Issues with idle stop and go. On 11/8/23 was at a light and stop and go was on. Light turned green took my foot off of the break and nothing happened then engine staled. Check engine light came on and then all other panel lights. Took two tries to get engine started again. I was in a busy intersection at rush hour. This is a huge safety issue. It has clitched at other times where took foot off break and engine took a moment to restart, but this is first stall. I now have a note in car to turn off every time I drive. I live in a high density area with lots of stop and go traffic and lights and cannot afford to get stuck or worse in an accident because of this. Kia needs to address this issue.

My car sensors go off when they aren-??t supposed to. My front collision sensor goes off when cars are 2 cars in front of me. My side sensors will go off when I-??m im the only one on a street. My console has electrical issues-?? internal issues. This car qualifies for Lemon Law. That-??s how many times I sent it in and they were unable to repair it. Please investigate Kia 2023 seltos. Thanks

I have been having issues with my touch screen in my car. I bought my car new and the console has not worked correctly. I-??ve had this issue with the console since 7/22-?? have been begging KIA America to fix it. Today I was driving backwards and my backup camera was on. Then when I drove forward the backup camera was still on after i put my car in drive. -??Ford issued a recall for 47,046 Bronco SUVs from the 2021 and 2022 model years with 8-inch center display screens because their backup cameras might still display a camera image even after the vehicle is no longer backing up. As a result, these vehicles are not in compliance with federal motor vehicle safety standards. -??(Google accessed 11/17/22) This car is a safety hazard and it should be recalled
