Sephia

  • miles
Lights are blinking off and on constantly when I driving at night. I went to Kia dealership in williamsburg. They told me that they couldn't find the problem. That it will take them a couple of days. That I would be charge by the hour. I was so upset I left the dealerships and they charge me 350 dollars and my car was not fix. I was totally rip off by them. I also told them that same day to fix my air conditioner due to it was shutting off and on when I hit the brakes. When I using the gas pedal my air conditioner works and then when I hit the brakes that air conditioner shut off. The Kia dealer did not have clue what to do>>>>help!!it also doing this with the heat also.....I not sure on the exact date of service. I will find receipt and bank statements to go along with this.

Sephia 4-cyl

  • Automatic transmission
  • 70,000 miles
Over a period of time, approximately 70,00 miles on my car, the ac/heater fan motor will blow air intermittently, regardless of the fan's speed setting. Eventually, the fan stops blowing all together. This same problem has happened on my 1998 Kia Sephia as well.
