NHTSA Complaint #11559502 — 2022 KIA EV6

Driving South on Route 15 in Gettysburg Area on 11-22-2023 I got a warning message on my dash which read “check electric vehicle system”. The warning disappeared off the dash and we continued to drive a bit further. The warning light illuminated once again and I started to look for a pull off area. Not long after the warning appeared the second time a bigger warning came on the dash and directed me to pull over and stop. We fortunately were able to get into the right lane and pull off the road. We were headed to Northern VA and would have been on a number of multi-lane roads where if a dead vehicle is stranded in high traffic area with speeds exceeding 60 to 80 miles per hour could have resulted in a catastrophe with a car that just goes dead. Remember there is no warning except for the dash warning and a few seconds until the car died. This problem is well know and documented all over the Internet and KIA has done nothing about it. 11-22-2023 At 10:33 AM we called the KIA hot line and explained what had happened to the KIA representative. He secured a tow truck. At dealer on 12-27-22 for charging problem. At dealer on 8-10-23 to have ICCU check 11-22-2023 At 12:38 PM we received a call from the tow truck driver and ask where we were located. We got to the dealer but they couldn’t get the car off of the roll back tow truck because it had lost all power to the car and wouldn't unlock doors, release the parking brake etc. I suggested to the service advisor that the battery needed a jump or battery pack to energize the car enough to get it off the truck. That did work and pulled the car to the rear parking area. I told the service advisor about all of the complaints on the Internet about EV6’s stopping dead in the middle of the road causing some very dangerous conditions. He said the dealership had not heard anything about it. I have no loaner car and car has been sitting for 20 days waiting on parts that were probably not upgraded from the original part.
