Consumer Description

FOR OVER A YEAR, I'VE HAD THE ENGINE LIGHT ILLUMINATE A DOZEN TIMES AND EVERYTIME I'VE HAD TO VISIT MY DEALERSHIP TO HAVE THE SYSTEM SCANNED AND ALWAYS REPORTS ERROR CODE: P050A. I'VE BEEN TOLD BY THE SHOP THAT KIA IS AWARE OF THE ISSUE AND NO FIX IS AVAILABLE AT THIS TIME. HAVING TO CONSTANTLY GO BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP SHOP FOR AN ERROR ON KIAS PART IS REDICULOUS AND HAS COST WAY TOO MUCH OF MY TIME AND ADDED MILEAGE. A YEAR OF THE SAME STORY, "AWAITING A FIX" AND NO UPDATES, TIMETABLE OR SIGN THAT KIA ACTUALLY CARES AND IS WORKING ON A RESOLUTION. NOT SURE WHAT THEIR ENGINEERS DO ALL DAY BUT THIS IS REDICULOUS.
