Description of the problem | While driving my 2005 kia sorento it suddenly looses power and will not surpass 30 mph. When i change from automatic transmission to this new standard shift there is no response. This has occurred now 4 times the past 2 months. The dealer checked the codes and nothing shows. I must stop and shut the vehicle off, restart and all systems return to normal. My dealer says that i must bring this to them when it is in this state. This request is impossible to do.*jb |
