| Description of the problem | I was traveling on a hey, making a left turn onto a major hey, when my car would not excellerate. I was able to turn off the hey but my car would not go over four miles per hour. I had it towed to my machanic, he said the prongs broke off the thing that plugs into the computer, due to corrosion. So i had it towed to kia. They say i need a new computer & it will cost, $5000. 00. This should be a recall. Why can |
