What is your question?
I have an 2004 kia sorento and when I started it will run for about 10-15 minutes and then the car just cuts off or if I'm on the highway and I'm going about 65 60 sometimes it acts like it wants to cut off but then while hitting the gas it will start itself back up I just replace the alternator and battery in a few weeks ago car runs fine it starts right back up after cutting off this will happen maybe once or twice while driving but if the car is just sitting it will cut off a few times if it's just sitting and idling no idea what it is does anybody know

Hello, You may have one of several problems, and this one will need diagnostic work. I'd like to avoid speculation on this, because information on this issue will be completely guess-work. There are a couple simple things to check, make sure the air tube from the throttle body to the air cleaner is correctly installed, and not cracked. And check to see if the fuses and relays are clicking when they should. Let me know your questions, and I'll get back with you ASAP. If you prefer to have the vehicle diagnosed, you can view the list of certified shops in your area here: http://repairpal.com/kia-within-10-miles-of-keysville-virginia-23947
I have owned a 2004 kia sorento since day 1. I have had several things done over the almost 14 years of owning this car but did most of it while under warranty. Try checking around to see if this vehicle has had all the recall work done first before spending anything on it. There also was an issue with the crankshaft pulley bolt failing. I will buy another because of the warranty alone. At 99 k on the mileage, I had it checked stem to stern and would advise anyone to do the same before it expires. Nice to have no car payments for 6 years. Overall it has been a good car with just a little maintenance. I keep all records of what is done while under warranty.
