Description of the problem	At zero or near zero mph sometimes the car will not accelerate as it normally does. This causes me concern that i will misjudge how much time i have when pulling out in front of on-coming traffic. This began happening soon after purchasing the car in feb. 2014. It has continued thru today, jan 26th, 2015. I asked the dealer about it and they said it may be due to my driving in "eco" mode. They said i should only use "eco" mode on the freeway. I began using the "regular mode" right away , around town. I used "eco" mode when driving from phoenix, az to san diego, calif. This weekend. It doesn't matter which mode i am in or what road, i'm on ; it still does it occasionally. I cannot tell when it will happen. It can happen at a stop light or sign, or when entering a highway. I feel that it is a very "unsafe" condition and that kia should be made to create a fix. I traded in a 2010 soul for this car and am thinking i was a lot safer with the old one!!
