The engine of the car just died on me when I was turning right at the intersection. Unknown cause why the engine just died on me. I tried starting it, and it would start and die again. If I start the car and step on the gas, the engine does not die but once I release from the gas, the engine dies and I smell a strong gas odor.

The contact owns a 2016 Kia Sportage. While driving 10 mph, the vehicle hesitated and failed to backpedal for 2-3 seconds. The vehicle was taken to a dealer where it was diagnosed that a certain component failed and needed to be replaced. The contact did not know the exact component. The vehicle was repaired, but the failure recurred. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 19,000.

Takata recall when pulling out into traffic the gas petal sometimes doesn't work. This is a very unsafe condition, because of on coming traffic.
