This is some scary !@#$% (bleep) !!!

Runaway Kia in Missouri

My husband had told me there are foreign cars that have done this in the past.  For me, this is just another reason not to like Kia's.  And yes, all the more reason to insist that all foreign cars are not created equal.

 The story was first reported by ABC News a couple of weeks ago.  A woman from Iowa was driving down I-35 when her accelerator got stuck.  She drove for 59 miles as her 2011 Kia Sorento sped to 115 miles per hour.

 Of  course she had a police escort and was on the phone with 911 this entire time.  They gave her the advice to lift up on the stuck accelerator and push down on the brake.  And that did work.  I bet you never saw anyone so excited to see a state trooper.

 Kia Motors says they are unable to to duplicate this problem.  My thought on that is even if you could duplicate this problem I'm not sure I would share that with the public.  I might keep that on the down low! As for Ms. Ulvestad, I am glad she is okay.  If I was her I would be spending a lot of time with an attorney!

 Thoughts?.........
