Car Will Not Start problems of the 2013 Kia Motor Soul

Vehicle will just randomly not start. Get in car turn on key and nothing, lights, radio, ect all work, but car will not start. So far if you wait a short time and try again it starts and all is fine. I thought that it was the battery so I replaced it and all was good for about 6 months, and then about 2 weeks ago it did the same thing, would not start. Went about my business in another car, came home about 1 hour later, got into car and it started right up and has been fine since. I have gone online and have seen this is a common problem, but there does not appear to be anything that the dealer can do. They replace different parts, but it occurs again. Lots on money being spent and no results to be had. Very frustrating . This has happen about 15 times in the last year, but it does start if you wait awhile. At least my has, but I note that others have not.

Tl- the contact owns a 2013 kia Soul. The contact stated that while turning in either direction a clanking type noise was present coming from the front of the vehicle. Also on several occasions the vehicle would not start and the battery power had drained. After taken the vehicle to an independent mechanic the contact was informed that the batter was not faulty. The cause of the failures were not determined. The local dealer hollywood kia(6011 pembroke rd. Hollywood FL) was notified of the failures. The manufacturer was not contacted. The failure mileage was 43,000. Jft.

Battery replaced 2/18. Installed w/ rotors & brake pads by dealership after this my car would not start. It was parked in my driveway. It would not even make a noise. All the dashboard lights went on. Alarm worked (installed by dealership). I got our of car locking it & tried to start manually, still nothing. 1 of the times I tried it the radio went on. After appr. 6x's the car started but idling extremely low. Kia dealership got the car that day, they had car for 9 days & could not replicate issue. I got car back 3 wks later same issue. Clock had been behind 20ish min that wk. I thought it was odd. 3/18/18 (same wk car time was off), I tried starting many x's. Everything was the same, I noticedi when dashboard lights on,I don't have. Radio would go on & off. I called kia,car was not starting, I was having it towed to them. Made video of trying to start car. The car is at the dealership again. They mentioned replacing ignition. If you google kia Soul starting issues, there are pages of them. All with same description. Dealership could not replicate issue. There is something wrong electrically in some of the Souls. It didn't appear to be limited to any particular year. Dealerships know about this issue, don't know what to do and randomly replace things. Didn't fix issue. People online stated they got so frustrated and traded in vehicle. I hope it does not come to that with me. There should be a recall or remedy for this situation. If you google it you will get so many pages on this issue with kia Soul, all years. So the problem is unknown, could potentially cause harm. I have a very clear short video 1min 30 sec.
