1 Electrical System problem

Failure Date: 11/01/2016

When driving, the car stalls for no reason (there is fuel in the car, has regular oil changes, and a brand new battery). It takes a couple minutes before the car will restart. While on the highway, the engine light will come on and then turn right off, but the rpm gauge stops working even though I am still driving. There is a jerking motion when that happens. This happens on city streets and on the highway. It is becoming unsafe and the dealership cannot replicate the situation. All they do is run the code but nothing comes up. This has been happening since the beginning of November 2016 and has happened every day since then. This is a safety issue because the car could stall anytime while driving and I could be seriously hurt and other drivers could get hurt.

2 Electrical System problem

Failure Date: 12/15/2014

Took my car to get fixed, and looked at the 2nd cly. Apparently, tons of people are having problems with the 2nd cly after looking online about it. I had them try all my coils and its not a coil problem. I had all spark plugs changed and tune up was done. There is absolutely no reason my 2nd cly to be messed up. . . ? kia I'm so disappointed in my car, why are so many problems coming up? my car is not even 5 years old!!! I expect to get answers on this and it be taken care of, I will not be paying for something when I've done my part in maintain g my car.
