Consumer Description

CAR-KIA SORENTO (NO OPTION ON VEHICLE PAGE FOR SORENTO) I HAVE TAKEN THE KIA SORENTO NOW 4-5 TIMES FOR THE GAS TANK PROBLEM. THE CAR WILL NOT ALLOW ME TO PUMP GAS FREELY. IT KEEPS STOPPING EVERY 30 CENTS OR SO. QUIRK KIA HAS SERVICED 4 TIMES AND EACH TIME THEY HAVE REPLACED PARTS FROM FUEL FILLER NECK TO PUMPS TO HOSES TO A PRESSURE SENSOR, ETC. I WAS TOLD ON 7/30/05 THAT THE MECHANIC (ON 3RD VISIT) THAT PREVIOUSLY TRIED FIXING MY CAR BROKE A FEW THINGS IN THE GAS TANK AND THERE WAS A FAULTY PART GASKET. THEY SAID THEY REPLACED THE PARTS. THEY DID NOT GIVE ME A RECEIPT. NOW THE PROBLEM CONTINUES AND I FEEL UNSAFE WHEN IT HAS TO DO WITH GASOLINE NOT PROPERLY ENTERING MY VEHICLE. WHY CAN'T THEY FIX IT? MY CHECK ENGINE LIGHT HAS BEEN ON 2 TIMES BECAUSE OF THE PROBLEM GETTING WORSE! *JB
