Recreational Vehicle Lpg Tank Valve/gauge Problems of Kia Motor Optima

Diving at 40 mph. Come to a stop at red light and engine begins making a slight noise. No warning gauges or warning light go off. Start driving to drive again and 2 blocks later a very loud mechanical bang and the engine shut down. Would not restart. Oil light went out using the starter while trying to restart. Never got the engine restarted. Car is now at kia of lansdale after I had to pay for towing. I perform courier services to us treasury dept and us attorney in philadelphia area. I need this car back desperately. Last oil change was 2000 miles ago with full synthetic oil. Always have used full synthetic. When I got the car pulled over and got out the smell of oil burning was clearly evident to myself and another gentleman who stopped to see if I needed any help. I believe this is an absolute recall related issue.

Takata recall: driving the car down a city street when it suddenly ceased to accelerate. The power steering stopped as it coasted into a side street to get off the busy road. I could smell wires burning as a electrical fire. I immediately got myself and family out of the car afraid it was on fire. The inside of the car filled with electrical smell and smoke. I called the 360 kia to have the car towed to the dealership since I bought a "gold" warranty when I purchased the vehicle they literally lost my car for six days and then called me wanting my service records stating the car had no oil in the motor. This is a outlandish lie! my car had plenty of oil in it . . . I never saw a engine light come on indicating that I had motor problems nor did I smell oil . This was a "sudden " malfunction. My car never ran hot nor did my gauges ever indicate a problem. I had the car for right at 40k miles and had a oil change due again at the end of April.

I have a 2012 kia Optima hybrid of which I purchased at the local kia dealer (ontario, CA) and even purchased an additional "platinum 100k mile protection. " on December 31st my car started to move while in park and the ignition on. I hit the breaks and there was no break pressure at all. The car started to flash codes regarding the brakes and I had to engage the emergency break to stop the vehicle. The dealer could not find the issue and returned the car. Another month later the car did the same thing and I video taped it. The gauges started illuminating and delluminating repeatedly and all the lights on the dash started to flash. The "check brake" code came up again! I now have proof of the vehicle doing this and brought my car back to the dealer now they have admitted something is wrong but they're still unable to duplicate the error. They are keeping the car for further diagnosis but have not done anything but tell me they do not know what is wrong with it yet and that my warranty "may not" cover it. They have told me repeatedly that they will not be able to fix it or do anything for me until they know what is wrong, nor have they offered me a rental car. I want my car back but it is unsafe! what if the brakes go out at a high rate of speed?! please hep me NHTSA so we can save lives of others that may experience this problem as well.
