Amanti 4WD

  • Automatic transmission
  • 11,000 miles
Car-Kia sorento (no option on vehicle page for sorento) I have taken the Kia sorento now 4-5 times for the gas tank problem. The car will not allow me to pump gas freely. It keeps stopping every 30 cents or so. Quirk Kia has serviced 4 times and each time they have replaced parts from fuel filler neck to pumps to hoses to a pressure sensor, etc. I was told on 7/30/05 that the mechanic (on 3rd visit) that previously tried fixing my car broke a few things in the gas tank and there was a faulty part gasket. They said they replaced the parts. They did not give me a receipt. Now the problem continues and I feel unsafe when it has to do with gasoline not properly entering my vehicle. Why can't they fix it? my check engine light has been on 2 times because of the problem getting worse!
