1 Other Fuel System problem

Failure Date: 12/20/2012

Car will not start after adding fuel. After reviewing this issue online, I found that hundreds of other owners have the same problem. We have not found a fix to the problem. In order to start the vehicle, it is necessary to pump the gas numerous times then slam into gear while holding down the gas. This could easily cause harm to those around the vehicle. Please help us find a fix or better yet have kia recall the 2003 Optima. Thank you.
