Consumer Description
MY KIA RIO WILL STALL AT SLOW SPEEDS. SEVERAL TIMES WHILE I WAS STOPPED OR BACKING UP AND THE CAR STALLS. WHEN I WAS DRIVING IN A PARKING LOT MY CAR STALLED WHILE I WAS ACCELERATING. I TOOK MY KIA TO A MECHANIC. HE SAID THE PROBLEM WAS THE REAR FUEL FILTER. HE REPLACED MY FUEL FILTER. THIS DID NOT RESOLVE THE PROBLEM. HE CALLED KIA THEY RECOMMENDED HE REPROGRAM THE CAR. THIS DID NOT WORK. HE CLEANED THE FUEL FILTER PUT IT BACK IN THE CAR. THIS DID NOT SOLVE THE PROBLEM. HIS ONLY RECOMMENDATION. IS TO TAKE THE CAR TO KIA. BUT IF THEY DON'T KNOW WHAT THE PROBLEM IS. HOW CAN THEY FIX IT. RIGHT KNOW I CAN ONLY HOPE THE DOESN'T STALL AND CAUSE AN ACCIDENT.
