Gasoline Fuel System problem #1

Going uphill toward traffic light, accelerating to maintain speed for crossing intersection, check engine light on, esc light on, engine suddenly idling causing total loss of power near the intersection. Had enough momentum to pull on the grass shoulder. Diagnostic from garage: throttle sensor stuck. Extremely dangerous situation.

Gasoline Fuel System problem #2

In 18 months my 2008 kia Sedona has continuous electrical problems, with this complaint focusing on the fact my vehicle has blown the 200 amp main fuse 4 times in 18 months, including while driving the vehicle 2 of the 4 times, causing complete loss of power and a safety issue as both times it happen while highway driving, with the dealer not being to determine the cause of the problem each and every time. They replace the fuse, run tests, and give the car back, at which point anywhere from 10 days to 6 months the fuse blows again. Note this same vehicle was in and out of the dealer repair for a check engine light they were unable to turn off for more than 48 hours at a time (computer reset) for 9 months which I sued under lemon law for.

Gasoline Fuel System problem #3

Vehicle would lose power to a crawl, then if you let it sit for 10 minutes it would regain some power by flooring it to a max speed of 35-40 mph.
