Dt: first got car seemed to drive good, but in the winter the 4-wheel drive didn't work. Kia fixed it, and this happened again, kia fixed it again. This seemed to happen when in high speeds and then slowing, the wheels would shake. At the first attempt to fix it, kia dealer said they changed the kit that puts it into 4-wheel drive. On the second attempt to fix it, they didn't know what they did, but it had to do with 4-wheel drive. At third attempt kia said the hoses were clogged.
