What owners wrote
Vehicle has been suffering from constant power loss with ESC light illuminated. Now it suddenly accelerates with the light lightest touch on pedal, lurching as it accelerates. It happens especially often when engine is under stress, such as climbing up a hill. I was parking in garage when is rapidly accelerated and my side bumper in front grazed garage door sidewall. It has also happened in reverse with rear side bumper nicking same spot on garage. This vehicle is a safety nightmare.
Problems with stalling and rough shifting. This van has been in the shop 10 or more time for the same problem. It has been serviced at capital kia in austin, texas all 10 times. The transmission has been replaced 2 times, the main computer has been replaced. Air sensor replaced. The list goes on and on. My service advisor is gene. While he has been helpful he is limited on what he can do.
