Description of the problem	Takata recall, 2014 kia sorento lists power when i accellerate. Sorento is very sluggish when driving down the highway it seems to jerk and lose power. This sluggish feeling happens almost daily, even if i have a tune up completed and all new filters. I have also tried different brands of gasoline to try and help with this issue. Nothing seems to help. I am very concerned also about the mount of heat the engine gives off. The heat coming from the engine is so hot you can barely stand by the car.
