Buying a used 2018 Kia Sedona? Check these 3 recalls first

3 NHTSA recalls · 48 owner complaints on file

The 2018 Kia Sedona has 3 recalls in this group, involving air bags that may fail to deploy, power sliding doors that may not auto-reverse, and seat sensor wiring that may break. Restraint systems and door operation need distinct checks. Engine concerns lead the 48 unverified NHTSA owner complaints with 21 reports, followed by electrical system at 11, air bags at 6, and structure at 3. The record includes 1 crash, 4 fires, and 1 injury, without verified causal links.

Before you buy

1. Get the 17-character VIN from the seller and run it at nhtsa.gov/recalls. It shows which recalls are still unrepaired on that exact car.
2. Confirm VIN-specific completion of both air bag and seat sensor wiring recalls.
3. Verify the sliding-door recall repair and have auto-reverse operation inspected.
4. Review engine and electrical repairs, including any reported fire history.
5. Open recalls are repaired free at any Kia dealer, whoever owns the car — an open recall is a to-do item, not a bill.
