2014 KIA SORENTO with 11000.0 miles

Approximately one month ago my check engine light came on (P2098) in my 2014 Kia Sorento ex v6 gdi with about 11,000 miles on the odometer. I took it in to Kia. They stated it was a kinked wire. Last week, check engine light returns (P2098). It was checked this time and a reason could not be found. A techline folder was opened and it was researched with Kia engineers who said they are aware of this problem in other Sorentos. They are searching for the answer to the problem and i am to continue to take my Sorento to the dealer when the check engine light turns on so that they have a record of it. They are supposed to let us know when a solution has been found so it can be repaired. I just don't know how long this is going to go on before a fix is in place.
