This is the 2nd time around that the same problem happened. The car was parked outside at - 24°C overnight then when i tried to start it, the car won't start and has the same "check hybrid engine system" error. Got towed again. Stayed in Kia dealership for about a week. The shop foreman was able to duplicate the problem and got an error code pertaining to the hybrid power relay assembly. So they did change the whole assembly tested the car for about 3 days and was OK that time so i picked it up. Got it running OK for a week but then it happened again

This is the first of 3 occasions this problem/error occurred. It has happened 13 days after we picked up the car. It was -16 that time when the "check hybrid engine system" error popped up. Got it towed to the dealer and the fix they did was reset the car. But it was not the end of it.
