Engine Oil Leaking problems of the 2012 Kia Motor Soul

It's only seven years old, but it leaks engine oil and a very large metal bump and knocking coming from the engine. It can be heard very loud even outside the car. I'm very worried if the engine is on fire or if it stops suddenly. In korea, the government has already recommended that the car's engine be repaired free of charge. I want to be solved well in the u. S.

Vehicle has 96000 miles. While driving on highway began to hear rattling and pinging. Attempted to make it to rest area to pull over and inspect. Heard loud bang and engine stalled. Coasted into rest area. Inspection revealed oil leaking from hole blown in lower engine block.

Vehicle at 155000 miles. Driving up hill on a a road I drive every day to work. 0510, going 60 mph at 4000 rpms up the hill. Sound/felt engine explode. Pulled to the side of the road to inspect. Oil had leaked out and could not see damage. Got it tow home and found that a piston rod had broke and gone threw the bottom of the engine pan.

Was driving on the express way behind a semi. When the semi got over in the right lane I accelerated and herd a loud bang and dark smoke started coming from my engine. It smelled often and impaired my vision. Several of my causation light illuminated and I was stuck at 60 mph my car would not accelerate and stopped working. I got over in the right lane safely and coasted for about a mile and a half to the nearest exit. Something told me do not put your foot on the brakes or you will be in serious trouble. As I got of the exit I started to brake and my car stopped and died. Oil was leaking out and nothing was working. I had to get people to push me off to the side of the road and get a tow to the dealership. They told me I had catastrophic engine failure. So my engine failed me and I could have been killed. I did research and there have been many kia's with recall and very similar situations as mine but not with my model car. I am sure this is a manufactures error and I pray kia does a recall to protect people's lives.

Car had an oil change and was washed then came home. Car's front defroster was noted to be stuck on and white smoke started to billow out from under the hood. Quick check under the car noted a flame that was either coming from the catalytic converter or reflecting in the exhaust from somewhere on the bottom/side of the engine. No fluids were shown to be leaking onto the driveway or were visible. Car then rapidly went up in flames and was a complete loss. Fire department had to put out.
