Drive the car 2 1/2 miles and it will use 3/4 tank of gas. Brakes grab when roads are not wet they are dry as the desert. 01-28-2015 jt's kia, the place we bought it from, said, "they found nothing wrong with the car and they did not do any work to the car 01-28-2015 got the car back from jt's they did do something about the brakes and the gas because the brakes are tighter than they were before we took it to them and the gas hand doesn't move like it did.
