Every time i hot a bump the rear end goes all over the place. also at a speed of 40 to 50 mph the vehicle hesitate, for 10 to 15 seconds for no aparent reason. while i'm driving, especially going up a hill.
The vehicle is the s model, new for 2017, i have driven the car approximately 2,000 miles since leasing it in september 2016. the car has poor acceleration, especially going up hills and merging into traffic (moving, city). it hesitates at traffic signals (from a dead stop). the vehicle tends to sway side to side from time to time (moving, city), the vehicle is under warranty and has been looked at by two different kia dealers. a technician has rode along with me; felt my concerns, but cannot duplicate it. i was told in march 2017 that the computer had been "tweaked", but no further information.
