Description of the problem	Takata recall my 2014 kia sorento suv awd engine it ried to stalled in the middle of the highway on me as i was driving on the highway at 65 mph at the exit it stopped at the light. Even though i took my kia in the dealership to have a software updated (ksda) in the begining of this year 2019. I was all most in a car crash from this. Becasue cars on the highway were coming my way to get off i was so scared. I called kia dealership. I was told that my truck was not on the recall list. I knew it was becasue my truck had all the symptoms. I was told to drive it to the dealership even through i express my concern that it was something wrong with the engine i was still told to drive the truck in. The person on the phone did not even care i could have been in a really bad accident as cars were drving 65mph. So i asked my husband to take it in. He did. Kia said that they will look at it and let me know by the end of the day. Day 1 no one called day 2 i called kiaa tech said someone will call me mid afternoon. After day 2 no one called mid afternoon of day 2 so on day 3 i had to call to see what was going on then i was told kia would replace my engine with a brand new engine not a refurbuised engine. But i dont think that will fix the problem.. I saw these recalles months before this happened for other suv's like mine. I looked everyday on the website starting in jan 2019 with my vin # nothing i am concern becasue after reserach i noticed that even though kia fixes the problems of the engine it stalked again on other customers. I am so scared to get back in that truck. I also had an appiontment schedule to fix the door locks due to recall not unlocking or locking on the recall webiste before all this engine stuff. I mention this to the kia tech which he said do not worry we will fixed that too..

What is Recall?
A recall is when a product is removed from the market or a correction is made to the product because it is either defective or potentially harmful.
What is Failure?
Failure is the state or condition of not meeting a desirable or intended objective, and may be viewed as the opposite of success. Product failure ranges from failure to sell the product to fracture of the product, in the worst cases leading to personal injury, the province of forensic engineering.
What is Defect?
Non-conformance of a car component with the specified requirements, or non-fulfillment of user expectations, including the safety aspects.
