So this is the 3rd time the same error happened. Car was parked outside with a temperature of - 26°c. Got the same "check hybrid engine system" error. Have it towed to the dealer and until now, they cant find any error. They cant duplicate the problem so they're waiting for a Kia assistance rep to arrive on Monday to check my vehicle. Just hoping we will be able to find the root of the problem

We bought a brand new Kia Niro last December 2018. Pick it up December 15, 2018. Everything was good untill after 13 days of ownership. a pop up error on the center screen appeared. It says "check hybrid engine system". This happened while the car was parked overnight with a temperature of -16. I called Kia and had the car towed to the dealership. They did a "reset" last January 1 and said the car was ok. so I picked it up January 2. Car was Ok for a few days and it happened again.
