2014 KIA SORENTO Power Train Problems, Complaints and Defects

Issue ID	1101952
Internal NHTSA #	10627393
Manufacurer	Kia Motors America
Brand	KIA
Model	SORENTO
Model Year	2014
File date	14/02/08
Component	POWER TRAIN
Product type code	VEHICLE
Description of the problem	There has been a very hard jerk forward after a stop (or stop and turn i. E. At stop sign) when i start to accelerate gently. This jerk has always happened after a stop within 75 - 150 feet. The speed of the vehicle has always been around 10- 15 mph. Jerk forward seems to be a slam forward of drive shaft after just starting to accelerate. This has occurred about three times a month and usually after car has run about five minutes. I am not a mechanic but this seems to be power train issue with drive shaft, brakes and/ or transmission involved. I will research further with dealer as time permits - they have been made aware of this issue but did not say for sure what was happening as of yet (want longer evaluation to drive vehicle themselves).
