Description of the problem | My car light came on indicating i need oil in my 2015 kia forte. After putting on in my car it began to stall. I was in the process of driving it home and the car comes to a screeching stop on breckenridge ln, in louisville ky. I started the car back up and began to drive some more the car did it again. I was very lucky that no one ran into the back of me as the car stopped all of the sudden as if someone had pushed on the brakes. As i started the car again and began to drive a few yards down the road the car cut off and i was lucky that i drifted into a abandoned gas station only to have the car no start back up. |
