Anyone ever heard of a A/C bracket causing a weird vibration/sound in
a 2005 Kia Sedona? The service department claims they have a
heavier-duty bracket that makes it go away. To me it sounds like a
bearing going out on the front end of this motor.

I believe it's covered under warranty. They had to order the part and
I'm waiting at this point so I thought I would ask.

Have no fear, they are telling you the truth. There is an updated
bracket available for the Sedona for your exact complaint. The
updated part uses a better metal bushing system to absorb the
vibration caused by the A/C compressor.

Jup when you turn on the a/c in some sedonas they seem to make a
growlling sound.. turn the a/c off and its just fine.
kia may or may not have a fix.
