A D V E R T I S E M E N T S
The first time the problem occurred was about 6 months after I purchased the vehicle. Driving home one late evening the car started to lose power. I was in a rural area so I continue to drive to get to a light area. All dashboard lights started to flash but car still was able to move slowly. I was able to finally reach a lighted area that I could pull over. once pulled over vehicle shut down completely. Unable to use flasher or anything, it was completely dead. I was afraid because cars weren't able to see me and I was barely off the road. called tow truck and towed to Kia Dealer. Dealer said that it was the 9 Volt battery. I had to pay for the battery and it was replaced. Unfortunately this did not fix the problem.
