Description of the problem	Lack of acceleration from a stop. When starting from a stop, the vehicle will very slowly move forward with the rpm stalling at approximately 1500 rpm and further depressing of the gas pedal fails to allow it to accelerate further. Wife had issue with trying to get on the freeway when this occurred, it was a safety issue, she was trying accelerate on the on ramp, almost hit from behind. She managed to get to the shoulder and get to the side road. After getting to destination and stopping for awhile, the car started and operated normally to get home. Back to kia, after test drive they were able to duplicate once. There were no warning lights or failure codes. They kept car for six weeks trying to see issue again. We now have a flight recorder installed for a week recording any issues. If we see issue, we have to activate recorder by pushing a button, taking attention off of road. Wife will not drive car unless just around the block.
