Last week my air bag indicator light started coming on. my car has not been involved in any crash for a crash repair to be a factor. i was driving when the light first came on. the light does go off when it wants to. i have tried resetting the car by disconnecting the battery for a few minutes, this did not help. i am very scared that the air bags could deploy at any given moment. today my traction control light illuminated and would only go off if i restarted the car but less than a mile the light came back on. and because this light was on my cruise control would not set.
Vehicle attempts to accelerate when stopping or stopped & foot on brake pedal. turning the a/c on slightly made intensified the acceleration.
Tl* the contact owns a 2014 kia forte. while driving, the vehicle failed to accelerate and made a sputtering noise when the engine was started. there were no warning indicators illuminated. the vehicle was not taken to a dealer or an independent mechanic for diagnostic testing. the manufacturer was not notified of the failure. the approximate failure mileage was 170,000.
Air bag light is on. horn only work occasionally and cruise does not work.
I had report the issue to kia of tupelo, ms. my card has had two recent issues. the first one being that upon acceleration, white smoke has been noted twice. the car has stalled out twice upon take off on the highway/interstate. this concern me greatly! on my most recent oil change, it was discovered that i have at least two quarts of oil shortage, with no leaks noted.
Takata recall needs to recall the breaks on the 2014 kia forte. on novemeber 21st 2016 i totalled my kia due to failure of manafacurer breaks they didnt stop me and i rear ended a car which hot another that hit another. the speed control on the car is very hard to control i bearly push on fhe gas and it zoomed off t went from 0-30 really quick. durring the wreck i was going approximately 25-30 mph which when i hit the car due to the breaks failing my car bouced off of it and the airbags never deployed. the road was dry it was dark outside ot was 5:58 am and very clear outside. the roads were very dry not slick at alll my car jolted as the breaks tried to stop me but they never atopped me. it was on a back road heading to take my husband to work.
Tire pressure light constantly goes on and off, car continually gets stuck in park and while driving dash doesn't show gears. brought to deal provided pictures as proof and was told they could not duplicate problem. asked for paperwork and they said they would mail it never received paperwork.
