NHTSA Complaint #11615997 — 2022 KIA SORENTO

WHILE PARKED ON A RESIDENTIAL STREET. I STARTED CAR AND PUT IT IN REVERSE. CAR WOULD NOT REVERSE WHEN I APPLIED GAS. I SHIFTED TO DRIVE. CAR WOULD NOT GO FORWARD WHEN I APPLIED GAS. REPEATED ATTEMPT TO REVERSE. NO MOVEMENT. SHIFTED INTO DRIVE AND AFTER APPLYING MORE PEDAL , ALMOST TO FLOOR, CAR LURCHED FORWARD. IN JUST ABOUT 30 MINUTES LATER CAR AGAIN WOULD NOT MOVE WHEN REVERSING. IT DID GO FORWARD IN DRIVE THE SECOND TIME. THE KIA DEALERSHIP HAS BEEN DEALING WITH A COMPLAINT REGARDING THE CAR GOING INTO LIMP MODE WHILE MERGING IN TRAFFIC ...AN ON GOING PROBLEM SINCE THE CAR WAS AT 25,000 MILES. THEY HAVE "RESET" THE TRANSMISSION ACCORDING TO A RECALL NOTICE BUT SAY THEY CAN NOT REPLACE TRANSMISSION WITHOUT A "CODE" THAT VERIFIES IT IS THE TRANSMISSION. THIS IS A NEW ISSUE BUT ALSO UNABLE TO PULL ANY CODES. THERE IS A DEFINITE SAFETY CONCERN WITH DRIVING THIS CAR. WHAT CAN I DO.
