Description of the problem	About 1 month ago my fuel pump went out. I have a 2013 kia optima. I was at 62,000 miles when it went out, which meant it was not covered under warranty. I had it replaced at the local dealership, it cost around $800. 00 to replace. Now less that 2 months later i am having some hesitation and jerking in the car. Had the car troubleshoot and it's not the temp sensor. The car is too new for things like this to happened. Once i get rid of it, i will never buy another kia, or will i allow my family and friend to.
