On my way to work i took the same route that i always take. i was going about 25mph and all of a sudden all of the lights came on ( check oil, battery, emergency brake, tire pressure, airbag, and check engine) the steering wheel completely locked up causing my car to swerve right into a community mail box. my windshield is broken, the front passenger side is off and the two passenger side tires are both flat. when i got my car in march of this year three days after i got it it had started doing this i took it back and it was in the shop for more than 3 months. when they had told me this problem was fixed i trusted that they were right but unfortunately it led me to this... the dealership has not returned my phone call and my insurance does not cover for a rental car. i have 2 children and my job does not pay me enough to just pay and get a new car or pay and have this car fixed. i am very unhappy with the responses about this car. why would these cars be sold to people. *tr
I no longer have the car, so i cannot provide the vin number at this time. (i can get it, with some work involved). i have pictures of the car after the crash. i live in rural iowa. deer start their rut in october. i swerved to miss a deer, on a two lane road. went down a 40 foot ditch, nose first. because the bottom of the ditch was a gully, the front of the roof, the hood, the front lights, etc. were all destroyed. not one of their airbags deployed. they are not a part of the news round of airbags, but i want this on record. again, i can supply pictures, and it will be obvious that at least one of the 8 airbags should have deployed. please, look into the 2007 kia spectra's air bags. look to see if others have had the same problem. i would appreciate it very much. i am not looking for money, i bought the car for my daughter (when she was six, with the ten year warranty, i intended to pass it on to her, when she got her license..... boy am i glad i was involved in the crash, and not her, seeing is how that is the exact reason why i decided to buy the kia.
Tl*the contact owns a 2007 kia spectra. while driving 20 mph, the vehicle veered to the right when attempting to make a left turn. the vehicle flipped over and was destroyed. the road conditions were clear. the vehicle has not been inspected. the current and failure mileages were 600. updated 06/22/07 *tr
