general problems of the 2004 Kia Motor Optima

My car completely turns off while im driving it, most of the time when I used it the first time of the day and try to used it again it turns of and loose power, I can't turn it on again in that moment I need to wait and then it works again but if happens really frecuently and its really dangeros because im on the freeway and cars are behind me and I can cause an accident or anything worse. I went to the dealership so they could inspect my car but they couldn't find anything at that moment.

The car was running fine until after a few hours of driving it just stopped running. This is the second time this has occurred. The engine rpm dropped to zero and the car coasted. After sitting for less than an hour the car started up again. I took it to the kia dealer and they said, even though the car had less than 60,000 miles, they would have to diagnose the problem and charge us $200 to do so, and the electronic parts were not covered.

The contact owns a 2004 kia Optima. The contact was driving 35 mph when the vehicle lost power. The contact was able to drive the vehicle to the dealer for diagnostic testing after receiving a jump start to the battery. The dealer confirmed that the crank shaft sensor needed to be replaced. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The vehicle was repaired. The failure and current mileages was 80,034.

I was on my way to work and my car just stopped running while I was driving on the highway. I got it towed, it is the crankshaft position sensor, the cost to repair $460. I have done some research on the internet and many people have had this problem with this year. Also earlier models have been recalled.

I purchased a brand new 2004 kia Optima and paid in full. I purchased for the 10 yr warranty and extended warranty I bought. The a/c has always overheated , car seats in the locked positionmoving while driving out of their position, locks malfunctioning when no one is touching them, transmission jumping.
