NHTSA Complaint #11020873 — 2015 KIA SORENTO

VEHICLE ENGINE STOPPED ON FREEWAY, CAUSING ME TO HAVE TO LOSE POWER BRAKE AND POWER STEERING ABILITY, WAS BARELY ABLE TO GET VEHICLE OFF FREEWAY AND STOP WITHOUT CAUSING MAJOR ACCIDENT TO SEVERAL OTHER VEHICLES. ENGINE EXHIBITS SAME SYMPTOMS ARE PREVIOUS MODEL YEAR RECALL FROM KIA AND HYUNDIA BUT DEALER FAILS TO ACKNOWLEDGE ISSUE IN SAME EXACT ENGINE, BUT ONE YEAR LATER MODEL. THERE IS A RECALL UNDER SC147 FOR 2012-2014 KIA SORENTO AND LIKE TYPE VEHICLES, HOWEVER MINE IS A 2015, AND AS MENTIONED HAS THE SAME EXACT SYMPTOMS AS PREVIOUS YEAR ENGINES. REQUESTING SC147 TO BE EXTENDED INTO MODEL YEAR 2015 AND 2016 VEHICLES TO HAVE CARS SERVICED BEFORE THIS CAUSES INJURY OR DEATH IN OTHER MOTORISTS.
