It sounds like your mode door is not moving to the correct position to allow air flow through the panel vents. I would recommend having your mode door actuator tested to determine if it is functioning properly. The most likely...
Hi there. It sounds as if you are experiencing an obstruction in the fuel delivery system. A loss in compression after your vehicle has warmed up can also cause this issue. I'd strongly suggest having a mechanic, such as one...
First, I would check the inertia switch. This switch opens on perceived impact and prevents power from getting to the fuel pump. There should be continuity across the switch at all times. If the switch is good, I would check...
Usually, if the car will not go forward it mean the transmission is shot. This depends on if it is an automatic or manual transmission. I'm just assuming that it is an automatic and there is something wrong with the...
Hello. The erratic idling could be caused by several things: You could have a bad mass air flow sensor, the throttle position sensor could be bad, or the idle air control valve could be bad. This could also be an...
Passengers should never, under any circumstances, be in the cargo area of your car when the vehicle is in motion. The cargo area does not have sufficient safety features for passengers, and it is an illegal place for a passenger...

Te problem most likely exists in the power window motor/regulator assembly if the fuse is good. The fuse should be checked first, and if the fuse is good, the door panel will need to be removed to check the condition...
Hello, thank you for writing in. The power steering pump is a very common place for the system to leak fluid. The pump can mechanically fail, it can crack, and more commonly the gaskets and seal fail. With that being...
Hello, and thank you for writing in. There are a tremendous amount of reasons a vehicle will make excess noise while accelerating. If you think it sounds mechanical, metal on metal, then you may want to look into the transmission....
The vehicle may have had a problem with a computer sensor like the crankshaft sensor or camshaft sensor but normally they would have put a code into the computer. This is not a common problem and would need additional diagnostics...
Hello. If your Kia is idling at this rpm then the throttle plate may be sticking in one spot. It would be a good idea to start by cleaning out the throttle body. If that does not help then the...
Look around the reservoir, the reservoir cap, and the hoses to the reservoir and see were the leak is coming from. The leak could be a loose hose clamp, cracked hose, or a cracked reservoir. If you need further assistance...

Hi there, thanks for writing in. Quite often when the vehicle runs out of gas, especially on electronic fuel injected vehicles, the fuel pump may not have the required pressure to deliver gasoline to the fuel rail. In most cases...
If your car is equipped with a continuously variable transmission (CVT), then you have two places to look to determine what gear you’re currently in. You can look at the gearshift, but you can also look at the indicator light...
Your car comes with either a remote keyless entry (RKE) key fob, or a standard ignition key. The standard ignition key looks like any normal auto or home key, and operates the same way. To unlock your vehicle, insert the...
