I purchased to car in Jan, 2015, did not get a tag, til June 2015. Went out to take car for a spent, notice when I pressed the gas pedal, The maz RPM was around 2000 - 2400. Went ahead took for a test drive, max speed around 30 - 40 miles per hour with gas pedal to the floor. Carried car to KIA Dealer in Tupelo, Ms. the service department advised need a new complete throttle body assembly, cost me around $400.00 plus dollars, I would not have minded, however with the new throttle assembly car still in limp mode. The dealer kept the car total of three weeks, still in limp mode. I would appreciate any and all assistance in finding a fix, Thank you in limp mode.
