Engine Grinding Noise problems of the 2013 Kia Motor Optima

On may 10, 2020 @7:32 am I was driving home from work and came to a stop light when the light turned green my car stalled and all the lights on the dashboard turned on. I pulled over and started the back up and made it home. The next day I drove about 10 miles and the car seemed fine but as I get to the stop light the car started making a grinding sound like metal and I couldn't accelerate so I pulled over and the car died in a residential area. The next morning I call aaa and had car towed back to my home. The next day aaa came out again and checked my battery, starter, and system something and they were all working good. I called steve schmitt kia on halls ferry road and asked was there another recall on my car for the engine, the lady paused and then said "we don't have the parts yet, " she then said hold on and came back and said "we don't have any recalls on this car. On October the 1 , 2019 I took my car to kia for a recall on my motor and looking at the receipt they replaced element air filter, adjusted alignment four wheels, mount and balance 2 tires, replaced cabin air filter plus a oil change which I paid for. My car has been sitting since may 13, 2020 . I frequently go out and check it and it starts and I hear a knocking sound . ( engine fail).

I was on the expressway and went to move to the second lane it was fine except I my car began to stall and slow down making this grinding noise when I tried to gain speed. . . All the lights came on and I couldn't go faster than 30 miles per hour. All while incoming traffic was coming at me going about 60 miles per hour I had to gain composure. Put on my hazards and pull over. . . It wouldn't let me go above 20 when I pulled over. . . . I was freaking scared once I pulled over I was shaking and crying had to gain composure. . . I believe I caught this on my dash cam. I fucking hate this kia. . . It by grace my kids weren't in the car with me and that the van behind me switched lanes at the last second. . . . I have taken my kia 2 times to the kia repair dealership, the first one was free the second time I had to pay 145 just to be seen. Mind you I went to the kia repair dealership in berwyn and they say it's fine. . . . It's not fine that my car couldnt go above 30 miles on the express way, it's not fine that I was almost in a collision it's not fine. Kia will not repair these cars until someone dies. . . . I can't take this chance with my children. I will borrow my mom's Toyota until this problem is rectified. I am a single mom my kids only source of income and support I don't have time to be off from an injury that may occur or lack of reliable transportation. I will have to see if my dash cam caught the incident before my car shut off. . . I will send it later if it did.
