 Description of the problemI was driving my 2014 kia sorento down a city street when my car completely shut off . Luckily i was only going about 30 mph. It lost all power and wont restart. It showed and currently shows a red steering wheel light (i've never seen before) and a dim battery display( which battery isn't even 4 months old and all features worked long as car was in aux mode) and also check engine light is on. It was putting off a bad odor afterwards, didn't smell of oil or any other fluids sorento doesn't have any blown fuses nor did it have any service type lights on at time it shut off. It seemed to be driving fine until it shut off. No loud noise or shaking or anything have to take to dealer tomorrow had it checked for codes and isn't showing any having it towed to the dealership is my only choice
