brakes

Asked by GuruT8CJN Jul 11, 2018 at 11:23 AM about the 2018 Kia Soul Base

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

I am driving a new Kia Soul and when I'm driving slowly it feels as if the brakes
are engaged, not fully, but enough to make it feel like it's dragging.  Anyone
have that experience?

It might be the transmission helping to slow down when you let off the gas. That is normal in most cars. But if it's your brakes dragging, that's not normal and you can tell by the brakes getting unusually hot for no apparent reason. In that case have the dealer take a look as it is still under warranty.
