What owners wrote
I pressed on my brakes to avoid hitting the car in front of me. The car veered left and started to swerve. It started spinning out of control.
Tl* the contact owns a 2014 kia sorento. When the contact attempted to accelerate, the vehicle jolted three times before accelerating. The failure recurred three times without warning. The vehicle was taken to a local dealer who inspected the vehicle and found no failures. The failure recurred on a different day. On another occasion, while driving approximately 15 MPH, the vehicle lost steering and braking ability. As a result, the vehicle drove into a ditch.
