This pertains to recall SC232. I have an open case on the car with Kia #15366890. The car was in for service in July 2022 when I was advised of the recall and the parts were ordered. I repeatedly check with the dealer regarding the status of the part and am told that it is on order. In December I was told there were three windshields coming into the dealer by the end of the month and the car would be serviced in January. According to the dealer, none showed up. As of today, May 22, 2023, the dealer advised the part is now on "international" back order. I advised the dealer that the windshield now leaks on both the driver's and passenger's sides. When calling Kia all I get is I am part of their Premium Care Department and they are checking into the part status. No timely follow-up from them either. The last time I spoke to them was about four weeks back when they called me about a month after I spoke to someone in their recall department. Everyone is nice, polite, and ful...

Engine

After hearing a ticking sound in my engine, I had it diagnosed by a Kia service department. They said bad lifters and cam shafts had been installed at the factory, and that sometime soon my engine was going to fail and they could say if it would seize or blow up or what, or how this would play out if this happened when I was driving. My car only has 76k miles, and the ticking sound is fairly quiet. Kia refuses to take the safe route and replace my engine. I do not feel safe driving this car.

Steering, electrical System

The vehicle steering wheel became hard to turn while driving. This could have caused serious accident and injury. The car also died on me while driving and impossible to turn the steering wheel while the vehicle is in motion. I then noticed a flashing light. This happened all at the same time and without notice. This could have been a major accident and I believe a serious defect as I saw too many KIA and Hyundai vehicles with the same complaints. Can this please be looked into? The vehicle next day refused to start. I paid $209.00 to get a new battery and then drove for about 1 hour, the same problem. The vehicle steering wheel locked up while I’m driving and almost didn’t turn while I going around a deep bend. Now it refused to turn on.
