Dead Dead Battery!
Lee, Tacoma, WA, 10/14/2015
2014 Kia Sorento SXL 4dr SUV (3.3L 6cyl 6A)
I have a 2014 Kia Sorento SXL with 13,000 miles now. After having this car for 2 weeks go to start it and dead battery. Now 18 months later this problem has happened 7 times! Kia road service has to come out and jump it. Has been towed to dealership to check it out, told everything is fine. I'm just not driving it enough to keep it charged. Went on vacation for six days and left … car at airport and came back to a dead battery. When I say dead I mean DEAD. No lights etc...at all. After 7 times and getting no where with Kia service dept. I don't know what to do other then trade it in on another make! Any help or ideas why this is happening would help.
