Engine Oil Leaking problems of the 2015 Kia Motor Optima

We purchased this car brand new and we have had to replace the engine and starter twice due to oil leaking through exhaust. No oil leaks on ground were visible. No lights warning low oil. Both time car broke down on road. About two years apart. We replaced parts with used motors as that's what we could afford.

My car is rapid losing oil in between regular oil changes. I have to constantly put oil in weekly and there not has there ever been any leaks. The oild is burning off way faster then it should burn. So on top of routine maintenance I have to purchase oil on top of it. The timing chain is suffering due to the engine going dry way too fast. This is a recall issue there is nothing wrong with my vehicle. This is very dangerous for someone unaware of this type of issue. The oil turns black quicker then it should as well. My mechanic said you all need to replace these right away or something bad is going to happen. It has taken a year for me to figure out how to report this issue.

I was headed from ohio to michigan and all of a sudden it won't let me accelerate anymore and I get this burning smell and then all the dash lights start flashing and then the car just completely stops I pop the hood open on the side of the road and it's leaking oil which is not my fault cause I just got the oil changed and then the car just refuses to start now I can get the lights on and stuff but as for the engine turning over it's just not gonna happen and I'm surprised kia hasn't had a recall on anything at all for these engines cause there are so many complaints about them.

My daughter's car, kia Optima 2015, had been brought in for engine repair for it died in the middle of the freeway a couple of years ago, since then, she tells me that she has been adding 3 quarts of oil every week and sometimes she finds the engine empty of oil from the dipstick. When she came home, I monitored the driveway where she parks to look for oil leakage but I didn't find any leakage of oil in my driveway. My daughter is not safe in this car, unfortunately she uses this care to go to school and we don't have the capability to purchase another car. Please look into this problem that kia Optima is undermining and overlooking. I am not the only one reporting this issue from what I have read. For the consumers, you are the only ones we can turn to in times like this. I hope that you would consider looking into this problem by kia corporation.

I have a 2015 kia Optima purchased in October 2017 with 34k miles approx. I am constantly putting oil in my car and it seems to evaporate in 2-3 days. There is no leak and we have no idea why the car is consuming so much oil. Lately the car has been knocking and when accelerating to merge onto highway, the vehicle starts to sputter and begins to stall. I do not feel safe in this vehicle with my children and no longer use this vehicle on a daily basis. After doing some research, I find that this year vehicle has the most overall consumer complaints and there still has yet to be a recall on the engine? I do not understand why kia skipped this year?? let alone blame consumers that it's their fault for not following the maintenance schedule, yet when told the schedule has been followed, will find some other lame excuse so the manufacturer is not at fault. What is it going to take to have this engine recalled? we as consumers, myself, a single hard working parent, do not have the means to buy another vehicle just because kia says it's not their fault. This problem started beginning of April 2019, my vehicle has 52k.
