 Description of the problemI sent this to [xxx]<[xxx]> i have some records from (lev kia) i am going to share with you as soon as i get them together, in the meantime i am going to drive this 2019 kia sorento and hope on the highway it does not decide to down shift at 60 or 70 mph like it was doing, especially if a large tractor trailer is behind me. I think it would be a mess when they find out that a (serious electric problem that the manager [xxx] at lev kia told me that the vehicle has) caused the transmission to down shift, i will send those papers soon. Also if there was nothing wrong with the transmission, why did they replace the first one. They told me because of a moisture problem was the cause of the internal shifting modulator valve to act up, after the transmission was replaced i had the same problem i called and was told to bring it back and leave it they had to do a program update for the transmission to correct the modulator valve. How do you correct a moisture problem in an internal modulator valve with an update? We will see what your answer to this is, there were other problems with the #1 e-brake light coming on by itself #2 the right front head lamp lower lamp going out 2 times, they had it in the shop for three days and went through the wire harness cleaned all the connectors to the lamp. I told warren rios that a lot of this happened after a heavy rain storm that something was getting wet and causing either a short or a surge or a bad ground connection, i have pictures of the e-brake light being on and the headlamp lower light out only on the right side.
