problem #2

Forte S 2.0L

  • Automatic transmission
  • 34,400 miles

To have a such low miles and a major problem like this to occur, is beyond frustrating. Indeed, having it done multiple times in such a short period of time tells me there must be a manufacturing defect.

Forte S 2.0L

  • Automatic transmission
  • 35,105 miles

I am beginning to think this is a problem that will be ongoing. Again the ignition coil replacement was needed. I could tell the car was running somewhat odd. Startups were very strong and car would not start on first turn on a few occasions.
