While maneuvering my Kia EV6 into my garage, the vehicle accelerated unexpectedly and struck the garage wall. I believe the acceleration may have been unintentional or due to a malfunction. I request review of any vehicle event data

The rear door of my KIA EV6 intermittently fails to open even when the vehicle is unlocked. The issue has been recorded on video and reported to an authorized KIA dealer, but it has not been repaired. A child safety seat is installed in the rear seat, and this defect creates a serious safety risk in an emergency where immediate access to the child is required. The vehicle is unsafe due to this defect.
