My car has a new engine in it with a new battery but won't start

Asked by Cindy May 03, 2022 at 03:58 PM about the 2015 Kia Optima EX

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

Kia replaced my engine, and it started a couple of times. But now it won't start
at all. Put a new battery in it, still didn't start. The lights will come on sometimes
and the automatic lock works sometime. So what could be the problem with it
not starting????

Call the Dealer and have them tow it in and fix it for free! Sounds like a bad electrical connection somewhere. Hope that helps! Jim
