Kia Carnival 2016 Problems

The crash testing has been done by ANCAP and, even though Kia recently had a safety glitch with its Carnival, I’m expecting a five-star result for the Sportage.

You don't have to look any further than the Sorento's stablemate at Kia, the Carnival. It's a great family machine and even shares much of its basic engineering with the Sorento.

You’re correct; it is nothing to do with Australian safety standards. Take it back and ask them to wheel align it.
