What are some of the kia rio speed sensor problems?

Some potential problems with a faulty speed sensor in a Kia Rio can lead to an erratic speedometer, higher revving before shifting, and not shifting into overdrive. Your vehicle's engine speed sensor, or vehicle speed sensor as it is also known, sends information to your car's computer about how fast the car's engine is spinning at any particular moment. The sensor does this by recording how fast the crankshaft of your vehicle is spinning. The speed sensor can get damaged or cracked. Also, the plastic portion of the sensor can become brittle after prolonged exposure to the elements. The magnetic portion of the sensor may also become worn and damaged over time.
