NHTSA Complaint #11191735 — 2015 KIA SOUL

STARTING THE ENGINE THE IDLE SPEEDS UP FAST, A FEW SECONDS LATER IT SLOWS TO NORMAL. WHEN DRIVING TODAY, THERE WAS NO ACCELERATION WHEN ATTEMPTING TO. VEHICLE WAS DIFFICULT FOR FUEL TO ALLOW ACCELERATION. I USED MY CAR ALL DAY TODAY. THIS EVENING THE VEHICLE WON'T START WITH THE STEERING WARNING LIGHT TURNING ON. ALMOST LIKE THE BATTERY WAS DEAD. THE VEHICLE FINALLY STARTED WITH ACCELERATION HIGH, THE THE ENGINE LIGHT TURNED ON AND STAYED ON. I DECIDED NOT TO USE THE VEHICLE AND WILL CONTACT THE DEALERSHIP. PURCHASED THE VEHICLE FROM A DEALERSHIP IN NOVEMBER 2018. THESE PROBLEMS ARE NEW AND HAVE NEVER OCCURRED BEFORE. THESE ISSUES OCCURRED WHILE DRIVING TODAY FOR THE ACCELERATION PROBLEM AND THE REMAINING NON-STARTING/LIGHTS WHILE STATIONARY IN MY PARKING LOT THIS EVENING.
