When accelerating from a complete stop, the engine shudders & hesitates. Have to be careful when pulling out into an intersection and make sure there is plenty of space re: oncoming traffic. Brought car to dealership, called Kia corporate office, and they say that vehicle is operating as it is designed to operate. I'm very disappointed.
