Description of the problem | When decelerating, the car jerks at exactly 35 mph whether im on the highway or in the city and this happens . I have been to the dealership 3 times for this issue and they have even drove my car themselves and felt the same thing that i was feeling and all they say is that without a check engine light threr is nothing they can do about it and i just have to "live" with it. This is ridiculous and kia needs to address this issue before it causes any accidents or worse death. I spent way too much money on this car for it to be having these issues. Brakes are supposed to be a safety feature not a safety hazard. |
