I bought a 2017 Kia Sportage with a salvage title at auction on [XXX] for my wife, [XXX]. It had 57,463 miles on the engine. Before it reached the 60,000-mile warranty limit (only for non-salvage title vehicles), it showed error code P1326 and went into limp mode which makes the vehicle drive at a very slow speed to avoid damage to the engine.

While pulling into a parking space with my foot on the brake, my engine accelerated as if it had a mind of it's own and hit a post. I pushed hard on the brake with no response. The airbag did not deploy even with $5,500 damage to the front end.

For the last 2-3 months my car has been randomly accelerating on its own, due to this I was recently (aug 14, 2018) in an at fault accident. I have called my dealership multiple times inquiring if there have been any recalls and there haven't been. I am currently in the service department (aug 18, 2018) having the problem looked at but have been told they might not be able to pin point the issue.

Tl* the contact owns a 2017 kia sportage. While driving approximately 75 MPH attempting to pass another vehicle, the speed dropped to approximately 50 MPH and the accelerator pedal did not respond when depressed. The contact drove the vehicle home at a very slow speed.

When starting to accelerate from the vehicle will start to move and then the engine rpms will drop to idle. At that time the car will not respond to the throttle. It seems to take from three to five seconds before the engine will respond to the accelerator being pushed.

I have had 4 instances of what feels like the car slipping out of "drive". While in drive, when I press on accelerator but while the RPM's go up, the car doesn't move.. Once I remove my foot and then press again on the accelerator, it proceeds normally.
