Engine Oil Leaking Problems of Kia Motor Forte

An engine fire recall has already been issued relating to fuel and oil leaks for my vehicle. On two occasions I've taken my car in for repair service to their first kia dealership in simi valley CA, and both times they've refused to complete repairs, saying the manufacturer's repair servers were down and inaccessible for the necessary service. On the most recent appointment (April 9), the service rep told me he'd give me a call once the repair system was back online, but that call never happened. Kia has not replied to my requests regarding this impairment of theirs. Meanwhile my car is burning through 1-3 quarts of oil a week, those gallons of oil loss have already cost me one contaminated catalytic converter, and I lack the work flexibility to continue scheduling fruitless repair visits. My car has a flaw that this recall should fix, but between the dealership and the manufacturer there has been an inability to provide that repair. The ongoing pursuit of those solutions has left me at risk of losing work should this nonsense continue- much of my scheduling flexibility has been exhausted.

My car left my child stranded on the interstate in orangeburg on the way home to macedonia, SC. It was in motion when the vehicle shut off and she had to coast to the side of the road. Apparently there is a recall on my engine & I never received it. I now have a unusable car in the shop that needs a new engine due to oil leaking. It is currently at shop life @ 2005 n main st, summerville SC (843) 475-9366.

Oil leaks from the engine due to a threading problem, has happened more than once and I have had to get my vehicle towed and worked on at a shop. The vehicle started pouring oil while driving on a 35mph road. The vehicle started shaking as well. I have videos of the car and the noise it made.

We were not experiencing any issues with the vehicle. My husband was driving home from work in the city and the car stopped running due to engine issues. It appears to be exactly what is in the recent recall but our car is not included. There was an oil leak that was not noticeable at all.

Purchased a 2014 kia Forte from a new/used auto dealership in late June 2020. The vehicle had been recently serviced by the dealership at the time of sale. On August 2nd, the engine began to knock and the check oil light turned on sporadically a two or three times over the course of about a ten minute drive. The light never stayed on for more than 1 second each time. Because of the light, we drove the vehicle to a mechanic about two miles away. The engine failed as the mechanic started to look at it. The vehicle was towed to the kia dealership where they indicated that the engine had seized and will need to be replaced. There was no evidence of leaked oil prior to this event. Dealer reported shavings in the oil pan. There was no adequate vehicle system warning, for any reasonable period of time, to indicate there was an oil issue.

My car shakes when you hit the brakes//doesnt drive smooth at all. Somehow the oil leaks through the rings in the engine and I cannot keep oil in it. I refill the whole oil container at least once a month now and put oil stabilizer in it. If I get an oil change, it is empty the next week.

I was driving the motor just went out. I check the oil it was leaking out.

On July 17,2019 my kia Forte 2014 stop on I-75 northbound in perry, GA with a 18 wheeler on my tail @80mph. I had no power it just cut off. This was after a oil change @ walmart in cordele, GA 13 days earlier there was no oil and it had run out from the filter. Both ase certified mechanic @ hutchinson kia and an independent certified mechanic. Dealer couldn't determine leakage,second sound the engine was cracked caused problem. It was a dangerous situation for my daughter her life was in danger in fast high volume interstate traffic. The engine has a deficiency in these gdi engines,should recalled. I was told by a reliable souce that both the kia's and their sister company share the same engine and there have been problems with both engine type gdi 2014 model kia Forte and other models with this kind of engine.

Tl the contact owns a 2016 kia Forte. The contact noticed fluid underneath the vehicle. Later, while driving, the low oil message displayed and the engine began to stall. The vehicle was towed to moritz kia (11210 n. Freeway, ft worth, TX) where it was diagnosed that the oil pan plug detached and caused oil to leak from the engine. The plug was replaced and oil was added to the engine. The vehicle was repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The VIN was not available. The failure mileage was 40,000.

I had report the issue to kia of tupelo, ms. My card has had two recent issues. The first one being that upon acceleration, white smoke has been noted twice. The car has stalled out twice upon take off on the highway/interstate. This concern me greatly! on my most recent oil change, it was discovered that I have at least two quarts of oil shortage, with no leaks noted.

I was changing the oil on my car and noticed that a hose below the car broke and was leaking some type of fluid. I noticed this about 30 minutes ago, but the issue could have been going on for much longer.
