| Description of the problem | Catalytic converters has gone bad over 350k kias have been recalled for the same reason. My group of engines is not included in the recall, thousands of people have the same problem. Why is nhtsa not doing anything? I have no oil leaks, constantly having to put oil into the vehicle. I lost power on a 75 mph freeway kia is being no help, a wider recall needs to be done on this vehicle this is a bigger problem for consumers than they are covering. |
