NHTSA Complaint #11518378 — 2022 KIA EV6

While operating and driving on a busy two lane roadway, about an hour in to a two hour trip, the vehicle displayed “check electrical system” message without warning, then quickly lost power, rendering the car only able to drive at 25 mph for a brief moment, and then, just as quickly, shut down completely and did not operate. I was able to navigate the vehicle from the busy roadway to the roadside, but I barely made it. Under different conditions, such as travel on an interstate at high speeds, this would have proved very dangerous to have a car stop completely dead like this. The car was unable to be started by Emergency Roadside Assistance and had to be towed to the dealer. After a few days the dealer informed me that parts needed for repair would be approximately 7 weeks to be received from the manufacturer.
