| Description of the problem | My vehicle suddenly stopped to react to the gas pedal, motor rpm fell down to ~1000 rpm - usually its idle value. The problem happened as i was trying to speed up while entering the traffic on a highway, and it created a dangerous situation. It looks like a common problem with kia sedona vehicles, i was able to find quite a few references on the internet, for example see this: http://www. Kia-forums.
