2013 kia sorrento engine making noise like sewing machine. Brought to kia dealer. After 3 hours was told nothing wrong with engine. Try high test gas. Brought car home and the engine blew. We told dealer about the recall again there is nothing wrong with your vehicle. It has a good strong engine. I have contacted the dealership and kia manufacturer. Waiting for callbacks. This happened today 6/5/20.

I was driving my car and all of a sudden it started to reduce in speed, I saw the engine light come on, then as I tried to push the accelerator the cars rpm would no go past 2, so I drove to a auto zone and rhey checked the error, that said they did not know what it was, so as I was driving home the car started making a noise as id there qas metal on metal, I stopped my car and had to call a tow truck to bring home, after doing some research I found out the code was for some bearings.

I have taken my 2013 kia Sorento to my local dealership after the latest engine recall. They replaced the dipstick,. No explanation why but the level lines are different. Recently took it back to the dealership for a grinding, vibration noise in the front end, no issue reported. The past 2 oil changes which I do every 3k. Miles there has been no oil. Yesterday, I was driving, still had about 1k miles left before the 3k mile oil change and my oil light started flashing. Immediately took it to my mechanic who again said there was no oil. My car is not leaking oil anywhere.

Have not had any problems other then having to put 2 quarts of oil in the motor every other day and it stalling to the point of almost cutting off when I start to take off. I got up put oil in the car started my day as usual, ran errands and the parked the car as usual. Went to get in it the next day and the engine light was on. Started to drive it and it made the sound as if it was misfiring. Later that day had my mechanic look at it and he said what I thought it was plugs. So I changed the plugs and coil packs and it did not change a thing. Still had that noise and when you are going down the road it will start shaking and have to gear down. Called kia customer service they said it was part of the 147 recall even though it showed that it had been fixed in 2018. I explained that it shook when driven that plugs and coil packs have been changed, had to fill up on oil instead of gas and that the oil had gas in it. Told me it would cost me 230 out of pocket to have it towed. Next day took it too kia dealership who said I would have to wait until the motor locked up before they could do anything. Finally got them to look at it and they said the motor was bad. It was not safe to drive it anymore because it could caught fire or cause an accident. But yet not part of the recall said I would have to pay for all the repairs out of pocket. Not only did kia customer service and NHTSA both said it was part of the 147 recall. I am with out a vehicle and still have to pay for one that I can't even drive or get fixed.

The vehicle was traveling at about 45-50 mph on a major roadway when suddenly it made a noise and lost power. Couldn't immediately pull off the road and was only able to travel at 15-20 mph, with emergency flashers on, until a safe pull off could be identified.

Takata recall. I was driving in the freeway when it started to make a noise immediately I pulled out to park but it got stuck . And power off. I tried to turned on but didn't work. I had to called. The tow to bring it at home.

My son was driving our 2013 kia Sorento with 57,000 miles on it when it started making a strange noise. He pulled over to check under the hood. He didn't see anything obvious and preceded to drive home. As he pulled out onto the city street the kia stalled. We then had to call a tow truck, get it towed to the kia in amarillo, TX. The dealership said that the engine had locked and it needs to be replaced. They also said that our kia was not covered by the recall! even though it is stalling just like all the other models included in the recall.

Engine had been making a noise (humming and grinding) when vehicle was operating between 40mph and 60 mph. Brought to kia dealer who stated it was the new tires we bought from meineke. Brought vehicle to meineke who said it was not the tires. Was driving vehicle and while exiting highway the engine shut off and had to pull off to the side of the road under 0 power. Vehicle would not start even though there was still battery power. Vehicle was towed to meineke who told me that there was no oil in the engine. We had an oil change done in may 2018 at the milford CT kia and was not due for another oil change until October 2018. The vehicle had approximately 800 more miles to reach the 3000 mile mark for an oil change also. I had the vehicle towed to milford kia who is still examining the issue. Kia stated they would check with Kia Motors to ascertain if this issue is covered by a current engine recall for 2013 kia sonatas.

I was driving in a highway to work, when the car started to slow down, puttered a bit quickly shut off and on- and then the engine picked up and started making a noise. I pushed on the gas and the engine churned up smoke and the car started slowing down as cars were coming up behind me on the highway! one car stopped quickly behind me, as the car came to a slow pace. The engine didn't turn off but then it clinked for the rest of the 400ft as I pulled in and parked it. I could only go 10miles per hour or slower the rest of the highway.

Kia recall: while driving at 60 mph on a two lane highway, the engine seized up on my 2013 kia Sorento with 78000 miles on it. The company that rebuilt the engine said it was due to a loss of oil pressure. However the oil was full and clean and was 1000 miles below its next scheduled oil change. The engine did not make any noises prior to the failure. Kia states that the VIN # on my Sorento is not part of the recent recall on their engines that are failing in this same manner. I had the engine rebuilt (at a very hefty price) and am looking for reimbursement.
