| Description of the problem | I have a 2014 kia forte since september 2013 acquired several days the unit is started having a vibration in the engine. These vibrations are felt throughout the car and when in low or stopped. I took him to the service center where you buy and service technicians always tell me that no faults everything is working well, the vibration that i describe is normal in these cars, this due to the technology of motor bracket. As of today i'm not happy and i understand that the drive is failing. I'm really disappointed with the explanation given me the service center. A new car zero miles per more technology should not have to have much vibration in the engine. Further details of the unit that are wrong are the strange sounds of the valves and the sound engine braking. |
