NHTSA Complaint #11096957 — 2012 KIA SORENTO

VEHICLE STALLS WHILE IN MOTION AND WHEN STOPPED. WHEN IT STALLS IN MOTION, THERE IS NO STEERING OR BRAKES. AWD KICKS IN FOR NO REASON AND WILL NOT GO OFF. I HAD THE VEHICLE CHECKED AND BOTH THE MAP SENSOR AND VCMA ACTUATOR WERE BOTH REPLACED AS RECOMMENDED BY THE DIAGNOSTIC COMPUTER. I DID HAVE A TUNE UP ON THE VEHICLE ONE DAY PRIOR SO I HAD HOPED THE SPARK PLUGS WERE THE PROBLEM. PROBLEM RESUMED ONE DAY AFTER BRINGING HOME FROM SHOP. I CALLED KIA AFTER SEEING THERE WAS A RECALL IN MAY OF 2017 THAT COVERED CERTAIN SORENTO MODELS THAT WERE STALLING, HOWEVER I WAS TOLD MINE WAS NOT A PART OF THIS RECALL. I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO NOW OTHER THAN TO TAKE IT TO KIA AND SPEND ENORMOUS AMOUNTS IN REPAIRS.
