The Kia Sorento is under investigation for what the National Highway Transportation Safety Agency calls a “sunroof implosion” that can injure the driver or passengers.
The preliminary evaluation comes after the agency received 15 complaints of shattering sunroofs on model year 2011-2013 Kia Sorento SUVs, according to a report filed by the NHTSA. Thirteen of the complaints claim that the sunroofs broke while the car was in motion. One complaint alleges the driver suffered minor cuts from the issue.
The problematic panoramic sunroofs are part of a list of optional equipment on the Kia Sorento. Kia has also been looking into the issue on its own.
“To date, the identified cause of investigated sunroof breakage has been debris impact or hail,” Kia said in a recent statement. “Kia Motors will continue to research this issue and share the results of its research information with NHTSA.”
The investigation has an impact on over 64,100 Sorento models in the U.S. The preliminary evaluation is the first step in a process that may lead to a vehicle recall.

December 13, 2012

Toronto, ON – December 13, 2012 –Insurance Bureau of Canada (IBC) released today its annual list of the top 10 most frequently stolen vehicles in Canada.  This year there is a new, but returning, hot target for thieves – the 2000 Honda Civic SiR 2DR.  In fact Civics take up the top two places in this year’s list.  Civics have always been high on the list.  It’s a popular vehicle for young people and many of them are stolen and chopped for parts. 
The Civic replaces the 2009 Toyota Venza 4-door, which was last year’s number one most frequently stolen vehicle nationally but is the second most stolen vehicle in Quebec.  But more than the change of the top target, investigators are seeing new trends and have more warnings for unsuspecting victims.
The top 10 most frequently stolen vehicles in Canada are:
  1. 2000 HONDA CIVIC SiR 2DR
  2. 1999 HONDA CIVIC SiR 2DR 
  3. 2006 CHEVROLET TRAILBLAZER SS 4DR 4WD 
  4. 2007 FORD F350 SD 4WD PU
  5. 2005 CADILLAC ESCALADE 4DR AWD

How to avoid Car Accidents:

Even though car accidents happens on roads due to drunk driving, over speeding are a separate issue which require major intervention session for such drivers or self realization of their mistakes, still I like to bring your attention to one aspect of having maximum capability of vehicle to stop under normal and emergency conditions.

Quality of Brake Pad and/or Shoes are very important.

There are cheap brake pads and shoes which are available for $20-30 for front pads.

There are good quality brake pads available from dealerships and after market parts shops like Lordco, Napa, Canadian Tire etc and it my be expensive to start with but it is worth while to have it because it will last long and better material offers better braking.

Good quality Brake Pads, Brake Rotors and Tires works together to provide you good braking.

If one of it is a weak link in the braking system, you may not get best braking regardless of good quality of other parts.

There are other thinks that are also worth knowing about braking system and that is Brake shims, lubricants, anti squeak materials, Calipers, Brake Booster, Brake Master cylinder, Brake pedal, Brake lines, Brake fluid reservoir. I will cover this topic next time. I will also give some more explanation about Brake Pads/shoes materials and pricing.

It is responsibility of Repair Shop or Mechanic to guide you for best options, but due to various business ethics or competition, you may not get the best advice or may not get what you are paying for!

Avoid it! How? Let's discuss in detail next time.

WE may discuss best service shops in Surrey, BC as well.
