Consumer Description

Car was in garage and tried to start it. Would not start, although the dash lit up briefly and it showed the main EV battery was at 49%. Message then appeared on dash stating that 12 volt battery was discharged. Car then went completely dead electrically. No electrical power of any kind. Had car towed to KIA dealership and they have so far not been able to fix it. It is under warranty. There is a Kia recall, SC302, which seems to fit the problem with my car, but my specific VIN number is not on the recall list. The dealership ran diagnostics and said 12volt battery passed their tests. I suspect maybe a ICCU problem and that my car should be on the recall list, but is not.
