My 2017 kia Forte has major engine problems after only 130,000 miles. The car just died on my son going down the road and after it started make loud knocking noise. There was no warning lights on at all. The engine is done for. I am the only owner of this car and have kept it maintanced well. I have realized after reading all the other people with issues that the oil pump on the car have cause engine damage and kia has replaced engines. I do believe this is what has caused my troubles.
2017 kia Forte check engine light turned on and was heading to mechanic. While driving the car completely died while driving and all warning lights came on. Oil pan flashed on so oil change was done on spot. The car drove fine then days later same issue occurred. Got car towed to a mechanic for the mechanic to tell me there were foreign particles stuck in both the oil pump and oil pan that led to engine damage now needing a new engine. Take my car to kia dealership for the recall that I seen online for possible engine failure due to faulty oil pump and kia is not honoring the recall since it has a date posted for later this year in June.
