I was driving on a two lane hwy that is heavy oil truck traveled and my car stopped accelerating, I pulled off the road as much as I could because this Hwy doesn't have shoulders and the engine was running so I tried again to drive forward and the car would only move at idle speed. Because I was close to home I idled home and called a tow truck. I did have two oil trucks come up behind me and I prayed they would pay attention to my blinking lights. Thank God they did. Now Kia says if they can't replicate the problem they can't fix it. So I am suppose to drive this car until I get rear ended and seriously injured. I see in the complaints that this is an ongoing problem in the Kia's and why don't they figure it out and do a recall. I wonder how many people have been injured because of this or does someone have to die before they will do anything about it. I am afraid to drive this car now.
