hajdeen82 Posted December 30, 2012 Report Share Posted December 30, 2012 I have a 2011 KIA Sportage and I am getting a burning smell ( sort of plastic burning) from the AC vents whenever i accelerate immediately i.e when my rpm crosses above 3500. This lasts for a few mins and then the smell goes away. I had pointed out this in the KIA service center twice and i felt like they have reduced the pickup power, but the same problem is found to be repeating. Does anyone notice this kind of issue and is there any solution? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KiaDxb Posted December 30, 2012 Report Share Posted December 30, 2012 If car is still in warranty then they should able to fix this this issue and check all the wiring, harness and plastic sockets behind dahboard if something is getting burnt or melt in that area.

khandelwal Posted January 2, 2013 Report Share Posted January 2, 2013 did you get the problem sorted? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hajdeen82 Posted January 3, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 3, 2013 Not yet. I am planning to do the check in my next major service 60,000km. I think the KIA guys are aware of this issue as they are just reducing the Pickup power whenever i had pointed out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
