 Description of the problemI own a 2016 kia sedona lx. Vehicle is stationary. I began having problems with the driver's side sliding door not latching when closing a few months ago. The thing is, i rarely ever use that side for loading or unloading. More times than not i use the passenger side (curb side) door. When the door is attempting to latch, it makes a very weird sound like it is groaning. It closes, but does not latch properly. According to the dashboard, the door is still open. I took it to the original dealer and they said i need to replace the motor and cable at a cost of over $700. I've also had a fuel injector go bad $580. These situations make me wonder about your "reliability" statements. I found a technical service bulletin (sa-210) relating to sedonas, 2015~2016 model years, group bod, number 116, dated november, 2015. It describes what to do to correct "a vehicle which may exhibit an inoperative power sliding door." my van, according to the vin, falls within the dates that are mentioned in the bulletin (1/6/15 - 7/6/15). To me, this seems like the bulletin pertains to my vehicle. The psd is definitely not operating correctly. Since it is not operating correctly in total, i submit therefore, that the latch is inoperable.
