| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: I was stopped in traffic at a light and upon the light turning green i pushed the accelerator and my tachometer needle went up to 4 and higher until i took my foot off the gas. upon pushing the gas pedal again it did the same thing (in the middle of traffic) and i had to shift into neutral while going about 35 mph and back into drive. my kia still didn't want to shift so i put it back into neutral again and pushed the gas pedal to rev the rpms and then put back into drive and it drove ok. this happened a few months after buying the car and the kia dealer said nothing was wrong with vehicle. it continues to happen unpredictably.*ak |
