Engine Clicking And Tapping Noises problems of the 2014 Kia Motor Sorento

I was driving going about 45 to 48 mph on a main road with traffice flowing faster than me and my car just shut off. The dash board lights all lid up. It was a scary moment for me as when I noticed and tried to break a little the brakes were locked and I couldn't break. I had to let the car roll until it came to complete stop. When it came to complete stop I turned the key and then I tried to restart the car and it would not restart it just did a clicking noise. The engine sounded horrible as it smelled burning and grinding metal pieces were heard. I have taken my car several times to the kia dealership becuase my engine light would turn on and off or sometimes just flash and wouldn't come back on. All kia said that it was the map sensor that needed to be replaced that was June 18, 2019, and now my car just won't start.

I was driving straight down a 2 lane highway at approx. 55 mph and the engine abruptly shut off. However, all electrical components still worked, including the a/c, lights, and the navigation screen. I didn't even have time to think about what I needed to do, but I was able to pull into someone's driveway, as there was no shoulder on the highway that I could pull over onto. After pulling off of the highway, I placed the vehicle in park and I turned it off. I tried to restart the vehicle and every light on the dash was illuminated, but it would not start . None of the electrical components worked now after shutting the car off. Heard a clicking sound when brakes were applied. I checked oil on dip stick and oil was fine. The vehicle had over a quarter tank of gas. No lights appeared on dash before it abruptly died. Called tow truck to come get it and take it to repair shop. Mechanic says it is showing the problem could be in the main brain of the vehicle, and I will have to have it towed to nearest kia dealer which is 2 hours away. I just purchased this vehicle approx. 3 months ago with roughly 75k miles on it. I am the second owner with no prior accidents. I am greatly concerned about this issue with my 2014 kia Sorento sxl, due to the fact that it could have caused an accident and someone could have been seriously injured due to the engine just abruptly dying. This needs to be recalled ASAP!.

2014 kia Sorento just quit working. Me and the family were driving down the interstate going 70mph and the car started making a loud ticking noise then just lost power and shut off. Luckily I was able to pull off the interstate safely.

Loud knockin/ticking noise when the vehicle is on. Backup camera malfunction, loose grip on the steering & at times,wheel does not turn on its own after turning. Oil is dirty & smells like gasoline. Purchased vehicle on 10/28 with about 70k miles. Here at the dealership to address these issues.

While driving at highway speed on a 2 lane highway and going up a medium incline, a ticking noise progressively got louder over the course of about 45 seconds to a minute until there was total loss of power, almost causing a collision from a vehicle behind me. No warning lights appeared on the dash as this was happening and engine temperature was normal. Luckily there was enough shoulder and had enough momentum to pull off to the side of the road. I was unable to restart the vehicle and had to have it towed. The vehicle fell under a safety recall which was reported to have been completed October 13, 2017. I am the original owner of the vehicle.

I have a 2014 kia Sorento sxl 3. 3 ltr v6 with 119, 952 miles on it. On 11/26/2018 after pulling in the drive way and existing the car I smelled what I believed to be an antifreeze smell. My car did not have any warning indicators on and my temperture gauge was normal. I took my car to dobbs on 11/27/2018, paid $30. 95 and told it was leaking head gaskets which cost $4500-$5000 to repair. I decided to call kia consumer affairs and had my car towed to a kia dealership for diagnostics and they decided I needed a motor, the cost would be $7600. I then called consumer affairs back and was told by the agent she would submit a request for a goodwill repair. Kia agreed to replace my motor as the technician diagnosed, but I am responsible for labor at $140/hour for 21. 4 hours. I really appreciate kia replacing the motor, obviously due to some type of defect. Wondering if there will soon be a recall on it. I've had 2 steering columns installed, alternator, lower oil pan and still a popping noise. I was told on the 4th time of complaining to dealer services, they tighten an axle nut. Well the nut must be loose again because the popping is back. Could this be a problem with the axle which has been recalled on other models?should my motor also have been a part of the motors most recently recalled. Could my strut have started leaking due to an adequate amount of corrosion substance not being applied ? I replacind my struts,rotors, breaks and 4 new tires. I love my car, this is my second kia. I am greatful, but a little disappointed about paying $3000. My 2 month old daughter passed away in her sleep on March 15. 2017 and left me with the stress of losing her, funeral cost and now this. I am a single mother; therefore money is tight. Cars similar to mine have caught on fire due to faulty motors and that is really a scary thought.

Recall : it isn't on recall list but having the same problems the other recalls for same vehicle and year. Was driving and engine stalled on the loop, I was almost hit by multiple cars. I finally got the kia to start and it began to make loud tapping noise and not letting rpms reach 3k. Nobody seems to want to help since the car only has 87k miles and now the engine is failing for no reason. I believe if the engine is doing the same thing as the other recalls, why haven't there been a recall on this kia. ?? I've tried calling dealers and etc nobody is helping me.

Vehicle displays no warning lights. Vehicle suddenly cut off in the middle of a busy road at an intersection, and upon trying to re-crank, it makes a loud knocking and clanking noise. Could only semi-operate car in neutral. Car will only cut on for about 5-10 seconds at a time. There was an open recall on this year and model vehicle, for this very same issue, but according to my VIN, my vehicle does not qualify for the recall although others do. It sounds like the rods are knocking to a highly extreme level.

"takata recall" I purchase my 2014 kia Sorento from a used dealer with 85,052 miles on it. In July I started hearing some loud popping noise so, I contacted my vehicle service contract and was advise that it needed to go to a shop, upon going to the shop it was diagnosis and I was told it had a sec147 engine recall dues to this issue back in September of 2017 this same vehicle had an sec147 engine recall also along with rear wheel speed sensor inside the hubs.

While reverising into a driveway the vehicle experienced low power, when the gas pedal was pressed for addition power there a clunking noise which resulted from a broken axle and engine mounting point on the engine itself.

On may 5, while driving on the 5 fwy, I felt my car loosing power and when I stop, my car shut off, I turn the car on, hear a clicking sound but was able to pull to the left lane emergency lane. Tow the car home and worked on the car, found that the engine bearing gave out. I check for replacement parts and found it was on a recall. Took the car to the dealer and dealer would not fix it due to trying to fix issue. It will cost 8000 dollars to fix out of pocket.
