Rod failure, was told there was fuel mixing with the oil and caused the oil to break down and cause complete engine failure while driving down the highway with my kids. Kia will not do anything about it. How can this be right. I know a lot of people with the same issues.

Complete engine failure, knocking like crazy, fuel smell in the oil, The shop said the fuel in the oil broke it down and allowed the motor to fail. We were driving down the highway when it happened with family and kids which was not safe at all. No warning message at all, no check engine light, the shop has inspected and said it’s failed. The kia dealership has said many of the Kia’s have been recalled for engine failure but not ours? But others with the same motor have been.

Forward Collision Avoidance

When driving on freeways and using my cruise control….. If I need to use my brakes to disengage cruise control when traffic slows and then use the “resume” feature on the C.C. my vehicle continues to accelerate until I shut the cruise off and reset it. If I am resuming to say 65 MPH I can reach 85 MPH in a couple seconds. This happens more than 50 % of the times I use my C.C. As I continue to age and my reflexes slow, this issue becomes a safety issue for me.

I got an oil leak and it was covered but it caused a coolant leak and the dealership wants to charge me for this when it should be covered . Also I went a couple of times for my door coming open while I am driving and they didn’t fix it .

Engine

While driving through an intersection with my family in the car, the engine suddenly failed without warning, leaving us stranded in a dangerous situation with incoming traffic. The engine began smoking, shaking violently, and emitting a strong odor, making the vehicle undrivable. We also received a notification to have the engine checked, and the check engine light was blinking. The vehicle is currently at a dealership in Belvidere, IL. KIA informed us that our VIN is not included in any existing recalls or lawsuits. This situation has caused significant hardship, as we now have no car to drive for work or daily activities.
