Car Will Not Start problems of the 2017 Kia Motor Sorento

On February 17, 2021 a vehicle pulled out in front of me on a highway causing me to slam the brakes so hard to avoid hitting the vehicle. After the vehicle proceeded across the road when I tried to continue forward my Sorento had very little power no matter how much I tried to give the vehicle gas. As I drove Sorento home it had very little power. I could barley get vehicle to go the 5 plus miles to my house traveling at least than 25 miles per hour. Possibly less than that and as I tried to drive up the hill to my house I barely got there. The vehicle did not have power to go up hill. Afterwards the vehicle would not start and stay on. . I had it towed to kia dealership where is has been for a week.

The contact owns a 2017 kia Sorento. The contact stated while attempting to start the vehicle, the vehicle would not start. The contact jump started the vehicle and took the vehicle to an independent mechanic who replace the battery however, the failure persisted. The contact had the vehicle towed to local dealer bill bryan kia (9039 us-441, leesburg, FL 34788) and was advised to not to leave the key in the vehicle to prevent future failures. The vehicle was returned however, the failure persisted. After five days, the contact had the vehicle towed back to the same dealer to be repaired however, the failure recurred. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was 39,744.
