Kia Niro 2 2 weeks old flat battery and other glitches.
Hello, My Kia Niro 2 is just gone 2 weeks old from collection, I have the battery going flat, no central locking. Lane assist taking me off the motorway. In a reply from Kia, they told me have you tried pressing your stop start button. I do not have a stop start button. Below is what I told them, and now a few days ;ater still no reply= Hello Ronnie, Thanks for the reply, my wife has watched me drive the car up the street on setting 2 out of 3 regeneration. When I am off the throttle completely, there were no brake lights turned on automatically. We have now had 2 near misses on the motorway as wagons pull in front close, the car then brakes severely to keep the distance. The cars behind have flashed their lights and horns at us. Also going down the A1m Motorway 5am, wife the lane assist and cruise on. The car turned off the Motorway and started going up the slip road. So I had to commit to this, then rejoin. As you mentioned, I do not have a start stop button in the car. reg nu70fyn. We had just done the evening before, a motorway journey to Newcastle, 30 miles or so. Mainly Motorway and back again. Next morning, the key fob did not work, so I had to use the key. Then the reset Battery button. Which has wiped my setting on the car. The car has only done 500 miles and 2 weeks from collection. Is this going to keep happening during my ownership. Hope you can clarify my issues, as do not really want to contact the dealer, as not very helpful. Giving me the car with number plates not on DVLA system yet, telling me not to worry. thank you. They only told me on collection that I have to set the regen every journey and press the lane assist off before setting off etc. Very bad, this car has glitches, buy other make. No help from Kia.
