Earlier recall defective!!! 2005 kia Sorento v6, had a recall of breakage of crankshaft accessory pulley bolt. New bolt from the recall has also failed.

Had bolt tightened at local shop and it failed again in 3 days!!! kia is failing to fix this problem in which will result in fatality accidents.
I have a 2005 kia Sorento that started to shut off while driving on Jan 3rd 2009. Since then it has happened 4 times. It is random and I am currently in court with kia through the PA lemon law. I wanted to file this complaint so it is on record.
While driving my 2005 kia Sorento it suddenly looses power and will not surpass 30 mph. When I change from automatic transmission to this new standard shift there is no response. This has occurred now 4 times the past 2 months. The dealer checked the codes and nothing shows. I must stop and shut the vehicle off, restart and all systems return to normal. My dealer says that I must bring this to them when it is in this state. This request is impossible to do.
