What is your question?
i keep receiving this alert (check charging systems) after driving for a bit and it seems tobe happening more and more frequently. i have take it to a certifired shop, however they were not able to help me because no error or system codes are being stored. i have called carmax and since it is hybrid they are telling me i have to go thru a kia dealership. WIll the issue or diagnostic be covered under my maxcare warranty? I do not want to keep paying different shops diagnostic fees to not have the problem fixed. I dont know what to do! please help
What makes this problem better or worse?
paying attention to engine vs battery usage during driving and not using AC
How long has your 2013 Kia Optima had this problem?

Hello, as far as warranty coverages go, it's best to check with the customer service folks - check your contract for a toll free number to contact them with your questions. This Q&A is really for car care maintenance and repair; unfortunately cannot speak to specific contract coverages; those of us who answer in these forums are experienced in the repairs and maintenance part. As far as your concern, "check charging systems" will never set a diagnostic trouble code, as it's not powertrain, chassis or body module related. The concern will definitely need to be duplicated by whoever is performing the testing, and once this happens, a good tech will be able to figure out the concern pretty quickly. Good luck!
