Description of the problem	My car has 73,000 miles and kept well maintained. One day the car wouldn't start. Engine kept turning over and over. I was eventually able to get the car started but it would shake, vibrate, and hesitate while driving. My mechanic said the problem is high pressure fuel pump and it is not cover after 60,000 miles warranty and the part will cost over $850 without the labor. I never had an issue with fuel pump or fuel pump system with a car that has under 100,000 miles on it. This is defect design from kia and they will not cover for it.
