Optima Hybrid EX

  • Automatic transmission
  • 16,000 miles

My 2013 Kia Hybrid randomly just starts flashing all of its symbols, the A.C goes out, the power goes out, almost like power steering. When it happens in traffic it nearly stalls, I push the gas and it doesn't go. It's very scary. Then I turn it off and rest it because the warning message says "Hybrid Safety warning, Do not drive, pull over Safely". After resting it, I can turn it back on, and the orange engine light is on, and the car still has no A.C and light power, almost only coasts. It is very dangerous. I brought it to the Kia Dealership last month when this happened and they said the connection was loose so they tightened it. Well, its happened again today, there is no way its the connection, all I know is it is a very dangerous problem and I am taking the car back in to Kia today to see what they say about it this time
