A part which was replaced during a recall, failed. The Kia dealership wants to charge me $800 to replace that part. Plus, not cover a car rental. I feel the charge is unjustified. The car hesitated and cut off 300 miles from my home. The check engine light came on, and I feared continuing to drive the car

Yesterday I was approaching a yellow light. The light changed to red as I was coming to a complete stop. I was at a complete stop waiting for the light to change so I could make a left turn. Suddenly the truck shut off completely. I then put my foot on the brake and put the truck in park so I could try to restart it. The truck restarted with no problems. This is the second incidence of the truck shutting off completely. The first occurrence was in January or February of this year. I had entered a left turning lane and was at a complete stop waiting to turn left when the truck shut off completely. I again placed my foot on the brake and placed the truck in park. I was then able to restart the truck. I reported the first incident to nalley Kia stonecrest in lithonia ga when I was at my service appointment. They said they could not find anything wrong with the truck.I have also reported this most recent incident to them so they look into it at my upcoming service appointment on October 14th 2017.

The Kia Sorento 2016 my family and were driving and the car went into "limp mode" on a busy street. We nearly has an accident. It was towed to the dealer. The dealer did not know why it occurred. They said they secured the wiring and returned the car to us. Approximately a week later the car went into "limp mode" again on another busy road again putting us in danger of having an accident. It was towed to the dealer. They said that they then replaced the throttle. We are not confident it will not occur again.
