After driving to work approximately a 25 minutes to work I parked my vehicle and smelt something like burnt plastic. Assumed it was something in the area I work. After my shift roughly 8 hours I headed home and suddenly the car would not go more than 5 miles an hour then completely dead. After the tow trucked lifted the vehicle I was able to see severe melting of the undercarriage plastic. It could have been so much worse. It was towed to local Kia dealership and have no idea to why yet this happened. This is an absolute danger to just happen to a well maintained vehicle randomly.

Since January my 2010 Kia Rio has stalled at traffic stops. It usually starts again after several tries, although recently it needed a jump start. I've taken it to three mechanics who all say they can't find a code or what the problem is. I've tried gas additive, new crank shaft sensor, tune up. Nothing works. I've called Kia customer service. There are no recalls but I still have a car I think is unsafe to drive. I've stalled in rush hour traffic on city streets and state roads several times. I have a case number with Kia, and plan to take it to Kia dealership in one more effort to find code or what's wrong. I don't have repair invoices handy but have spent more than $500.

When driving, the car stalls for no reason (there is fuel in the car, has regular oil changes, and a brand new battery). It takes a couple minutes before the car will restart. While on the highway, the engine light will come on and then turn right off, but the RPM gauge stops working even though I am still driving. There is a jerking motion when that happens. This happens on city streets and on the highway. It is becoming unsafe and the dealership cannot replicate the situation. All they do is run the code but nothing comes up. This has been happening since the beginning of November 2016 and has happened every day since then.this is a safety issue because the car could stall anytime while driving and I could be seriously hurt and other drivers could get hurt.
