Description of the problem	We leased a 2013 kia sorrento on 8/11/2012. Vehicle had 4 miles when paperwork was done. On 8/25/2012 the check engine light came on. On 8/26/2012 the engine revved to 6,500 rpm when we were going 20 mph. There was a large bang. I took in to the dealer on 8/27/2012. I was told a new transmission needed to be installed after 2 days of "diagnostics". We now have been without the vehicle for almost as long as we have had the vehicle. I am told it will not be ready until at least this wednesday. I frankly feel uncomfortable in taking the vehicle back in this condition. I have been told several times that i would be receiving a call from the national customer service desk at kia. No call has ever come. We have received no calls from kia's consumer affairs group though told repeatedly that such would occur.
