Product type code	VEHICLE
Description of the problem	Ivt transmission failure. Car has about 27k miles, purchased at 22k used. After driving off the highway from 70mph to a near stop at the feeder road stop sign, the car would barely move, seems like the gear ratio did not adjust back down. Then noticed severe jerks when transmission tries to change the gear rations, and rpm would shoot up erratically. Took it to the nearest kia dealer, had to wait about 10 days for an appointment. They confirmed a transmission failure and replaced transmission in about 5 days.. Not sure how long this will last. Definitely a scary and safety issue and needs a closer look at the design
