I have been collecting information since Nov 2006. I had my car fail and got Hyundai to Repair it for the Right front control arm rusting off. I have since spoke to over 70 people who have gotten thier cars fixed with my information and with little hassle. Hyundai consume affair is 800 633 5151. I can be contacted at *********************tntnknb@juno.com***************************** As far as kias go They share alot of components as the Hyundai. I would call Kia's consumer affairs and file a claim and with nhtsa.gov.
