Carrier/rack Problems of Kia Motor Forte

Pulling out drive way going to the left felt like passenger wheel was locking up and does it quite a bit. Also ntb in cleveland, TN said there was lots wrong with under neath , also it still feels like it's running after being cut off. And it has a rim that is cracked and when I got it I thought it needed tires cause I had to air tire every day or so but now it's more than a few times daily and I just learned how unsafe that is to be driving for my kids and I but for others as well.

I purchased the 2020 kia Forte last April 2020. The trunk latch would not open trunk, reported, serviced it still presented tight leverage function during stable park position. The computer scrambled the 1st or 2nd week of owning it during my early morning highway travel the computer scrambled more than once. I contacted kia- thier response was not helpful to the new car malfunction. It happened more than once. The lane departure did not work at diferent periods in time; within the year I reported to kia. The windshield cracked during first frost. Kia claimed rock chip. I had just serviced cabin filter area, kia relentlessly assumed rock chip, I believe defected glass. The first frost it cracked 2nd frost within 2week time or less split crack across windshield. The gas and milage were not stablly operating was out of sync during highway travels. I now for the last week noticed a noise in my car engine when in park turning it off. I am unhappy with my purchase and the kia dealership I purchased it from. I have pictures of reported dash computer malfunctions, and an unwilling dealership to assist with my vehicle. I am concerned with my safety, my passengers safety, and safety in my future drive. I put date of April 20, 2020 because it was roughly when malfunctions began to occure. The trunk latch immediately 4/10/2020 or at purchase date upon arriving home.

I purchased this vehicle Dec. 2017 with 318 miles. Vehicle began to sputter when trying to start. First time, towed in was told nothing was wrong. Went home, next morning the vehicle sputtered to start. After 3rd try & loud sounding, I popped the hood & the entire engine was shaking in its cradle. Towed in again, dealership diagnosed coils misfire & replaced. Vehicle duplicated the same problem a week later. I replaced the battery. Vehicle would not start again the next day. Third time, dealership diagnosed fuel pump but ended up replacing the entire fuel injection system because replacing the fuel pump did not fix the matter. They had my vehicle for 2 full weeks. Had the vehicle back 2 days, vehicle would not start but continued to sputter. Dealership has now had my vehicle 5 weeks, first said they couldn't get it to duplicate the problem but kept my vehicle anyway. Then said coils were bad even though they just replaced them 3 months ago something is causing the coils to misfire. I have no answers. Even with kia consumer affairs involved, no one has an answer. At one point kia consumer affairs called to ask me how the vehicle was running because the dealership told them they did not even have my vehicle anymore. I thought I was going to have to make a report to my insurance carrier. My vehicle has 30,000. I've maintained regular oil changes & other required maintenance as suggested, faithfully.

Trunk is constantly popping open, although no one is hitting the button on the keys nor pulling the lever. I can be in the house with my keys on the counter and it will pop open. Actually had stuff stolen because of this. This will happen whether it is stopped, when I'm driving, anywhere. I don't have to hit a bump or anything. Radio is crackly and cuts out and beeps but only when playing bluetooth. When I use an aux or just fm it works perfect.

The front window cracked with the defrosters on. It was 35 degrees outside temp. The crack started outside the area from the defrosters. 2 to 3 inches above the bottom of the window. It only cracked on the inside. No stone marks on the outside.

The tpms light came on. Within three miles I pulled into a service station to check my tire pressure and discovered that my driver's side rear wheel tire stem was cracked and leaking air. This is the second time a stem on this car has cracked. In both cases I had not hit any potholes or did anything to cause this damage. Kia forums report that this seems to be a problem with kia Fortes and souls.
