Hello:

Amanti stalls and then restarts after I turn it off and turn the ignition. It usually does it on highways. It is sporadic, and I used different grades of gas. The engine lights is also on after it stalls.
KIA has not been able to figure it out without it stalling.

Please advise.

Thanks

Does it startt during cruising oer when accelerator is depressed? Does it stall only at high speed? If yes, have the fuel filter and delivery system checked for clogging. The engine could be stalling due to fuel starvation.
