| Description of the problem | Yesterday i was approaching a yellow light. The light changed to red as i was coming to a complete stop. I was at a complete stop waiting for the light to change so i could make a left turn. Suddenly the truck shut off completely. I then put my foot on the brake and put the truck in park so i could try to restart it. The truck restarted with no problems. This is the second incidence of the truck shutting off completely. The first occurrence was in january or february of this year. I had entered a left turning lane and was at a complete stop waiting to turn left when the truck shut off completely. I again placed my foot on the brake and placed the truck in park. I was then able to restart the truck. I reported the first incident to nalley kia stonecrest in lithonia ga when i was at my service appointment. They said they could not find anything wrong with the truck. I have also reported this most recent incident to them so they look into it at my upcoming service appointment on october 14th 2017. |
