little work this could be a great van again I just don't want to deal with it anymore. I am going to put the reserve high but I am wanting to sell it so if the reserve isn't met that doesn't mean I won't sell it. I like motorcycles and suv's pickups I just want something different. If you have any questions just ask my number is 630-401-0001 I prefer text but call in you need to just please don't call after 10 p.m. central time.

208k Kia Soul models recalled over broken pedals

Fri, Mar 13 2015

Kia is recalling a whole bunch of Souls over accelerator pedals that may bend and fracture. A grand total of 208,858 vehicles are affected, all built between July 21, 2013 and January 8, 2015. Both the standard Soul and its EV counterpart are included in this recall. According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, "If the vehicle has a bent or broken accelerator pedal, the driver may have difficulty accelerating the vehicle, increasing the risk of a crash." Sounds about right – a broken pedal under your right foot certainly can't be good. Kia will add supporting rubber underneath the pedal stopper in these affected vehicles. The Korean automaker will notify owners, and of course, the repair work will be performed free of charge. Look for this recall campaign to officially kick off later this month. NHTSA's official statement is below. Report Receipt Date: MAR 02, 2015 NHTSA Campaign Number: 15V123000 Component(s): VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL Potential Number of Units Affected: 208,858 Manufacturer: Kia Motors America SUMMARY: Kia Motors America (Kia) is recalling certain model year 2014-2015 Soul and Soul electric vehicles manufactured July 21, 2013, to January 8, 2015. A section of the accelerator pedal may bend and fracture. CONSEQUENCE: If the vehicle has a bent or broken accelerator pedal, the driver may have difficulty accelerating the vehicle, increasing the risk of a crash. REMEDY: Kia will notify owners, and dealers will add a supporting rubber underneath the pedal stopper, free of charge. The recall is expected to begin March 24, 2015. Owners may contact Kia customer service at 1-800-333-4542. Kia's number for this recall is SC116. NOTES: Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), or go to www.safercar.gov. Related Video:

Kia previews off-road Sorento for SEMA

Mon, Oct 26 2015

Kia hasn't told us much about what it has in store for us at SEMA this year. But it is giving us a glimpse of what's to come in this latest teaser video. The short clip provides a sneak peek at the PacWet Adventure Sorento, an evidently rough-and-tumble take on the Korean automaker's midsize sport utility vehicle. Just what's going into it remains to be seen, but we can already see part of the package. There's a new tubular and sheetmetal front bumper, a snorkel intake, roof rack, winch, auxiliary lighting, knobby tires, and a Kermit-green paint job. We'd expect some sort of jacked-up suspension, too, considering this custom is for the aftermarket-obsessed crowd at SEMA. Given the brief statements Kia has issued to date, it would appear that the Sortento is just one of a variety of vehicles the company is preparing for the Vegas tuner expo. Each is poised to represent a different American region, and we're looking forward to seeing how the others take shape, as well.

Enjoy this high-speed coast-to-coast tour to whet your appetite for what we will unveil November 3rd in Las Vegas. More to come. #KiaWanderlust
