2023 Kia EV6 - ELECTRICAL SYSTEM and POWER TRAIN Failure Complaint (#b0c315)

2023 Kia EV6

  • Date of Incident: Apr-21, 2024
  • Date complaint filed: Apr-21, 2024
  • Failed components: ELECTRICAL SYSTEM and POWER TRAIN

Vehicle lost its power while trying to park. It could not be locked either. This is the second time this has happened. The first time, dealership said they replaced the auxiliary battery. When it got towed the second time, the dealership said, we only recharged the aux battery during the last complaint! Now, the dealership does not have anyone who can look into this issue for one week. Added to that, they do not have any loaner cars either! The car has 10,523 miles on it now. Car had 8000 miles during the first incident. We feel this is dangerous, unacceptable quality and not to mention, unbecoming of a vehicle brand not to give us a loaner car and expect us to wait a minimum of 10 days to figure out the problem.
