Kia says it needs new intake cover that is on backorder, but should I be worried about something more than that? I asked for the car to be replaced but dealer has 3 day policy only and I owned it for 12 days. And has been in shop for the last week starting on week 2.

Hi reglein5,

Seems Kia has found some technical problem with the vehicle and parts are not available so you would have to bear with it till parts arrive.

Misfiring should not be anything to worry about but it would affect the performance so you need to be careful when overtaking or requires fast acceleration.
