2010 kia Forte; 113,000 miles. Check engine light came on. Code read �3rd engine bank sensors. � dealership diagnosed the problem as �knocking rods coming apart inside the engine. � the dealership currently has two kia Fortes in the shop with the same mileage and problem. Seems like a pattern.
Knocking in engine noticed white starting and driving. Check engine light illuminated leaving oil change at 86k miles (12/27/2018). Moments later, vehicle wouldn't go above 60mph entering highway. All lights illuminated on the dash, pulled over on ramp and turn vehicle off. Vehicle wouldn't start and was towed to mechanic. Mechanic got vehicle to start and heard knocking. Identified coming from the engine and vehicle was turned off. Mechanic advised vehicle to be towed to dealer due to recent engine recalls. Vehicle was towed to the dealer and is pending diagnostic. I am not the original owner and the "10 year/100,000 mile" warranty does not apply to me. Hopefully they are honest and honor the repair/replacement.
Hello, I am currently having issues with my 2010 kia Forte. The vehicle has been struggling to accelerate and soon eventually began to feel as if it were going to stall out all together every time I stepped on the gas. The check engine light came on and after diagnosing the code, it read p0336 (crankshaft position sensor a circuit range/performance). After some research I found that apparently there is a recall on these engines for what appears to be the same issue I am currently having. I looked up my vehicles VIN on this website and was notified that there is not currently an open recall even though I had just read that hundreds of thousands of vehicles of the same make and engine type (theta 2) were being recalled for crankshaft issues. Would like to have my car checked out via recall measures. The safety of my family is in question due to these known issues.
The contact owns a 2010 kia Forte. While driving at approximately 35mph, the check engine warning light illuminated. The steering wheel then locked and the vehicle stalled. The contact was able to restart the vehicle and the vehicle resumed normal operation. The dealer did a test drive but was unable to duplicate the failure. A diagnostic test was performed but did not produce any failure codes. There were no repairs. The failure and current mileage was 1,246.
2010 kia Forte purchased brand new on 10/17/09. 1st time taken in to dealership for check engine light being on (10/27/09) dealership stated that it was code po304--misfire #4 they stated that there was a glitch in the system and updated the computer. Diagnostic being cleared. 2nd time taken in on 11/11/09 for the check engine light being on once again and the same code coming up po304. Also 8 different recalls on the car including gas cap, cruise control, transmission, computer system and others of the same nature. Also the car is accelerating by it self. They are going back and forth with kia corporate head quarters and they still do not know how to fix any of the problems. Kia agreed to put me in a rental car and that is what I am remaining to drive at the present time.
