Consumer Description

MY VEHICLE SUDDENLY STOPPED TO REACT TO THE GAS PEDAL, MOTOR RPM FELL DOWN TO ~1000 RPM - USUALLY ITS IDLE VALUE. THE PROBLEM HAPPENED AS I WAS TRYING TO SPEED UP WHILE ENTERING THE TRAFFIC ON A HIGHWAY, AND IT CREATED A DANGEROUS SITUATION. IT LOOKS LIKE A COMMON PROBLEM WITH KIA SEDONA VEHICLES, I WAS ABLE TO FIND QUITE A FEW REFERENCES ON THE INTERNET, FOR EXAMPLE SEE THIS: HTTP://WWW.KIA-FORUMS.COM/KIA-CARNIVAL-SEDONA-2006/61112-SUDDEN-LOSS-ACCELERATOR-RESPONSE.HTML. *TR
