general problems of the 2010 Kia Motor Forte

There is an ongoing issue with the map sensor that triggers a check engine light as well as the rpms to fluctuate. This can happen when disconnecting the battery and/or replacing the map sensor. I replaced the map sensor and still get this ongoing issue. This is a safety concern because due to the rpms constantly fluctuating, the car jolts forward when driving which could possibly result to the car hitting another vehicle in front of it. But the only way to get it to stop / get the check engine light to turn off, is to drive it for x amount of miles until it fixes itself. This problem has been inspected by kia themselves and they did not give any information to me about the issue. This issue seems to happen any time I get the vehicle serviced.

Randomly the car refused to accelerate, rpms would not go past 3k. It happened it different time points of a drive. There was never any check engine light. Mechanic drove the vehicle and ran a check on it and said with out a warning light there isn’t much I can do. Suggested replace crank shaft sensor. There was no change to the point the entire car died while driving up hill with no shoulder and a very large truck behind. My children would be dead right now if there had been another vehicle in the lane next to me I was able to barely to get the cat into. The car started back up after 30 mins. Was looked at again, informed it could have something to do with the engine tick, still no warning lights. The car stalls, jerks like a misfire and had refused to keep a stable speed while on the interstate.

Hi, I have a standing issue with my 2010 kia Forte sx 2. 4l the engine developed this knock that has totally incapacitated the car so it cannot be driven. Every mechanic ive been to says that the engine is done and needs to be replaced. Ive checked for recalls and I found hundreds of consumers with the same exact problem where these 2. 4l engines developed a crippling knock. Has this establishment recieved any complaints and if so what is being done to relieve the consumer who has no where to turn and is stuck with a car they cant use and is being ignored by kia coorporation and every one else. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated, thank you.

Throttle body original and replacement part defective. Intermittent no start. Vehicle stationary. Will just crank and not start after sitting for awhile. Once it starts usually good until vehicle sits for awhile then it's difficult to start again. . Original item replaced Mar 24 2016. Same problem occurring now in Feb 17 with new part. Was told that throttle body has been a recurring problem with other customers by the service technician at carsmart automotive repair in logan utah.

The contact owns a 2010 kia Forte. The contact stated that while refueling, fuel would spew back out of the filler neck without warning. The contact also mentioned that there was an internal electrical malfunction which caused a loss of power from the battery. The vehicle was taken to the dealer, who replaced the canister purge valve and the battery. However, the failure recurred. The vehicle was taken back to the dealer for further inspection and diagnosis. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 60,000.
