I picked up my car from the kia service department in downtown los angeles after being there for an engine replacement 4 months. I was driving it home and it started smelling funny in the fwy. I pulled over and everything seemed fine I drove 10 miles more then all this smoke started coming out and the car stalled in the middle of the fwy. It didn't turn on anymore and it started jerking off . I added water and it just leaked through the bottom. I had to push it out of the fwy and call a tow truck again.
