Warning problem #1

The abs/traction warning lights came on. On April 29,2026, I took it to beck and masten group 1 kia intomball, texas and they diagnosed as hecu failure. The repair cost $2377. 16. Kia corporate denied reimbursement. Lights were resolved after hecu replacement. There was no accident/injury/fire. Mileage was 60400. I wanted to note and document as a potential safety trend.

Warning problem #2

When driving down a perfectly straight road, if you take your hands off the steering wheel for a split second, the car drifts to the left over the center line of the road. Taylor did a four-wheel alignment, however, the receipt said I told them it was pulling to the right, I specifically told them it was pulling to the left. I have an appointment with them on 6 September 2022 to try to correct their mistake. I am not sure an alignment will correct the problem. Second item: there was a recall of the airbags on this vehicle. This recall was cleared by rusty wallace GMC kia, 300 king avenue, morristown tennessee 37014 phone 423-586-1441. I am concerned about the drifting to the left when hands are lifted from the steering wheel on a straight road. This could cause an accident. What is the remedy for this problem? thank you mahlemama@yahoo. Com dorothea rice car was acquired on 11/11/ 21.
