VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL
HAVE HAD VEHICLE BACK INTO DEALER 5 TIMES, SINCE FEB 11 FIRST CHECK ENGINE AND ESC LIGHT ON AND VAN WOULD NOT GO PUSH DOWN ON GAS PEDAL AND NOTHING HAD IT TOWED IN. THEY REPROGRAMMED AND THEN FEB24TH ESC LIGHT ON AGAIN. WENT BACK IN THEY REPLACED STEERING ANGLER SENSOR. VAN STILL NOT RUNNING RIGHT DOWN SHIFTS ON ITS OWN. TOOK BACK THEY SAID FOUND NO PROBLEM TO HAVE TRANS FLUID CHANGED SO I DID AND IT STILL HAPPENED. THEN DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD THE VAN S BRAKES LOCK UP AND THE ENGINE REVVED UP AND ALMOST WENT THROUGH THE WINDSHIELD. CALLED DEALER NEXT DAY THEY SAID I COULD NOT GET AN APPT UNTIL OCT6 ALMOST A MONTH AWAY. I CALLED BACK AND ASKED IF IT WAS SAFE TO DRIVE AND HE SAID NO I COULD BRING IN AND THEY WOULD GET TO WHEN EVER THEY GET A CHANCE, THEY HAD IT FOR 5 DAYS AND SAID THEY COULDN'T FIND ANYTHING WRONG. I WENT TO PICK IT UP STARTED THE VAN TO LEAVE AND THE ESC LIGHT WAS ON. I WENT BACK IN AND ASKED WHY? THEY TOOK FOR A RIDE THEN PUT ON MACHINE SAID THEY NEEDED TO ORDER THE SENSOR TO REPLACE THE SAME ONE THEY REPLACE IN FEB. TOLD ME IT WAS SAFE TO DRIVE HOME AND BRING BACK THUR SEPT 22. 2011, SO DRIVE HOME GET 2 BLOCKS FROM HOME AND THE BRAKES LOCKED UP THE TIRES SQUEAL AND I SLID OFF THE SIDE OF THE ROAD LUCKILY I DIDN'T HIT ANYTHING. SCARED ME DEATH. HAD VAN TOWED BACK TO DEALER AND ITS STILL THERE NOW. I CALLED KIA MAIN OFFICE TO DISCUSS PROBLEM AND HOW IM VERY WORRIED ABOUT THE SAFETY OF MY VAN. HE SAID HE'D CALL BACK YESTERDAY BUT HAVEN'T HEARD FROM HIM YET. I TRIED TO CALL HIM 2 TIMES TODAY AND NO ANSWER. THEN THE DEALER CALLED SAID THEY DID SOME REPROGRAMMING BUT STILL LOOKING FOR THE PROBLEM THEY ARE DRIVING IT TO SEE IF IT DOES IT FOR THEM IF NOT THEY WILL JUST GIVE IT BACK TO ME. THAT MAKES ME FEEL REALLY SAFE I DON'T WANT TO DRIVE IT UNTIL I KNOW ITS FIXED AND SAFE. THEY ACTED LIKE THEY HAVE NEVER HEARD OF THIS PROBLEM BEFORE. *TR
