Description of the problem	I purchased a 2017 kia sedona from a kia dealer in queens, ny, in 2017 with 50 miles. I had an engine malfunction at around 65,000 while driving on a highway with a relative and my children on new year's eve 12/31/20. When i initially started the car, i heard a rattling sound, which i thought was due to the cold weather; however, as i drove off and drove further and approached the highway, the car started to decelerate. After the car decelerated, the car cut off while i was driving. In a panic, i started the car again and pulled over to the side. I had to repeat turning the car on, the car shutting off and decelerating, turning the car on, and driving ten miles to return home. The very next day, 1/1/2021 the car was towed to the dealership that handled my lease buyout. The service manager exhibited professionalism and offered exceptional services to ensure that i understood the repair process. He informed of charges that would be incurred if kia did not cover the warranty. Kia will not honor the warranty. The service manager indicated that receipts were required to document oil changes performed on the 2017 kia sedona. Service receipts from kia dealerships were provided; however, additional receipts were required. I contacted the kia corporate customer service, the customer services representative exhibited professionalism and advised me to get receipts of oil purchases for any oil changes done outside of a service shop. Due to limitations in retrieving receipts within a certain timeframe, i am unable to produce additional receipts. I am without my car for one and a half months, i am renting a car while paying my monthly finance bill, and kia will not honor my warranty because of a lack of receipts of oil changes, although the car was previously car serviced in november 2020 at a kia dealership.

What is Recall?
A recall is when a product is removed from the market or a correction is made to the product because it is either defective or potentially harmful.
What is Failure?
Failure is the state or condition of not meeting a desirable or intended objective, and may be viewed as the opposite of success. Product failure ranges from failure to sell the product to fracture of the product, in the worst cases leading to personal injury, the province of forensic engineering.
