Rio

  • 42,000 miles
The contact owns a 2006 Kia Rio. The contact stated that the vehicle would stall upon decelerating and the engine warning light would illuminate on the instrument panel. Typically, the vehicle was able to restart immediately after the failure. In addition, the vehicle would vibrate abnormally when in fifth gear while driving between 40-60 mph. The dealer replaced the throttle body and the fuel pump, but the failure recurred shortly after the repair. The failure has not been properly remedied. The contact called the manager of the service department and is currently waiting for a response regarding the cause of the failure. The failure mileage was 42,000 and current mileage was 43,997.
