Description of the problem | The idle stop - start system seems to be broken. Whenever i pull up to a light and stop the engine shuts off. Then, when i try to accelerate the engine starts but the calibers lock up on the disc creating a loud groaning sound. It causes the car to shutter and barely go forward. Additionally, the car consistently pulls to the right. It causes the vehicle to begin to veer off the road. On two occasions the dealer, kia of irvine, told me they did not have the equipment fo fix this problem. |
