I PURCHASED THIS CAR USED,IT STALLED ON ME IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD. I HAVE BASICALLY HAD THE ENTIRE MOTOR REPLACED.I WENT TO TEST DRIVE AND IT DONE THE SAME THING. IT STALLED IN THE MIDDLE OF TRAFFIC. I SEARCHED FOR RECALLS AND CAME UP WITH ONE IN THE C123 AND C124 WIRE HARNESS. I BELIEVE THIS WAS THE PROBLEM FROM THE VERY BEGINNING. *TR

I OWN A 1998 KIA SPORTAGE 4WD. I HAVE ACCESS TO ALLDATA.COM. I HAVE RECENTLY PERFORMED SOME ENGINE WORK TO MY VEHICLE AND CAME ACROSS A RECALL THAT CAUSED ME SOME CONCERN. NUMBER: KT2006050901 IS LISTED AS A POSSIBLE CONCERN FOR "CERTAIN 1996 - 2002 SPORTAGE MODELS."I WOULD LIKE TO KNOW WHAT MAKES A PARTICULAR VEHICLE ONE THAT IS MARKED "FOR CONCERN." THE RECALL STATES THE EXACT ISSUE THAT I AM FACING WITH MY VEHICLE. THIS CONDITION IS BEING EXHIBITED AT THIS TIME. THE LOCAL KIA DEALERSHIP HAS INFORMED ME THAT MY VEHICLE IS NOT ONE THAT I STO BE SERVICED UNDER THIS RECALL EVEN THOUGH IT IS EXHIBITING WHAT THE RECALL INFORMATION OUTLINES. WHY, WOULD YOU PLEASE, IS MY VEHICLE NOT ONE THAT SHOULD BE A CANDIDATE FOR THIS SAFETY RECALL? I HAVE A LEAK FROM THE TOP OF THE TANK. A DEALERSHIP IN NASHVILLE SAYS THAT FROM ALL THAT THEY UNDERSTAND, MY VEHICLE SHOULD BE INSPECTED/REPAIRED FOR THIS RECALL CONCERN. *TR
