Consumer Description

UNKNOWN. Second instance of car not working while driving; this time is was on a highway. Both times "Check Hybrid System" warning comes on. Previously the dealer had to replace entire battery (covered under warranty at the time). This apparently common and may have to do with some fuse. I believe the vehicle shows the battery as completely empty now. I also think my particular Kia Niro should be included in campaign 18V257000. My car is the correct year make and model and I believe something is leaking which could have also caused my battery to fail while driving.
