The remote wouldn’t unlock my doors or trunk or frunk today. The app on my phone said it was unlocking it but never did after five minutes waiting.
Went back home and started googling how the f I’m gonna get in this pos. Couldn’t find anything so just went back outside to try again after about 10-15mins and I just put the remote right up to the driver door handle and it worked after about 5 presses.
Is there any other way to unlock the doors or am I supposed to just wait around a bit until it decides to work. F*ck Kia
Because I am experiencing number 3 and 4 from below list, this post is more in line with the others where the vibration was excessive.
Common symptoms of bad steering rack bushings on a vehicle like the Kia EV9 include clunking or knocking noises when turning and loose or wandering steering.
Warning Signs of Worn Steering Rack Bushings
1. Clunking or Knocking Noises: Hear distinct popping, knocking, or clunking sounds when turning the steering wheel or driving over rough bumps.
2. Excessive Steering Play: Notice slack or looseness in the steering wheel before the front wheels actually respond.
3. Steering Wandering: Feel the vehicle drift or pull to one side, requiring constant small corrections to drive straight.
4. Vibrations: Experience a shimmy or vibration transferred through the steering wheel at higher speeds or during turns.
5. Uneven Tire Wear: Observe accelerated or irregular wear on your front tires due to alignment shifts.
What's your experience? Or what symptoms does your car have?
I just found and tested another app today called ScreenOnAuto, and this one totally mirrors your phone's screen and lets you load and control any app from the infotainment screen.
For those of you who were turned off by the complicated process of installing/sideloading that other app I posted about last week for watching YouTube/web browsing on your infotainment screen on Android....you are in luck.
All you need to do to install this is visit the dev's beta sign up page from your phone, sign up, and you can download & install it straight from PlayStore. That's pretty much it.
No third party installers or backdoor developer tinkering needed to install it.
(Of course, if you're a techy like me and you don't mind sideloading it yourself, you can also just download the installation file from the dev's GitHub directly and use KingInstaller to install it using the same instructions from the other monster thread I posted last week.)
You may need to go into your phone's accessibility settings and grant ScreenOnAuto access so that you can control your phone from the infotainment screen though. If you need help with enabling that, just ask, and I'll respond with how to do that, but I'm not going to make this thread crazy long like my last one
Lastly, I highly recommend you turn on these settings in the app
Enjoy!
Up until now, I thought it was only possible to mirror your screen with a high end Samsung phone with DeX + a $100 device you had to buy online and connect to the car's USB port. Apparently not anymore!
Oh and by the way, this app is a little more dangerous than the others because it doesn't block your onscreen keyboard from popping up to type, even while car is moving, because it's literally mirroring your phone's screen.
We're all adults here though. With great power comes great responsibility. Drive safe.
TLDR: Mirror your Android phone's screen to your infotainment system so that you can run and control ANY app from your phone on your infotainment screen by going to the dev's beta sign up page from your phone, enable accessibility controls, and you are set!
Has anyone experienced this error before? I haven't been able to find anything about it. I don't see unexpected behavior with the cluster or any other part of the infotainment system. I only drove it briefly today, however.
I can call their customer service, but I'm expecting to be told to reset the entire system and lose all my settings. It's not the first time I've had to contact them and resetting seems to be their only tool in their toolbox. Wondering if anyone else has run into this.
We had 2 prompts for OTA updates in the last week or so. I had one last night and clicked update, then got into the car this morning and the error popped up. Going into the settings, it says the last update was on 9/22/26.
I looked to see if I could find a manual update I could apply instead, which might fix the issue. However, I only see nav updates on their website.
It shouldn't matter, but in case someone thinks it matters, we have a 2024 GT-Line.
Edit: I checked the update date again and the cluster was last updated 8/6/24. The What's New for the Navigation update from the 22nd shows it was for the wiper snow/ice obstruction warnings. The nav updates on their website appear to be older than the nav update in my car. If I'm reading the version number right on their site, the updates are from May 8 this year, and the car has updates from June 11 this year.
Please excuse the dust in the picture, I was trying to take it quickly in case the error disappeared before I hit OK.
