Cadenza

  • 9,500 miles
I purchased a new 2018 Kia Cadenza with 11 miles on it. I have had the car less than a year and it randomly stalls while in drive mode in motion and sometimes while sitting idle. It has stalled on the freeway, neighborhood streets, drive-way and on feeder roads. The car has been in and out of the dealership at least 5 times. Kia motors cannot figure out what's wrong with the vehicle. They placed a tracker in the vehicle and determined the crank sensor was malfunctioning. They replaced the crank sensor, I picked the vehicle up and less than 24 hours later the car stalled again. It stalled 2 additional times before returning it to the shop again this past week.
