NHTSA Complaint #11253348 — 2013 KIA OPTIMA

WHILE DRIVING ON THE INTERSTATE THE CAR BEGAN TO LOSE POWER EVEN THOUGH I HAD MY FOOT ON THE GAS PEDAL. ONCE HOME, AFTER TURNING THE CAR OFF I NOTICED THAT THE BRAKE LIGHTS WERE STILL ON. DRIVING THE NEXT MORNING WE PAID ATTENTION TO THE BRAKE LIGHT IN THE REAR WINDOW AND EVERY TIME THE CAR WOULD START TO SLOW DOWN OR SEEM TO LOSE POWER THE BRAKE LIGHT WAS ON. IT IS ALMOST AS IF THE BRAKES ARE ENGAGING ON THEIR OWN. YOU COULD SEE THE LIGHT FLICKERING BUT IF YOU HOLD YOUR FOOT UNDER THE PEDAL TO KEEP IT FROM MOVING THERE WAS NO ISSUE.
