POWER TRAIN
AS I WAS BACKING OUT OF MY DRIVEWAY, 6 MONTHS AFTER I PURCHASED MY BRAND NEW 2007 KIA RIO, I HEARD A LOUD NOISE AND FELT MY CAR LURCH SIMULTANEOUSLY, AS IF I HAD BEEN HIT BY A CAR. WHEN I TRIED TO RESUME BACKING UP MY CAR HAD POPPED OUT OF REVERSE. ALTHOUGH IT DOESN'T HAPPEN FREQUENTLY, IT DOES HAPPEN I HAVE HAD PEOPLE IN THE CAR WHEN IT HAPPENS. WHEN I TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP, I WAS TOLD THEY "COULDN'T DUPLICATE IT". *TR
