I just bought this car a month ago and have not been able to work in it as a lyft driver because there is always something wrong with it it's been in the shop more than i've drove it it makes a knocking noise and i'm not safe in the vehicle i did a history check on it and come to find out their are a bunch of recalls on it can anyone help me please?i was driving on a city street and highways.
As i began crossing the intersection (highway) i ended up getting t- boned halfway through the intersection by a pickup. he was speeding going roughly 60mph in a 45mph zone my kia optima sustained passenger side/ and frontal impact damage. the impact of the accident sent me skidding across the highway and none of my frontal airbags activated nor did the seatbelt lock up. this lead me to sustain heavy chest injuries from the impact of the steering wheel. also the car could not be shut off after the accident. the vehicle stayed running until emt disconnected the power to it.
I was involved un a rear end collision. i was struck from behind while stopped @ a traffic light. severe damage to the rear end of the car. no air bags deployed from the impact. i ended up hitting my head very hard on the steering wheel. no air bags deployed @ all from the collision.
Tl* the contact owned a 2016 kia optima. while driving approximately 49 mph, the contact's vehicle was rear ended by another vehicle. the contact mentioned that the front passenger seat was detached from the hinge. the air bags did not deploy. a police report was filed. the contact stated that there were multiple injuries sustained between the driver and passenger, which required medical attention. the vehicle was towed to an independent mechanic who deemed the vehicle destroyed. the dealer was not contacted. the manufacturer was notified and informed the contact not to let anyone view the vehicle because an investigator would be sent to perform an inspection. the approximate failure mileage was 42,000.

A car accident took place early sunday morning of september 25, 2016 in which the air bag failed to deploy resulting in severe injuries. kia was contacted and informed that a accident had taken place in a new vehicle that was purchased, and the airbag did not deploy, although it had passed the inspection at the dealership and should have been under warranty since the vehicle was purchased a few months prior. kia failed to correct the issue, although indicating they would send an inspector out to check the vehicle. later it was indicated the vehicle had 2 recalls associated with it (#1. 16v7050000 and #2. 16v231000), however, kia failed to honor the recalls or take responsibility for failing to properly inform of the defects. numerous attempts were made to reach someone at kia to resolve the matter, but each time a different representative indicated mr. gustavio valila was the person handling the matter and would respond in a timely manner. voice mails were left unreturned and emails were sent, however, mr. valila could not be reached. a year later a representative responded indicating that the air bag was not meant to deploy and that the company was sorry for the circumstance and situation. the company did not acknowledge or respond to the previous recalls that were not honored, nor did the company correct or resolve the concerns or make an effort to assist or provide a remedy for the injuries sustained due to the failure of the airbag not deploying. due to the accident and injuries sustained during the accident the driver died a week later. kia was informed of everything, along with receiving photos and paperwork associated with the incident (that a representative from the company requested), and has still chosen to accept no responsibility for the situation or do anything to resolve the previous matter / concerns...*bf *tt
