Alternator/generator/regulator problems of the 2013 Kia Motor Soul

The contact owns a 2013 kia Soul. The contact stated while driving 50 mph, the battery light illuminated. The contact stated that the alternator failed to operate as designed. Due to the alternator failure, the vehicle loss power steering functionality. The vehicle was not taken to be diagnosed nor repaired. Neither the dealer nor the manufacturer were notified of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 185,000.

Car wont start, intermittently. Got a new battery and then all of a sudden the car would start. Lights come on the dash but car wouldn't start, quick jump and car started right up. This kept happening so I thought I had gotten a bad battery. Replaced the battery with a new one and a week later the same thing starting happening. The car wouldn't start. Took it to the automotive shop because I thought it might be the alternator. They had it for 3 days and everything checked checked out fine, could find a problem and couldn't duplicate this. Took car home and 3 days later the same thing the car wont start. Quick jump starts right up and lasts for about 3 days and wont start again. There are a lot of complaints about this starting issue on the kia Soul with customers and no one seems to be able to find the problem, they all seem to be the same issue and when we take it in they are unable to duplicate it. This needs to be looked into.
